Hope i posted in correct category. I saw a couple of fitting ones.
Im 33 year old female. Started off heavy marijuana smoker for a few years. Afterward For.a good ten years ive been an IV opiate user. Ive been mostly clean for a month and no longer physically dependent. Ive done my fair share of stimulants, downers and mdma. The heaviest mdma use was between 2006 and 2008 and last use was 8+ years ago. Ive got some neuro endocrine, autoimmune and probably adrenal issues going on. Probably for starters from living in intense stress, fear and negativity for my whole life. In turn led to substance.abuse and made those issues worse. I cleared hep c a good 3 months ago.
Im considering using lions mane and rhodiola or tryptophan. If i supplement with dopamine precursers and my receptors are damaged, which im assuming they are, then its pointless. This is why i thought tryptophan would be better. However, from my understanding, if you supplement with one and not the other you can further the.imbalance. has anyone heard that supposed general rule of thumb is to supplement both in 1:10 ration. (100mg tryptophan 1000mg tyrosine)
Also from my understanding, and similar concept as to why you should not supplement with only 1 of those.2, if your dopamine is low and serotonin high, it will start pulling serotonin level down. This does not make.sense to me as none of that serotonin is converted into dopamine so why/how is the serotonin being drawn from.
What are your opinions on this? Everyones neuro chemistry is different and there isnt much known on these.things and its very.frustrating to me. Ive thought about upregulating D receptor but that for some reason makes me a little nervous.
Im working on my gut health and clean eating. I try to keep moving but been to depressed to do any intense exercise. I know its the best way to get endorphins flowing and to heal on all fronts really.
