Dopamine and Serotonin

Posted by Francesco on September 5, 2003, at 14:15:25

I have posted in the past that Anafranil seemed to help my ADHD features while making me social phobic. I've read somewhere that I'm not alone. I have a question-theory (sorry if it's too semplicistic). Anafranil raises serotonin (just like SSRIs). When serotonin is raised, dopamine tends to be lowered. When you have low dopamine you have social phobia ... does it make any sense ? (Incidentally ... Is that the reason why I drink socially when I'm on meds ? to increase dopamine ?). Sorry if the question is too stupid : )
