What’s my favorite high?!
non-drug
Aight imma head out
Wait but… what do I do with all my notes?
Fresh clear water when you’re alarmingly thirsty.
Its like wine on your wedding dayyyyy
Having a really good piss
I once heard this one from an Italian and didn’t understand it until I experienced it … a big heavy pasta meal in the evening, then strong espresso coffee in the morning, then have the most massive #2 happen all at once as quickly as possible. This only happens if you keep up a healthy diet, plenty of exercise and everything is working just right. It’s disgusting to talk about and describe but absolutely refreshing and even invigorating to pass that much material from your body.
I wonder how many people were actually “activated” that way ha
Being of use to someone else - something as simple as opening a door or something as hard as helping someone change a tire on the road. That karma is like a hit of the stuff I don’t do anymore.
Feeling loved and appriciated.
Being genuinely surprised by a joke that hits just right, and laughing so hard I tear up.
The goosebumps you get from that part of a song
It’s called frisson . There was an /r devoted to it, I haven’t found any Lemmy equivalent.
Excuse me for my English. Approximately one and one half meters. Smaller highs are very ordinary but higher highs scare me
Installing a Linux Distribution
Generosity. The warm fuzzy tingly cozy sensation I get when I help a friend out, or even the occasional stranger, with getting a ride, or a meal, or taking the edge off an emergency expense, it never gets old.
Unfortunately not in a position to do that right now. I’m accumulating an emergency fund for making some bigger moves later…
Being locked-in nerding out doing technical stuff
Also, hot bath in cold weather
Like, have you ever gone on a sugar fast for a couple days then drank some fruit juice? That shit hits HARD.
This might sound weird, but sleep deprivation. I know it’s unhealthy, I only did it when young, but it was a rush to not sleep reading or gaming all night, then go to work/school. My record was 72 hours awake (Friday to Sunday) and while my head was wonky, and sometimes I would get very mild shakes, it was a high feeling still in control.
I’ve only felt a similar rush while fasting for several days, but for me it was much harder not eating compared to not sleeping.
When someone I’ve gifted food to sends me a message later in the day telling me the food, bread, whatever was sensational. It tells me that I’ve nailed their food preferences and tastes. I’ve done a good job.
Food is my love language and it’s how I like to say thank you and show appreciation.
