I've heard conflicting info on this. I'm a TV/video game junkie but have a nagging suspicion that both are not helping me with my thyroid recovery due to cortisol release especially when I like violence heavy TV shows generally.
I feel like I am a stimulus junkie in general (aka, running off stress hormones). I get bored easily, and this drives me interest for stimulus.
Anyone else like me? How did you start to find interest in "boring" activities like reading, socializing, etc? I feel like this is the road I need to start going down to start properly healing (while also watching the diet etc).
Now that it's warmer outside I'd like to get into some outdoor activities as well to get some sun, rather than hole up indoors and watch TV all day lol.
Similarly, I feel like the music I tend to like also amps up my stress hormones (heavy metal, "high adrenaline" music) as well. Probably why many power lifters like "intense" music to get them amped before a big lift... and other stress hormone releasing things like snorting ammonia lol...
