A period of doing an activity, generally a video game, where it has been done so much that the brain no longer releases dopamine from playing it, and instead, it is played out of habit. Almost every top player in a video game has reached the Post-Dopamine Stage. Just because someone is in the Post-Dopamine Stage doesn't mean they are a great player, they have stopped playing the game, or they derive no enjoyment from the game. It simply means they have played it enough that the initial rush of playing it has gone away.

(n.): The sudden loss of motivation and satisfaction that occurs when someone else asks you to complete a task you've been meaning to do, just as you're about to start it. This results in the loss of personal credit and a sense of accomplishment, as if the other person has taken away your opportunity to showcase your initiative and independence.
I’m so pissed at my wife. Just as I was about to unload the dishwasher on my own she asked if I can unload the dishwasher. Total stolen dopamine situation!
