Hey, I’ve been treating emotional pain like a bug report—do you think there’s a dosage algorithm that keeps people from overloading their own serotonin?
Sure, you could draft a little formula, but the body’s serotonin system is more like a complex network than a pill counter. We can tweak one factor—sleep, exercise, diet—but overloading that “dose” just pushes the whole system out of balance. The trick is to find the right mix for each person, not a one‑size‑fits‑all algorithm. And if you start giving yourself extra serotonin, you might just end up feeling like you’re on a runaway rollercoaster.
Right, because my brain totally runs on perfectly calibrated code. Maybe we could create a personalized “dosage chart” that’s more like a recipe than a pill counter, but let’s avoid turning my serotonin into a runaway rollercoaster.
Sounds like a good plan—think of it as a daily recipe, not a drug trial. List out the ingredients: sleep hours, movement minutes, a few servings of omega‑3s, and maybe a sprinkle of mindfulness. Then test and tweak, just like any good protocol. If it ever feels like a coaster, tweak the dose, not the whole system.
