防止成癮，從自己做起，我們就能讓這整個世界煥然一新。預估到了2040年，日常的休閒時間在美國會達到7.2小時，工作時數則會僅剩3.8小時。人類生活的更富足、更新奇，需要更強的刺激才有快感。換句話說，就是人們會比現在更容易上癮。我們活在一個基本生存需求獲得充分滿足的時代，用在食、衣、住、行、育、樂的可支配所得、下班後的休閒時間都是如此。然而，生活過度富足本身就是一種壓力源，導致人們成癮、憂鬱、焦慮和自殺的比率上升。各種調查報告都告訴我們，人類比起三十年前，更不快樂、更憂鬱，也更焦慮。令人費解的是，一個國家愈是富有，心理健康治療愈是普及，國民就愈不快樂、憂鬱和焦慮。本書作者蘭布克醫師將這個現象稱為「富足的矛盾」（Plenty Paradox），生活過度豐足讓人們持續暴露在唾手可得的快感之中，導致大腦發生了改變。她提醒我們，當我們在做喜歡的事情的時候，像是追劇、滑手機、打電玩，大腦會釋出少量的多巴胺這種獎勵的神經傳導物質，讓我們感覺到「爽」。但是，神經科學發現在大腦裡，「爽」和「痛」是在同一個區域處理。大腦非常努力地想要維持「爽」和「痛」的平衡。一旦這個翹翹板偏向了某一邊，我們的大腦就會設法倒向另一邊，試圖恢復翹翹板的平衡。DOPAMINE是多巴胺的英文，也是一組英文字首縮寫，書中的每一章都對應DOPANINE裡一個不同的字母，它們分別是：Data（資料）、Objectives（目的）、Problems（問題）、Abstinence and Asceticism（禁慾和苦行）、Mindfulness（正念）、Insight (and Radical Honesty)（病識感［和徹底的誠實］）、Next Steps（下一步），和Experiment（實驗）。本書希望提供「爽痛平衡」的資源，讓每個人都可以從自己做起，協助所有人在這個爽痛拉鋸環境中，找出自己的一條路。蘭布克醫師建議閱讀本書的順序是： 1.第一到第四章讀完並做完所有練習，然後再進行第四章中介紹的多巴胺齋戒； 2.在多巴胺齋戒期間，讀完第五和第六章； 3.在多巴胺齋戒的尾聲，讀完第七章和第八章。她建議讀者，這本實踐篇的任何一個部分，都沒有你必須要去完成的特定時間線，你完全可以自己決定自己的速度。做習題的時候，
