This one is way out there. I'm sure your doctor would never think of prescribing 'magic mushrooms' to combat your depressive state because your doctor did nothing to stop the neuronal cascade of death. Hell, we can't even get marijuana off the Schedule I drug list and that has tons of proven research.

Researchers at the Psychiatric University Hospital of Zurich have now
shown that psilocybin, the bioactive component in the Mexican magic
mushroom, influences the amygdala, thereby weakening the processing of
negative stimuli. These findings could "point the way to novel
approaches to treatment" comments the lead author Rainer Krähenmann on
the results which have now been published in the medical journal Biological Psychiatry.
Psilocybin inhibits the processing of negative emotions in the amygdala
The
processing of emotions can be impaired by various causes and elicit
mental disorders. Elevated activity of the amygdala in response to
stimuli leads to the neurons strengthening negative signals and
weakening the processing of positive ones. This mechanism plays an
important role in the development of depression and anxiety disorders.
Psilocybin intervenes specifically in this mechanism as shown by Dr.
Rainer Krähenmann's research team of the Neuropsychopharmacology and
Brain Imaging Unit led by Prof. Dr. Franz Vollenweider.

Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 29,112 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke.DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER, BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.
What this blog is for:
My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.
