It’s winter and that can affect your vitamin D levels. Vitamin D deficiency affects neurotransmitters. I also wonder if your thyroid hormone has been optimized. It’s easier said than done. Studies show thyroid hormone, specifically T3, improves mood better than prescription antidepressants. T3 medications are not the same as T4 drugs (Synthroid or Levoxyl). Here’s how “weird” neurotransmitter imbalances can make you feel:

Dopamine- Deficiencies make you crave alcohol, illicit drugs, opiate pain killers and cigarettes. Yes, correcting dopamine levels can help addiction. But too much dopamine is associated with aggression and paranoia. Imbalances with this neurotransmitter (especially when low) are tied to Parkinson’s, depression, attention/focus problems, schizophrenia, spectrum disorders, and autism.

Histamine- It makes you sneeze but did you know that chronically high levels are tied to migraines and eczema, and obsessive compulsive behavior? Low levels cause fatigue, low libido and paranoia.

Serotonin- Popular antidepressants lift it temporarily including the Zoloft. Deficiencies can cause fatigue, muscle cramps, irritability and always feeling hot. High serotonin is tied to bone loss, irritable bowels, trembling, nausea, and a feeling of overconfidence that some might call arrogance.

Norepinephrine- If low you’ll have profound adrenal fatigue and stubborn weight gain. You’ll want energy shots all day long.

GABA- Deficient symptoms are insomnia and anxiety evident to those around you.

Epinephrine- High levels and you’re too aggressive. Despite commercial ads, there isn’t one pill to fix this, you have to do different tests, and then use specific nutrients that push the correct metabolic pathway which produces the neurotransmitter or hormone you want.
