Ayuma,
Yes interesting!
It just goes to show how very individual everyone's neurochemistry is.
In order to find out what's gone wrong with the circuitry, I suppose you have to discover which neurotransmitter is out of whack for you...
For me, it's definately not serotonine, because everytime I up that, I go beserk (sp?) with fear.
After MUCH MUCHOS MULTIDOS trial & error, I've come to the conclusion I probably need a Norepinephrine (NE) downplayer. Problem is, they don't have one drug that solely plays on this receptor. That's why I'm awaiting Gepirone with great anticipation (only a bit worried the influence of dual effect on the serotonine receptor)...But wouldn't you also want to clean the slate as much as possible? All these combinations, upping this, lowering that, confuse me. In the end, it's difficult to tell which pill is responsible for which result...
May be I'm hoping for ONE magic bullet which will never come. H'mmmm, in Star Trek this whole mindbogling thing was solved with just 1 single jab in the neck, if I remember correctly, for captain Janeway & her crew... If they can do it, so should we!
> Wow. That's interesting. In my case Stablon didn't seem to help with depression in the long run (unless I keep up the dosages every now and then impossible because I have very limited supply.) So I've finally decided I really can't count on Stablon ALONE to fight my depressed feelings or anxious, etc. I have to have back up plans. And my back-ups are Neurontin (Gabapentin) in occasional limited dosage as well as maybe some other herbs and natural ingredients, and then, meditation (skills). But, I've once tried to combine Provigil (Modafinil), Stablon (Tianeptine) as well as Neurontin (Gabapentin) 1200 mg, plus a can of extremely potent, barely legal energy drink off the market - ALL AT ONCE with very euphoric effects. I'd end up having a nutty ride although I could control myself if I really wanted to such as working/driving/socializing, etc. It was a bit too much adrenaline for me to handle and I wouldn't recommend anyone else who are not experienced with potent stims. - it really weren't that pleasant after all - in some ways - because Neurontin is a mild-tranqulizer that also gives extra Adrenaline boost to the user. (so is Stablon.) Too much adrenaline can be a very torturing feeling deep within.
