I feel a bit of a fraud registering here, as I have actually found the cure for my excessive anxiety and panic attacks.
However, I am still looking for something that will help my sleep problems and ADHD related memory problems, as well as perhaps something that will help keep me from babbling. But I suspect that has something to do with the structure of the prefrontal cortex rather than dopamine deficiency, so may not be cureable at all.
To cut a long story short, I've very recently found that eggs (or a small dose of inisotol) in the morning, helps me stay asleep at night. It's not the total solution though, as I still sometime have episodes of desperately needing to sleep in the daytime, and I know from experience a couple of months ago that it is possible for me to sleep a whole eight hours at night and not be stupidly tired at all in the daytime.
I am absolutely sure I can achieve this through normal food, I just have to figure out what!
I was going to leave this intro there, but I do just want to add that I am both rather pis.. ahem! cross and distinctly freaked out, that after years of suffering, and some godawful experiences with badly prescribed medications, I find that most of my problems are vanishing like the morning mist simply by changing my diet! And it was ME that had to figure it out, the doctors did touch on the subject, but not one in over 20 years, ever pursued it beyond asking if I ate a decent balanced diet.
Ok, I do recall one specialist mentioning when I asked him what had diet got to do with anything, that protein was important for providing neurotransmitters, but even he didn't say anything about even possibly needing more when under stress, or because I was/am overweight. . .etc. etc. Meh!
