In my case keeping seeing my important concepts (silly but let's call them that) in a hurry, or purposefully with the idea of making myself feel something, can actually have the opposite effects.

Had a summer where I brought a device with me on long, early transport to a place I didn't want to be, to have something to listen to, and after that ended it took forever till I don't feel nauseated seeing the device.

I expect things are not entirely the same though, because it wasn't a job or school where I could at least get something out of like money and dopamine kicks. Curious what is making this happen :(

oh, damn, i also see now how it can backfire. sort of like hearing your favorite song everyday when waking up may nourish hatred towards it
