Re: An Excellent Explaination of How SSRI's Inhibit Sert
I partially fast every day because lack of hunger sensation and it subtly relieves my symptoms. It's rare that my stomach growls. Ghrelin must be suppressed which explains lack of appetite and stomach growling, as ghrelin is released on an empty stomach to induce hunger. This wasn't an issue before crashing.MisterCharlie wrote: ↑Sat Dec 25, 2021 4:55 am 1.

2. Inhibition of GSK3 by lithium, from single molecules to signaling networks

Lithium would be an interesting substance to explore, as there is one user on here that reports being cured by it. The issue is lithium also increases serotonin, so if you have a severe case of pssd, you risk getting serotonin syndrome. You could mitigate those risks by micro dosing over a long period of time and see if symptoms subtly improve.

Most importantly you want to inhibit mir-16 in the dorsal raphe. Coincidentally, the dorsal raphe is part of the brain where 5ht1a pre-synaptic receptors are most abundant. Serotonin seems to be flooded in the raphe from sert loss which desensitizes heteroreceptors and causses these downstream effects in the locus coeruleus.MisterCharlie wrote: ↑Sat Dec 25, 2021 5:06 amDont you mean an upregulation of mir-16? in the locus ceruleus

@Tree
I do have fatigue and some trouble with my memory, but besides that no cognitive problems I’d say. Not sure if that’s considered cognitive, but I have seen a huge loss in my ability to visualize things / scenarios in my mind. Like I could see pictures in my mind with full details and all, but nowadays it’s more a blurry mass when I try to imagine something.

So you don't have any emotional bluntness or lack of pleasure from hobbies? I have the same problem with not being able to visualize. It's like a blank mind feeling. Do you have trouble with your memory? I have trouble recalling information because of foggy brain and less desire/energy to recall information. I'm like a zombie.ytho wrote: ↑Sun Dec 26, 2021 3:00 pm @Tree

I do not have emotional bluntness or lack of pleasure from doing things. I feel a bit down because I suffer from PSSD, but PSSD itself is not giving me this lack of enjoyment, if that makes sense. I have some slight memory issues since stopping the SSRI, but not too bad. The foggy brain hits me every other day for a few hours, but in no way 24/7. During those hours I feel very fatigued and my mind goes to crap. The rest of the time, when I’m not foggy / fatigued, my mind / cognition works fine.

Re: An Excellent Explaination of How SSRI's Inhibit Sert
What are your sexual symptoms and do you consider them severe? It seems to me that genetics play some role in the type and degree of symptoms. Also what was the reason for taking meds? I took ssri for mild depression. I was feeling sad everyday because of past health trauma and being stressed out from college. There are some people on this forum who took ssri's and they weren't even depressed. This could be why some suffer cognitive symptoms and others don't. At the end of the day, though, if you're experiencing persistent withdrawal symptoms, it's most likely caused by sert down-regulation.ytho wrote: ↑Tue Jan 04, 2022 5:07 am I do not have emotional bluntness or lack of pleasure from doing things.

I'm not sure. There seems to be a few Wnt activators but I don't know if they activate wnt in the raphe. I'm going to microdose zinc then try simvastatin. Lithium is also something that may provide benefits because it's a potent gsk3b Inhibitor. Wnt is activated by gsk3b inhibition.MisterCharlie wrote: ↑Wed Jan 05, 2022 5:06 pmSo what drug does that? anything worth testing?Tree wrote: ↑Sat Dec 25, 2021 6:01 amMost importantly you want to inhibit mir-16 in the dorsal raphe.

At this point, I'm desperate for some relief, I've been suffering extreme symptoms for years. This is so fucked up.

Re: An Excellent Explaination of How SSRI's Inhibit Sert
Antabuse and dapsone for potential lyme disease has been great for me. Might not just be PSSD. For PSSD im trying tianeptine, bacopa, and forskolin which studies show can increase SERT expression.Tree wrote: ↑Sun Jan 09, 2022 10:14 pmI'm not sure.
