The formula I have here in front of me- that striatal D2 stimulation produces cognitive flexibilty, while PFC D1 stimulation produces cognitive stability- seems far too simple. What do you think?You have indeed been helpful. I didn't realize how important the striatum was for cognition. I guess I'm trying to distinguish between the site of primary dysfunction and those areas that are affected as secondary.
Have you ever played with melatonin to help adjust your circadian rhythm?
