Status Updates From Budi takva kakva jesi

Incentive salience: wanting. The generic accelerator of the emotional brain; it feels the desire to move towards something or away from it. When wanting is activated with a stress response mechanism, we search for safety. With attachment mechanism, we seek affection. With sexual accelerator, we pursue sexual stimulation.

3 bad experiences vs 3 good

- specifically, what made them bad or good? Internal state, external circumstances, etc.

Concept of accelerators and brakes in sexual stimuli. Existing together, but separately, and each affecting an individual’s experiences related to desire

Ex:

Brake: grandma walking into bedroom, PETA ad, family dinner, etc.

Accelerator: grey sweatpants (I can’t), etc.
