Hi all,
I'm new : ) I've been doing a ton of research on the neurophysiology of PTSD and am looking for others that may be able to share resources and discuss the topic. In particular, I'm interested in-
-natural/alternative/herbal therapies. In particular: TMG, SAMe, Licorice Root, Rhodiola Rosea, Ashwagandha, and some of the new herbal cortisol reduction pills
-the neurophysiology of PTSD
-the connection between PTSD and social anxiety and the neurophysiology of social anxiety
-herbal/medication known or theoretical interactions (esp. related to klonopin, Neurontin, Wellbutrin, and Lexapro)
Any thoughts, experiences, resources (studies, websites), etc. are greatly appreciated. I'm wondering if there is a way that I can get to the PTSD at one of its sources-the HPA axis-through the use of herbals. I'm also real interested in the new cortisol reducing supplements (i.e., Relora or Pharmanex's "cortitrol").
thanks. Best to all-
Austin, TX
