Seems like every drug that works on dopamine suffers from the same thing. an initial boost followed by eventual poop-out.
What is it about dopamine in the brain that seems to be in a feedback loop, versus serotonin? You dont see nearly as many SSRIs pooping out so quickly.
If the brain re-adjusts to higher levels of a neurotransmitter, why does tinkering with serotonin work so well for so many?
If anyone has a link to info on this Id be interested to check it out.
