After years on SSRI's, I have become severely hypersensitive to:
1. B vitamins, magnesium, choline (too activating)
2. Amino acids like 5-thp and inositol (more depressed and nauseous within 24 hours)
3. Any antidepressant that affects sertonin dompanine or norepinhperine (usually, I experience a boost the first few days (boost of adrenalin?) and after a few weeks every side effect in the book kicks in)
4. Benzos (more depressed within 24 hours)I do not appear hypersensitive to:
1. Most foods
2. Caffeine
3. Vitamin E (other vitamins?)
4. LamictalSome have surmised the cause is a hyperactive glutamatergic system from withdrawal. Does anyone have any other theories?
