1 anxiety leads to the next, & always some depression
Ok my experience, pretty normal guy, even married now. I started the noticing the physical affects of Anxiety since 14.Sweating, blushing, stuttering - whatever your body does in the fight or flight situation. (sometimes even aggression as a response). GP will treat this as a physical condition first

I'm New And Sceptical
Hi Everyone, I joined earlier today. I tried to write an introductory post then on my Kindle Fire, but hit a wrong button and lost the lot, so I'll try again. I'm 55 years old and have been ill and unable to work since December 2005. I've had some terrible experiences with neurologist, the worst was

Dopamine agonists turned me into a compulsive monster. Have you had similar experiences?
Hi folks, I found this forum by searching this specific topic. I'm fortunate to not have PD, but have been treated for severe RLS for over a decade. Up until a year ago, I was on Requip, which started at a lose dose and then gradually increased until I was sent to a neurologist because it was thought

Severe leg pain
Has anyone suffered from severe pain in the calf of their leg.

I have tried adjusting my dopamine. I have

Doctors are not prescribing Mirapex responsibly . Sleep First, decision in 3 days.
I think that by the time you face taking mirapex or any other dopamine drug, your back is truly against the wall.. you will take any pills or pill or anything good or bad for you.. when I made the decision to take mirapex, I was so sleep deprived that I was holding the very thing to end my life..

Regarding Fibromyalgia & Thyroid Issues
To all Members,
RE: Fibromyalgia & Thyroid Issues
A passage by FibroAction's Lindsey Middlemiss (2012) [i]Thyroid issues should be ruled out (or isolated) before a diagnosis of Fibro is made. Does this always happen? No, so some people are mis-diagnosed. Does that mean that Fibro is hypothyroidism

Leg pain
Sometimes I have terrible leg pain in my left leg. It is so bad I cannot bear weight on it. I don't know if it is low dopamine or too much. I have tried adjusting my Sinemet and eating a banana every day, but at times I still have the pain. I do the Big and Loud therapy every day and am active. Does

Increase Dopamine Levels with these Foods
Natural Society Says: Dopamine is the brain’s feel good chemical, sending feelings of well-being and pleasure into your body. In addition to simply making you feel good, dopamine helps control weight, energy levels, and supports brain and heart health. Without it, we would be more fat, unhappy, and

New Pathways Part 2
Different behaviours & circumstances release "feel good" chemicals in our brain...seratonin, dopamine, oxytocin & endorphins. To some degree, depending on how & why you smoke all of these feel good chemicals can be triggered by smoking. Subsequently a pathway is developed in your brain to stimulate

Further to Growth Hormone...
Just found this : •Tribulus terrestris: known for a long time, this plant stimulates both growth hormone and testosterone, with more dopamine. •Griffonia simplicifolia: its roots are rich in the precursor of serotonin, which efficiently stimulates growth hormone, and brings calm and better sleep. •Coleus

Success with CDP Choline?
Has anyone tried CDP Choline as an additional way to boost dopamine? There's an interesting study in which PWPs were able to lower their levodopa dose when taking CDP Choline. I'm thinking of adding this supplement but would like to hear personal experiences first. Please let me know if you've tried
