Thoughts, Feelings, Food, Drugs and Your Holiday Chemistry

Send us Fan MailSummary:  The chemistry of your mind and body are almost always changed by the medications you take.  But there is more to it than that.  These changes are changing, in response to both your medications and in response to your thoughts, feelings, food, exercise, and sleep.  About the medications, we focus on the benefit you might receive, and the possible risks associated with a potential drug therapy.  And we keep track of it.  This is always a good idea.  But what about how you think and eat and sleep and move?  Let's talk about it. Topics:·      Pharmacokinetics & Pharmacodynamics 01:30·      Drugs “On board” 02:30·      Drugs & Your Chemistry 03:00·      Cookies & Your Chemistry 04:30·      Exercise, Sleep & Your Chemistry 05:00·      Diet, Thinking, Feeling & Your Chemistry 06:00·      Cortisol & Chronic Stress 06:30·      GABA Receptors (Benzodiazepines) 07:45·      Be nice? 08:40·      Meds & Risk-Benefit 09:00·      Hurricane Helene 09:15·      Premarin (pregnant horse urine) 12:15·      Depression…You Are Not Alone 14:15·      Depression Help Resources 15:15       Suicide & Crisis Lifeline = 988       Crisis Text Line = 741741       Outside of U.S = Befrienders Worldwide·      John Prine “Hello in There” 16:00Questions and comments to  [email protected]
