sometimes i see posts where i think That Doesn't Sound Right But I Don't Know Enough About Neurobiology to Dispute It
#my understanding of dopamine and serotonin deficiencies is that they tend to be issues of uptake rather than production#like generally if you eat enough casein rich foods you should be good. your brain will manufacture a pretty sizeable amount#but from what i've gathered#the problem is that it will generally USE and transform those chemicals at a rate that fucks you over#so ssris and stimulants for adhd tell your brain HEY JACKASS WE NEED THESE#or more specifically they bind to the places that would usually be grabbing your dopamine and serotonin and doing shit with em#again. big grain of salt here. i'm not a pharmacist or a neurologist or psych#just a nosy and neurotic creature that reads papers on everything i have ever been prescribed. due to my brain problems.
