I don't understand why I haven't gotten serotonin syndrome... The only conclusion I can come to is I'mULTRA LOW ON SEROTONIN (I have signs of it, OCD, anxiety, really clingy to things, etc). As I TAKE, and just took
:1.) 650mg of Tramadol today. 300mg ER, and 350mg of IR. I take this daily... Fromwhat I know Tramadol releases AND reputakes serotonin. And this is a very high dosage..
2.) 30mg Mirtazapine. (at night)
3.) 50mg of Trazadone (at night)
4.) 400mg of L-Trytophan (at night)
5.) 150mg 5-HTP (at night).
6.) Adderall, XR and IR during day
7.) DXM, sometimes.
8.) Hydro/Oxy
I feel like I'm missing something... but either way that's EIGHT meds that affect/increase serotonin. Yet I still feel like I have low serotonin. I remember when I took PROZAC ONLY I felt more confident, less OCD, etc. This combo I don't feel like my serotonin is even "increasing". More like decreasing... Now I just added 10mg of Prozac daily in hopes to get my serotonin levels up. So soon it will be 9 (NINE) serotonin meds, and Prozac being an SSRI that's major..
Trust me, I know what dopamine feels like. I know what serotonin feels like. I'm SUPER LOW on serotonin and I don't want to kill my self. I am low on dopamine also, but I take supplements daily to keep it okay enough.
I thought about taking PROZAC 10mg AND 37.5mg of Effexor in addition to the other 8 meds.... Maybe too much? Or is Tramadol the culprit? I hear it can actually lower serotonin levels. At first I felt it's serotonin effects and was happy. Months later and Now I'm super depressed. But today when I took 400mg of ER? 6 hours later I felt the serotonin feeling, and felt okay again. But that's too high a dose, and I want off Tramadol. Plus if Tramadol releases serotonin I imagine it will deplete it (which is why I take L-Tryptophan and 5HTP) so maybe Tramadol is actually lowering my serotonin levels?
