Hi Nolvas

I just think it's weird that an agonist of the NDMA receptor could induce/worsen depression and at the same time be effective on negative symptoms of schizophrenia, which in many ways are similar to depressive symptoms.

> Have a look at cycloserine (seromycin) side effects include depression. Cycloserine is a partial agonist of the NDMA receptor for glutamate Glycine could be described as poor man's cycloserine maybe? Large amounts of Glycine have to be ingested to have an effect on schizophrenia. I am interested in cycloserine with regard to fear extinction. However I imagine it's impossible to obtain in the UK where I live.
