@republicofheaven is this separate from classic model addiction? Because the pleasure chart of a skinner box has a similar updown. Although that brings in expectation/reward mismatch.
@aquarial I don't think it's exactly the same - for example, I think withdrawal is key to (my understanding of) classic model addiction. And while that would produce a similar pattern of ups and downs, I think it's complicated by the fact that the ups come about as part of an explicit attempt to get out of the downs. (1/2)
