Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 We don't know yet. It would be MDMA, but you can't take MDMA every day. You should not even take nutmeg every day. What I've been trying to explain is that a lot of the drugs that would make pssd better actually make it worse. For instance, cannibis stimulates 5ht1a receptors, but downregulates them over time. The closest thing at the moment is probably viagra. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 What are the specific risks of taking a teaspoon of nutmeg every day for ten years? And what is the scientific source of that information? You should not even take nutmeg every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 As I keep saying 5ht agaonists work in a similar way to ssris. Therefore in the long term, it may make pssd worse. It would be safer to take cannibis every day than to take nutmeg, and also a bit more reliable. I don't know what the effect of taking nutmeg every day for 10 years would be, because nobody has ever tried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 I dont know what GNC is. The important thing is that more people try to learn more about ssri's. I expect testosterone is important since the 5ht1a and 2a receptors are important for testosterone control. However, most people I have spoken to have a really poor understanding of the serotonin receptors and antidepressants in general. If you wanted a tip on what to try next, I would recommend wormwood.

You are indeed correct, it is important. Having dealt with pssd since 1994 I can vouch for the fact that testosterone is the ONLY thing that has offered any SUSTAINABLE relief.

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 What about people who don't have low testosterone? duh. You've dealt with it since 1994, but you've failled to notice tat many people with pssd don't have low T levels. We've been finding drugs recently that may improve pssd for people who don't have low T levels. This is a big step because most things like muccuna puriens, dostinex, and burpropion had little effect. If we can build upon these findings we can probaby come up with better long term results in the future. WHAT YOU SEEM TO BE SAYING IS THAT PSSD IS SYNONOMOUS WITH LOW T LEVELS, AND THAT THERE ARE NO OTHER NEUROLOGICAL CAUSES, WHICH IS PATENTLY UNTRUE. NEXT TIME YOU COME MAKING A WISE CRACK, TRY BACKING IT UP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 Now the thing that has arounsed curiousity in me is if the testosterone level in us was low to begin with, that is prior to an SSRI or if the poison brought on the lower T levels. Since no " doctor " has bothered to test a male for T prior to subjection to SSRIs there is no way to tell. I'm wondering if one of these pharma companies that hawks these poisons has bothered to test hormone levels in laboratory animals before and after subjection to these miracle drugs/antidepressants? I myslef took a tremendous step back last month. I was on Prozac for many years(in excess of 15) and had lost sexual function almost completely, Viagara being my only salvation for 2 years since I had stopped SSRIs. I hadn't had a morning erection for years Through hard work including daily workouts and various herbals including tribulous, and a couple of others plus zinc my function had started to return to a degree. I had regained some degree of sexual functionality independant of Viagara. I went in to a doctor because of another unrelated issue(blood pressure) and I told them that I had been on anti-depressants at one time, but had an aversion to SSRIs for the reasons we all know(and I explained it to her). This doctor knew my family situation and I have been under a great deal of stress. She suggested trying something else, and so I was put on Cymbalta and immediately lost all the gains of the last 2 years.I completely lost all desire and my equipment had drawn up within itself. Stayed on it a week and a half. She said " oh, its not an SSRI " , and now I know its an SSRI plus something else.

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 True. I'm a prime example of someone who's tried testosterone with little or no effect. I've tried HCG, Clomid, and Androgel. Something else is wrong here. Cialis actually works better than T for me...

I am sure there are people here without low T. I am also sure from the posts I've read on here that a greater number of people have been told their T is normal because it falls into the bottom of an outdated, inaccurate range. Mine was actually normal. Others on here have tried T replacement and failed because they gave up much too easy. It does take some time to sort out. > We've been finding drugs recently that may improve pssd for people > who don't have low T levels.

I'll thank you not to speak for me, for sure this is a COMPLEX problem. While it probably won't work for everyone I have to believe a lot of folks could benefit if T replacement was administered properly.

I can maintain an erection and experience great orgasms, before you start shouting again make sure YOU can do that, else you really don't have anything to back up.

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 Because many doctors are not informed about PSSD, it is IMO important that patients themselves study these subjects. All the best.
