    SSRIs used to treat Covid-19?

    I don't necessarily agree with this but I do feel it's important to bring in opposing viewpoints.

    Peating, Politics, and Passivity

    I've noticed since focusing on maximizing a high dopamine, low serotonin, low cortisol state that I've become much more passive regarding topics that I was much more fired up about a few years ago. I've spoken of having much more (far) right leaning views during the most stressful periods of my...

    Parkinsons Disease is not just a dopamine deficieny - mainstream admits

    This study goes along the lines of what haidut has been posting the last years . Namely that parkinsons disease (PD) is not just caused by a dopamin deficiency, but a serotonin excess .

    I Think High Serotonin Is Holding Me Back

    I believe that my serotonin levels are way too high, the best way I can describe my current health situation is that I feel as though my body is stuck in hibernation mode, and all the non-essential parts of my brain have shut down. It's actually incredibly difficult to even identify and describe...

    Anti-serotonin stack for more energy and well-being

    Most of us are looking for ways to lower serotonin, however, it can be quite difficult to get the right ingredients so to speak. Instead of looking for a patch that just antagonizes serotonin (although those can be lifesaving short term), rather use a stack that directly lowers serotonin...

    1-acetyl- LSD, a better LSD-alternative? (aka ALD-52)

    A few days ago I did a post on 2-bromo-LSD as a better LSD alternative . 2-bromo-lsd ,lacks the hallucinogenic effect of LSD ,which might be due to a stronger anti-serotonin effect . The problem is: it is very hard to get and pretty expensive, plus its illegal . Today I stumbled...

    Serotonin is elevated in COVID- 19-associated diarrhoea

    “In summary, we found 5-HT levels are markedly elevated in COVID-19 associated diarrhoea. Elevated 5-HT levels in diarrhoea are also correlated with increased IL-6. These data suggest increased 5-HT may contribute to diarrhoea and the severity of COVID-19.”...

    Serotonin promotes (futile) patience and (false) faith in future rewards

    This study alone explains so much of the pathological behavior seen in humans living in developed countries. Namely, the vast majority of them are willing to break their backs working and "delaying gratification" in the hopes that one day they will "make it" and all of their efforts will be...

    Serotonin (and SSRI drugs) can cause anxiety and PTSD

    Yet another great study exposing just how much of a "happy hormone" serotonin really is. As usual, the popular press article does everything possible to avoid pointing the finger at serotonin and even engages in misdirection. For example, it says that SERT is the main target of drugs like...
