I've been trying to increase catecholamines by taking 2.5 mg prozac every other day and 5 mg buspar bid.
Let me tell you it feels really weird, kinda like ritalin. I don't feel anything serotonergic except slight bowel distress. The headaches have gone away and I don't feel tired like I do at a higher dose. Normally I'd get tired in the afternoon but not at this ultra low dose. I feel kind of odd and everything seems weird, like when I've taken higher doses of ritalin. I also notice my heard beating faster and more forcefully in the morning. Could be some life events I dunno. If I don't feel any improvement at the 5 week mark I'm gonna double the dose, cuz it seems I need serotonin more than I thought.
So much for me and 5 HT2C antagonism.
