👉 Victory fumes refer to the euphoric, exhilarated state that people often experience after achieving a significant success or accomplishment. This feeling is characterized by heightened energy, confidence, and a sense of euphoria, often accompanied by a rush of endorphins and dopamine in the brain. These chemicals create a positive feedback loop, making individuals feel invigorated and motivated, sometimes to the point of overconfidence. However, this intense high can also lead to impulsive decisions or a temporary disregard for caution, as the euphoric state can temporarily mask any lingering doubts or concerns. Despite its intensity, victory fumes are usually short-lived, gradually subsiding as the initial rush wears off.
