> Sorry to say, I just ran a quick search on OCD and dopamine, and it appears the consensus is that raising dopamine alone would be detrimental to OCD patients. However, it was also mentioned that it is postulated that those with OCD have low dopamine in relation to serotonin and norepinephrine. So it's possible that a moderate-dose SSRI in combination with Mirapex (which eliminates the sexual side effects of SSRIs) could be beneficial... or perhaps even adding Mirapex on to your precious Nardil? :-)
Hey Ame Sans Vie!,Thanks so much for your research! Fully Appreciated! I'm definately going to check out about Mirapex tonight. With the dopamine thing- I actually believe people with OCD have different imbalances ie OCD has a different chemical cause in each sufferer. So Mirapex could be spot on. Either that or Zyprexa.
Dropping Nardil is not an option....even with my less than functional you know what! Maybe Mirapex or Zyprexa would reverse this effect?Anyhow, thanks again- I remeber seeing your post and you saying 'I wish everyone could try this Mirapex' You said you had a smile on your face- that post was so great and it's wonderful to hear it's helped you- really helps us all to hear about wonderful responses and happy people!
All the best to you, keep me posted on how you're doing Mirapex lover!
