I’m sorry, but all psychedelics activate the serotonin 2A receptor, LSD does block others, but it also activates some

I know this was a while ago, but out of curiosity do you happen to know why thyroid/thymus product this was? Really interested in this, thanks so much!I have experienced that time ago when I took thyroid with thymus extract...my mind seemed to play around with lights and colors I felt like nothing could put me down
Anyone have source of peat talking about dreaming? Would love to readPeat wrote a few times on the brain's innate need to dream
Recently I read that in order for REM sleep to occur, noradrenaline and serotonin levels drop to zero (unfortunately can’t locate the soruce in which I saw the claim of “zero” but hopefully this will suffice):When I eat plenty of sugar I dream deeply
Good answer. People usually confuse quickly falling asleep with the quality of sleep. Even if I rarely had issues falling asleep, quality was underlooked. The same happens with weed, all the stoners seem to idolize this drug for his calming effects but there is no deep sleep in it.Recently I read that in order for REM sleep to occur, noradrenaline and serotonin levels drop to zero (unfortunately can’t locate the soruce in which I saw the claim of “zero” but hopefully this will suffice):
“In particular, norepinephrine and serotonin play prominent roles in suppressing REM sleep, while acetylcholine (ACh) plays a key role in the initiation of REM sleep”
(Source)
Having adequate liver glycogen stores (anti stress) through the night is likley critical for this to occur.
(P.S.
I know ACh is a “bad boy” on this forum, but Ray himself said “acetylcholine is essential, part of our concious regulating…, it’s needed for memory, all kinds of biological processes require just the right amount of acetylcholine”
Rem sleep is one of these biological processes it seems.
Thus, I disagree with the advice of some forum members to take benedryl before bed, as it’s NMDA inhibition (anti cholinergic effects) will block REM sleep)
