So,
as i see there is a third Schizophrenia hypothesis after Dopamine and Glutamate: Anandamide.
What is your knowledge on this?
I have heard that two substances from cacao are anandamide enhancing and i have heard that drug companies are doing research to find anandamide enhancing agents...
Maybe those substances from cacao can be bought from chemical suppliers?

From my readings, anandamide appears to have an antipsychotic effect. Schizophrenics with higher anandamide experience fewer symptoms.
Cocoa helps control my anxiety. It also seems to calm my mind during mixed states. I don't have schizophrenia, but I have had periods of a blurred touch with reality. Coca seems to have restored my will to live. I can feel close to completely anhedonic (close to suicidal) and experience prompt relief with cocoa. It helps with pain and social anxiety.
Some other things to consider - folic acid is essential for the proper functioning of cannabinoid responses,

Im trying to find out what the Anandamidic Substances in Cocoa are and i want to order them from a Chem supplier.
I had a website that stated those substances, but i can't find it :(
Cocoa contains undesirable chemicals for Schizophrenia, thats why i want to isolate the anandamidic ones.
