Thanks Fire!
Yes, Serotonin.
It never really crossed my mind (no pun intended) before because I thought that serotonin was responsible for your level of happiness and nothing else, but when I started reading all the things serotonin can help I just had to try it.
Firstly I never knew it was in the bowels and blood, I thought it was only in the brain.
Then finding out that on top of having a positive affect on mood it can also help sleep, anxiety, behaviour, appetite, digestion, memory, learning, labido, wound healing, bone health etc etc. I was surprised.
I am trailing it for the anxiety and sleep aid functions. Maybe my levels were low enough to cause my anxiety and sleep issues?...I have always been a worrier.
Ah, yes. That would run the risk of serotonin syndrome..
How is Cymbalta working out for you?
