THud ,
Your right, the day after i have absolutely no sex drive and no anxiety. i believe axiety and sex have some close traits, moreso due to excess dopamine or norepinephrine, Remerons histamine properties i beleive is the suppressor for the sex problems. Although once i upped my dose to 45mg and felt stimulation, no sleeiness though some anxiety, so i lowered it. Seems that meds which increase nor, and dopmaine cause anxiety if your suffer from panic and anxiety. Today i drank a cup of black coffee, and smoked a cigarette, about 20min later i was in a state of panic. I pulled a no no here, i crushed up a .5mg xanax and snorted it! at least i calmed down!
genops. a good war story. Last summer, i decided to take 8mg of yohimbine. Well low and behold, FUCK, i went into a state of panic, along with a stiffy and felt like i could blow it in 2 seconds. It was like a good/bad thing together. Again i had to down 1mg xanax, to calm me down. I found out that benzos are the brake in your brain to slow down the dopamine/norepinephrine. esp norepinephrine. I have no sex drive when i take more than .5mg xanax.
Like i said, be horney and anxious , or calm and limp!
