> i'm starting to have problems with tolerance, no it's not with meds completly, but i've noticed ... say a supplement or an antidepressant, it works for a long time then it plataues, where .. you have to take higher dose. Before i've never had tolerance problems, when i was younger or even a few years ago, then i started to notice just a blah platuea feeling after years of taking a med, and then when i took a supplement, it worked then it plataued too.....

Which drugs are you having problems with?
How far up the ladder towards remission do these drugs take you?
Your brain is no longer a virgin. It has been exposed to different chemical substances. The brain often changes in response to these exposures. The most obvious change is in the number of neurotransmitter receptors along nerve cell membranes. There are a great many other aspects of brain function that are also altered. These changes often persist long after the substance is discontinued. A drug that was used successfully once in the past often fails to work equally well upon its reintroduction.
