Deconstructing internalized beliefs is cool. Its kinda like flashing the eeprom. Gotta deprogramming someone to install another program. Some might call this therapy. https://t.co/ymWp0AQ7Jw

If you, say, wanted to erase someone's eeprom, I might suggest starting with the Hippocampus."The hippocampus has been the subject of extensive investigation over the last 50 years as the site of plasticity thought to be critical for memory encoding."https://t.co/cRDNjk2Mop

Don't mind me, just trying to figure out how our gut microbiota may effect social behavior memories via what I suspect is chemically induced brain fog via Synaptic Plasticity ala Fluoxetine (Prozac).https://t.co/3zHkgJCx8Thttps://t.co/hRCIElKkdd

TFW: Reading a science publication that suggests the efficacy of Talk Therapy is on par with taking SSRIs, and then realizing that I could just eat bacteria shit and cure my treatment resistant depression. https://t.co/jN5azdd0ep

Oh, hey, I know a drug that seems to impact that too.https://t.co/ywJBjl3yfx

I'm not researching various drugs associated with Mk*Ultra's and possible ties to the microbiome. I have no idea what you're talking about. What do you mean Cytochrome P450 mutations change the response to serotonin associated drugs?https://t.co/TWIaAswV76

If LSD blocks serotonin receptors, would that mean a glut of serotonin the system being metabolized to melatonin?https://t.co/JWXHKt6KxT

Going to start collecting articles talking about how the stuff they were researching to effect memory and recall "don't work" and haven't been proven by science. Because 90% of the time that 'science' is mouse models. and well...https://t.co/alaSg6iNED

Oh hey, bath salts do cause itch. As do most cathinones.https://t.co/wLR7Pj85P4https://t.co/VdYVMKSQAs

I wish we knew more about SSRIs and other serotonin regulation mechanisms impact stuff in OCD and itch. I think something is there that seems to coincide w/ my own biology. Sometimes I can't stop itching & thinking about them once surprised by an insect.https://t.co/7AgcbT91LS

Whats that, Synthetic Cathiones cause your body's temperature sensing to run haywire and makes you over heat? Is that why it's reported that people strip off their clothes? Now to explain the growling.https://t.co/6wyRWNgE8Z

@eigenrobot @HundredthIdiot would be wild if the TRP receptors resposnible for peppers burning are also hit in an interesting way by meth. I know eating habeneros makes me entire stomach feel very very odd.Might be "bugs crawling" sensation, but I wouldn't know.https://t.co/ISs0tbmvVe

Google search seems to confuse Cathiones with Cocain.Still this is interesting: Just like how microbiota impact drugs that impact Parkinsons, it also mediates the effect many illicit drugs.https://t.co/DDFlfFM8xi

As Synthetic Cathiones effectively an ingredient in khat, one could argue similarities in body response (itch, heat) isn't unexpected:"Some of amphetamine's substituted derivatives occur in nature, for example in the leaves of Ephedra and khat plants."https://t.co/bc90WG3FBc
