My OAT says that I'm high in dopamine (da) and norepinehprine (ne) and a perfect score in serotonin (se), but everything about me and my mental heath problems screams low low low!
I've got no mental energy, apathetic, sleep too late, can't get to sleep, worry, depression, anxiety etc., it goes on and on. My symptoms aren't super overwhelming, usually, but they are omnipresent and have had a cumulative affect. I get easily addicted to stimulants and alcohol, but have thankfully been blessed with enough lethargy to quit using whenever I want.
When I read symptoms of low transmitters, I get the feeling that I'm low in ALL of them. GABA and acetylcholine included.
What gives? Is there a clue as to why my test would say HI, when my life says LOW?
