I believe that quercetin and resveratrol are MAO-A selective. Turmeric is also MAO-A selective (but also inhibits MAO-B). Turmeric however, apparently has low oral bioavailability.
As far as my job, unfortunately, yes it has a big influence on my mental health. I wish this were not the case and I haven't really found a way to change it.
My brain seems to 'reject' antidepressants as I see them as creating a false sense of happiness. I feel like they are trying to 'tell me to be happy', flooding my brain with 'happy chemicals' however I increasingly crave 'real' recovery. Growth. Depth. I feel that they cause gross alterations (shutting down) important circuitry. I seem to have given up on trying to improve my life because I don't know how to improve my life. I want to be cured and be able to contribute to society in a meaningful way. Unfortunately, I feel that my contributions are meaningless, use very few of my abilities and I constantly doubt I have the capacity to change that dynamic, because I feel that the future is bleak. I think a lot about how technology is taking away so many opportunities for people. I don't want chemical hope, I want real hope.
The drugs just seem to keep suppressing the desire for me to express myself in some way that I haven't figured out.
Chemical hope was ok for 20 years. As I get older, I want something deeper. Something real.
