Re: Tyrosine, Rhodiola or other Dopamine Antagonist??? (stuck)

[Guest guest]

an amino acid needs vit b1 b2 & b6 to work properly, if you have been

taking it for some time its possible that you may have a deficiency

of these things which has stopped the amino acid being processed

properly.

Ginkgo always makes me feel so dumb, that's why i don't take it even

if it helps for a stronger erection. Ginseng helps for erections for

stability but you just can't compare it to the real power of cialis

or viagra. taken on empty stomach rhodiola gives hell of a libido

after about 6 hours, 300mg would be enough for this. but try it

aforehand, it is strong.

my advise would be to keep taking cialis(5mg) for a few days till

your date, and to stay away from sedatives like lemon balm, st johns

wort and strong antioxidants, like promgranate.

and just to avoid any risks, take the full dose of cialis or viagra

or levitra as the final step. the dopamine agonists by themselves do

not suffice for intercourse, alas.

Yeah, get some Cialis and bang that chick. She won't know you have

PSSD either.

hey all! once again, thanks for all the help! i hope i will be able to return

the favor down

the line...as i am still very new to this group. if anyone has any questions

about treating

depression with orthomollecular medicine (from a patient standpoint) or musical

equipment, i would be more than happy to help in any way that i can!!!

QUESTION (part I)

i've been on tyrosine for about three weeks now (1,000mg/ daily) and am flat out

amazed

at how well it has helped my libido, orgasmic ability and sensitivity, not to

mention my

depression. being ssri free for the first time in ten years as of about a month

ago, i would

like to stay on tyrosine indefinitely if possible. now, i've been told that

tyrosine will

eventually quit working / read that long term use is not advised.

-does anyone know if tyrosine use is a safe / effective treatment for the long

term?

QUESTION (part II)

i'm taking a few other supplements for SD simultaneously...

korean ginseng, ginkgo biloba, rhodiola,...and just recently, twin labs " horny

goat weed "

blend of horny goat weed, mucuna puriens, maca, muira puama, and a few other

odds and

ends.

- if tyrosine is unsafe / uneffective for the long term, is mucuna puriens the

next best

alternative for treating PSSD?

- is it safe / effective to be taking all of these supplements simultaneously to

treat PSSD?

THANK YOU!!!

adam

cincinnati, oh

[Guest guest]

i took a b-complex the next morning after i read your response, and " bam!, " the

tyrosine

was back in action! i'm getting plenty of B6 but have wondered if i was lacking

in the full

complex.

you were right on the money my friend :-)

thanks!

right on. i'm still playing around with rhodiola (taking it with tyrosine) and

am intrigued by

it's serotonin / dopamine / neonephrine (sp?) balancing abilities.

another user mentioned mucuna puriens, which sounds promising but i can't find

it in

stock here in cincinnati at whole foods. any opinion on em?

good call on the st. john's wort. it was messing me up just as much as lexapro

but i

believed all the hype about how fewer side effects it had comparatively.

if all goes well friday night, i will most certainly be rocking the viagra!

thanks!

right on survivor!!! endurance was abound last time (which made me feel like a

champ

from my anorgasmia) but not being able to orgasm myself is, as you probably

know, quite

upsetting after a while.

needless to say i will be rocking the viagra again friday night (if all goes

well)! i'd get some

cialis but my blue cross / blue shield insurance will not pay for doctor visits

/

prescriptions for any kind of SD anymore. fucking a-holes! how would they like

it if their

dicks didn't work?

Just mix some bupropion/dostinex/ritalin with something like

cialis/levitra. Thats all you need really. Unless testosterone is the

problem, have u had it checked?

[Guest guest]

We have only solgar and GNC products around for this stuff here, the

latter has seemingly less indrigents.

I think I have tried all the supplements mentioned here in various

doses for long enough to assess them. None did anything at all.

the b vitamins are all water soluble they disperse in urine quite

quickly, but during the time that they are in your body the liver

converts them to there active co enzyme versions, these are the

versions of the b vitamins that are active and directly influence

your cells. you can buy some b vitamins in these co enzyme forms b1 &

b6 i know about for sure.(they are more expensive though)

its always a good idea to use a comprehensive multi vitamin and

mineral supplement as the minerals are involved in the enzymological

process that convert things like water soluble b vitamins into there

active form.

personally ive just started to take a comprehensive amino acid

complex. (i think this is a good idea)

At my suggestion, my date got some sex lubricant at the store and

bam!! I could orgasm in 3mins instead of an hour. Also take some supps

to increase dopamine before the act. F^ch the ins co. and the doctor

visits, buy it underground. It's cheaper, just as good, and saves you

from the uncomfortable experience of going to the doctor.

And you deserve to have the sexual ability you were robbed of by the

fraud of psychiatry.

Just be careful about the sources, especially the horny goat weed.

Where was it havested? Don't take anything from Malaysia or Mexico.

Those places are known for importing herbs contaminated with

dangerously high amounts of lead. You don't want lead poisoning.

That definately won't be good for recovery.

A team of Malaysian scientists has recently examined the lead content

of Malaysian herbal supplements and found that some Malaysian tongkat

ali products have such a high lead content that even on the Malaysian

market, their sale is actually violating the law.

On quality webforums about fytotherapy and orthomolecular therapy you

can ask which brands are the safest. And for longterm use of a herbal

therapy you can grow your own herbs in your garden or in a pot inside

your house. You can make your own herbal medicine with those plants

using whiskey or cognac or by drying the relevant parts of the plant.

That also can save you a lot of money.
