Unfathomably based. Cope and sneed, pro-"intellectual property"cels.

Here's a sneed post btw

Post ended up way too long, I'll keep this concise. I've studied these subjects religiously to the point where I outright have proven I'm better with this stuff than psychiatrists/ologists. Maybe I'm retarded and delusional, it's your call to believe me. Second post is just a summary of very useful and practices for make-brain-work-gooder intents for the general population

As long as the post isn't a shitpost I'll answer any questions that I can related to the following subjects
>general cognitive function and mental health
>mental disorders
>psychiatric meds
>drugs/nootropics
>sleep
>nutrition

A word on depression while I'm rambling:

Though every idiot self diagnoses depression (because being sad sometimes is a disorder), people who actually have it tend to understate their symptoms and don't talk about it nonstop. Real depression is completely measurable and is not simply a monoamine imbalance, or rather a lack of serotonin and is actually very complex and not well understood. It however is the body/brain fucking up and not a matter of "dude just think better b happy"

The problem is most antidepressants operate under the assumption there is a monoamine imbalance, which can be a cause but what more often than not happens is the person never had a serotonin deficit and the meds adding more causes emotional numbing and apathy. What's worse is more serotonin = less dopamine, hence further apathy and numbing.

While they MAY help depression, studies show they're not very helpful for anxiety and trauma disorders and can worsen them, studies ALSO cherrypick people with extreme symptoms.
