Can the brain shutdown the response it once had to stimuli, after it is done too much? For example swimming in the ocean might be a thrill to some people, but to many who live at the beach it is very rare they swim.
Is it a conscious decision to stop liking the experience, or something unconscious? When a person's brain no longer finds enjoyment out of any experience, is that a type of brain damage, or mental defect in the person? |

It's just a form of habituation. It's not a defect or damage.

How about recapturing once loved experiences so that they felt as though they once did?
Realistic? |

I doubt it's possible to ever fully recapture the intensity of emotions regarding an experience once it is no longer novel. Another thing to keep in mind is that people often remember things as more intense/emotional than they actually experienced at the time.
