Okay put up your dukes friend :)< >(: !
I'm pretty sure on this one.
My doc has to give me larger doses of estrogen valerate than people who have more fat on their bodies. Medication is stored in fat for use. Without much fat, medication depletes quickly and injections are needed 'more frequently' to replenish. Hence, need more medication in the long wrong; ... but does that mean a higher dosage in the grand scheme(?)...yes, believe so.
But, when comes to toying w/ neurotransmitters, I am sensitive to very low doses.
My questions are does anyone have the same physiology/reaction; and/or can anyone tell me if psych meds take a different route than medical/physical meds??
For example; it blows my mind that 10mg of a TCA can trigger side effects in me and others take 10x that much and experience no side effects.
I'm really not just looking for something to take my mind off 'life issues' this 'Sat' eve.
I am really interested in what triggers 'high sensitivity' to psych medications in some people and not in others.
Really, and 'that's the truth'.
And, I'm really tired, nearing total zombie stage, so hope this makes sense.
