ESCAPE THE DEPLETION TRAP

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. Instead of bringing it into the new neuron and then dissipating it, it recycles. What happens when you do a reuptake event when you don't reuptake and you cycle is signaling? Says, I got all the serotonin I need. SSRIs. I absolutely do not recommend anybody jump off of SSR. Work with your practitioner to supplement and figure out ways to migrate through that and find the solution. But here's an interesting thing you can do is you start supplementing with the right components. We have a thing called upbeat that helps people to naturally increase serotonin levels in their body. If you have the right kind serotonin available and your body has the signaling molecules to activate that serotonin in the synapse, you'll raise your baseline of mood to a point where you feel better about what's going on without losing the emotional connection. When you have a recycling event, that signaling is going to tell your brain, hey, I got all the serotonin I need. And then when it wears off, you're at a depletion of serotonin. You don't feel good. You lack the empathetic connection with other people. You don't feel like putting a gun to your head. But you also maybe don't feel genuinely anything.
