⚠️WHAT HAPPENS WITH OVERACTIVATION/DESENSITISATION:
▷ANTICIPATORY ANXIETY; e.g "can't wait for" behavior, impatient in lines, awaiting the arrival of goods causing anxiety,
or anxiously awaiting paycheck.
▷Dampened Emotions; bluntness, shallow faced, expressionless, indifferent.
This is because of serotonin 5-HT1A’s interactions with the opioidergic systems, as well inhibition of
amygdala dopamine and glutamate activity which normally act to facilitate these emotions.
▷Low / Slow Sexual response, low libido, delayed ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, hypoactive sexual desire/arousal in women.
