I noticed that I lack dopamine and/or serotonin and seems like I would try to chase it from time to time. 

I would do things that give me a dopamine rush such as frequent sex, excessive shopping, binging on refined sugars, ( I experience dopamine rush when I’m waiting for someone (fp, romantic interest or someone I thought they would’t reach out again) to respond and they finally do), even posting a picture of myself where I think I look good gives me a dopamine rush ( I rarely take pictures because I have body image issues and once I actually get something that I like I immediately want to share it with others because it gives me that feeling of dopamine, if that makes any sense) ect. 

I am not sure if it’s linked to BPD so I’m wondering if anyone else is experiencing this.  If so, how do you cope with this? Do you have any other healthier ways that trigger that dopamine rush? (Gym doesn’t help that much, I exercise regularly). I feel down most of the time and I just need something good to feel, if it makes any sense ☹️
