Hello! Hope you're doing well. Was hoping I could ask here since this is your most recent video. Though, could you, possibly, cover age regression and the different aspects and facets of it? 😊 thank you for all you do.

@@DocSnipes Very good in depth informational video! If i understood it right, doing exszessively too much of a good thing would be having too much dopa (overspending, escapades, risky behaviour...) but what if it comes to food, what about eating too much? Does this likely show too less or too much dopa? You also mentioned walking the dog would bring dopa. Intresting. In my case walking (the dog) it dosen´t give me too much joy, espcially if i´m already drained, 0 Joy. I always need music while walking the dog, then i feel lucky (still a sign of dopamin insufficency or don´t you think so?) If somthing bad has happened not even music gives me pleasure and i walk like a snail or just stop and stand there or can´t even walk anywhere (too draining) Would this show too less dopa or something different?

Is there a law of diminishing returns when it comes to dopamine and motivation and why some people give up on there goals and pursuits because they get bored, and frustrated, very easily. it's like the goal itself loses it's lustre and becomes a repetitive process with a lack of excitement.

@nicbarth3838 2 ай бұрын

That is a fantastic question all I know the only thing I know is that habits use circuitry that are different from the mezolimbic circuitry aka reward circuit and is why you can do activities despite the absence of reward although if you do not experience enought reward to begin with then it will be less likely to become a habit in the first place which is something you experience with ADHD which I have, an interesting thing is that rewards from the limbic pathway are not produced independent of the prefrontal cortext, because ideas can evoke reward in themselves, such as anticipating a reward in the form of an outcome. That is why your ability to consider the future of your actions and their corresponding consequences is critical to producing reward during the process of the activity while you are under going said action. However this requires you to also persist with an action long enough to even experience its rewards and if you do not then you will have no memory to pull from to produce those anticipations.

As with all neurotransmitter, too much is just as bad as too little. Eventually too much dopamine causes the brain to prune back the number of dopamine receptors to protect from overload.

Lavender helps me really relax along with magnesium and progesterone cream for sleeping, maybe Benadryl or Tylenol pm. My sleep hygiene is important, lately I’m sleeping more and needing a nap during the day especially after a workout.

As a Critical Care nurse, dopamine intravenous infusions at low dose helped to perfuse the kidneys. At higher doses, we used it to increase blood pressure in cases of septic & cardiogenic shock. If we remember what dopamine is doing in the HPA axis, it makes perfect sense.

By having a skilled psychiatrist or psychiatric CRNP who can adjust meds, suggest proper diet, and stay off of melatonin.

A boost in dopamine through highly stimulating activities such as social media use and gaming can reduce serotonin levels, leading to a temporary feeling of happiness but increasing the long-term risk of depression and anxiety.

Hi, At 28:34 You say that when someone has ADHD, you try to lower their dopamine. Which runs contrary to what I see everywhere else.. Can you clarify a bit more please?

@DocSnipes Ай бұрын

This article gives a pretty clear explanation regarding how, in some people with ADHD there is too much dopaminergic Transmission but in others, not enough. www.healthline.com/health/adhd/adhd-dopamine#connection

@CerraehLaykin 2 ай бұрын

Hold on- are you saying that ADHD is caused by too MUCH dopamine? I’ve always been told that ADHD is caused by a dopamine deficiency. Now I’m super confused! Research suggests that attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is caused by a dopamine deficiency, or a dysfunctional dopamine system in the brain. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that plays a role in many body functions, including motivation, reward, and attention. People with ADHD may have lower levels of dopamine in the parts of the brain that control these functions. This could be due to a combination of factors, including genetics, environment, brain function, or having too many dopamine transporters.

Good question

@traycecarr9237 2 ай бұрын

would dopamine, in Alzheimer be affected? I used aromatherapy in massages on Alzheimer clients, they remembered I made them feel good:)

