A thought crossed my mind today and I would like input of those "in the know".
I am sensitive, both emotionally and physically. I could never use a hot tub as it seems to scald me, cold water sends chills up my spine. My sense of smell is very keen. A few beers intoxicates me and a very very small puff of marijuana sends me into hysterical fits of laughter and creativity. My sense of touch is very receptive, an orgasm looks somewhat similar to a seizure :-)
My point is this. I have tried many different antideppressants usually at high doses when they did not respond. I have started parnate again. I will be on 30mgs, but for a week I am on 10. I feel fabulous on 10 (I think) but the reccomended dosage is 30. In the past when I have been on 30mgs I suffered from hypotension resulting in fainting.
Is it possible I am "chemically sensitive" too? That is to say, that "MY' ideal dosage is 10mg, and that I am sensitive with meds the same as everything else in my life. Is there a correlation?
