the reason i mentioned benedryl is because it works the way artane does. on the other side of the dopamine equation. they use it in er for epileptics in seizure. benedryl works well for many atypicals.. like myself. one of my first symptoms was depression. not that benedryl works for depression, but my internal specialist and psychiatrist are working towards trying to figure out what all is off kilter and if benedryl works for me.. why? for me it works in relaxation of muscles and slows my breathing.

here is a fascinating link about dopamine.