@DocSnipes Ай бұрын

Dopamine levels can indeed be affected in individuals with Alzheimer's disease. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that plays a crucial role in regulating mood, motivation, and cognitive functions. In Alzheimer's disease, the brain undergoes various neurodegenerative changes that can impact the production and regulation of neurotransmitters, including dopamine. Impact of Aromatherapy on Alzheimer's Patients Aromatherapy, which involves the use of essential oils, has been shown to have positive effects on mood and cognitive function. Essential oils such as clary sage, bergamot, lavender, lemon, and rosemary have been found to increase levels of dopamine. The inhalation of these essential oils can stimulate the brain to release neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which help regulate mood and can create a sense of well-being. Your experience with using aromatherapy in massages for Alzheimer’s clients, where they remembered feeling good, aligns with these findings. The activation of olfactory receptors by essential oils sends signals to the limbic system, which is involved in memory and emotion. This can help improve mood and potentially enhance cognitive function, even if temporarily. Conclusion In summary, dopamine levels can be affected in Alzheimer's disease, and aromatherapy can positively impact mood and cognitive function by increasing dopamine levels. Your use of aromatherapy in massages likely contributed to the positive emotional responses from your clients.

I struggle with severe PMS and each Dr I have spoken to regarding this always recommends SSRI’s. What are your recommendations with PMS and perimenopause? @DR Snipes

@DocSnipes Ай бұрын

Managing severe PMS and perimenopause can be challenging, especially if SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors) are not preferred. Here are some recommendations based on current knowledge and research: Hormonal Treatments * Transdermal Estrogen Patches: Some studies suggest that using a transdermal estrogen patch can improve mood and reduce depression during perimenopause. This method helps stabilize estrogen levels more effectively than oral estrogen. * Progesterone Therapy: Balancing estrogen with progesterone can also be beneficial. Progesterone can help mitigate some of the mood-related symptoms associated with fluctuating estrogen levels. Lifestyle and Natural Remedies * Diet and Nutrition: A balanced diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids, magnesium, and vitamin B6 can help manage PMS symptoms. Foods like fish, nuts, seeds, and leafy greens are good sources of these nutrients. * Exercise: Regular physical activity can help reduce symptoms of PMS and perimenopause by improving mood and reducing stress. * Aromatherapy: Essential oils such as lavender, clary sage, and chamomile can help alleviate symptoms of PMS and perimenopause by promoting relaxation and reducing anxiety. Alternative Therapies * Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT can be effective in managing mood swings and anxiety associated with PMS and perimenopause. * Acupuncture: Some studies suggest that acupuncture can help reduce the severity of PMS symptoms and improve overall well-being. Medical Evaluation * Hormone Level Testing: Before starting any treatment, it is essential to get a blood test to check hormone levels. This can help identify any imbalances that may be contributing to your symptoms. Conclusion Managing severe PMS and perimenopause involves a combination of lifestyle changes, natural remedies, and medical treatments. It is essential to work with a healthcare provider to develop a personalized plan that addresses your specific needs and preferences.

@@DocSnipesyou are the best! 🎉 I’m suffering ADHD, PMDD, perimenopause, fibroids… the estrogen causes my fibroids to grow and hemorrhage so I had to back off. I’m turning 54 this month and I’m thinking (praying) I had my last period in April and it was because my GYN gave me estrogen pills… took 2 and hemorrhaged a week. So I have estrogen cream and I rub it on once a week and rub progesterone on most nights. If I rub on too much estrogen I will have discharge now… I’m thinking all the eggs are gone. I do take iron, many vitamins, potassium, magnesium, GABA, Ginko, omega 3’s (Jym for men from Amazon) for high DHA EPA? I have adderrall 10mg, I can only take 1/2 tab. I am having a hard time balancing it all. I keep finding myself unemployed w/o insurance. I’m socially isolated because of mood, I don’t understand social interactions and find myself just try to fit in. Anxiety that I may say or do something uncool. I have Cc? PTSD… child of a covert narc mother. Plus I was a hospice nurse during Covid and i find I don’t want to do bedside nursing anymore. I can’t deal with the stress of the increased corruption/deception in the medical system. You are hitting all my issues in one video. I am depleted and feel I am not able to protect my own survival and my brain feels like a scrabbled egg. Any recommendations.? The adderrall helps get me going most days… I ran out of trazodone so I’m having to try to take less adderrall. My diet is low carb, I’m in keto only 0.2mmol, I’m losing weight now that I left a stressful job But my home is being foreclosed, it’s in bankruptcy and I have to come up with 5k by 7/26 or bankruptcy will be dismissed I’m trying to find a job with a bonus but I know it has to be a right fit. Do to the ADHD…. Maybe I’m depressed, the last I checked my labs March, my labs were normal CBC, BMP. GYN didn’t get labs just prescribed estrogen and progesterone pills. I haven’t taken after the hemorrhage in April.
