> They don't? I've had many pdocs tell me that stimulants cause receptor burn out and drain the supply of dopamine, etc. Are those facts untrue?

for years at very high doses.

> What does deplete dopamine?It is helpful to stop using the work "deplete"
in assoc with NT's. Parkinsons kills off dopamine
receptors/sites.
