The research seems to indicate higher not lower Dopamine levels might induce "subspace"
Dopamine
Brain chemicals are called neurotransmitters. Of the more than a hundred neurotransmitters now known, three are important for our purposes: serotonin, adrenaline, and dopamine, popularly referred to as the brain's "feel good" neurotransmitters. Whereas earlier mood brighteners like cocaine and amphetamines boost all three of these
Dopamine - A third neurochemical event that accompanies orgasm is a dramatic rise in dopamine in the reward center, which drops sharply after orgasm. Low dopamine can produce uncomfortable psychological effects
Serotonin is one of the oldest neurotransmitters in the evolution of life forms. In humans only about 5% of serotonin is found in the brain. The other 95% is distributed throughout the rest of the body. The majority is in the gastrointestinal tract
