> Depending on a person's wiring in the dopamine system, and whether certain receptors are too sensitive or not sensitive enough, dopamine enhancers can have opposite effects. Some people are calmed by ritalin, while others get sped up, as one example.
You are right. This is what i read on another thread here, while i was searching. It could be that i have too many or too sensitive dopamine AUTO-receptors. Also, i have tried l-dopa in the past and all it did, was to make me vomit.
I wonder if there is any way to overcome this by Blocking the auto-receptors?? Any suggestions are welcome.> I think you would need a higher dose and a longer time period to solidly conclude how deprenyl affects you.
Yes, i'm not giving up yet. Btw, i tried 2.5mg sublingually today and felt sedated again.
No cognition enhancment. In fact, i'm sure it has a negative impact in this field. It makes me feel dull.
No increase in motivation either. It lowers my motivation, instead.
If i compare my experience with the rest of the experiences that i have read, i would say that i'm taking a sort-of anti-selegiline pill!
> There is always the possibility of an allergic reaction. Usually when we think of allergy we think of rashes, hives, stuff like that. An allergic reaction can be a lot of other stuff besides skin. Fatigue and sleepiness is one form of an allergic reaction.Correct me if i'm wrong, but i think that an allergic reaction usually causes agitation, due to histamine release. I'm sensitive to (anti)histamines.
