Bringing the Project together

Bringing the Project Together 

Since this project is coming to a end, this research will not because there is so much to learn and discover about the brain and its pathways. From this topic of natural neurotransmitters, I have learned that the people who are on drugs and have gotten help have great will power because the physiology of the affects of drugs was much worse than I expected. The pre-frontal cortex has been hacked because there are 2 pathways to the amygdala: the thalamus and the pre-frontal cortex.  When drugs are taken, the drug will block the entrance of dopamine, norepinepherine, and serotonin into the almond like structure. With the block there is a large influx of these neurotransmitters that are left in the brain which is why the brain gets fuzzy and happiness is an affect. SSRI's are in antidepressants that put in serotonin to the brain but the pathways are not blocked so the feeling of joy is there but there is no negative affect except for addiction of the drug. That is why eating foods with high concentrations of SSRI's would prevent the blocked pathways, give the feeling of joy, and now the person would not have the addiction to the drug.
What I have learned about myself is that there are many different ideas that come to mind on different topics and how to fix the problem but they are so different that there could be many different cures. In my head, when reading the different aspects of drugs, there are many different paths the drugs and neurotransmitters can go through which makes solving the problem much harder.
Due to this restriction and knowing all of the different ideas I have come up with, my next step is to concentrate on one aspect that I can fix and also I will not be making a meal plan that contains a concentrated amount of SSRI's and then the body will react the same way but the paths will not be blocked. Then the concentration will go down over time so that the body can stay in its natural area.
This can help in highscool because many people get overly stressed and their pre-frontal cortex will shut down, but if they follow a meal plan that contains SSRI's then they will feel happier and they will calm down with the natural senses, resulting in an open pre-frontal cortex which is where creativity and common sense comes from. This will help students perform better on tests and also study better.
