2-Minute Neuroscience: Zolpidem (Ambien)
Zolpidem, better known by the brand name Ambien, is a medication primarily used to treat insomnia and other sleep-related problems. In this video, I discuss the safety and effectiveness of zolpidem as well as how it works in the brain to promote sleep.
TRANSCRIPT:
Zolpidem, better known by the brand name Ambien, is a medication primarily used to treat insomnia and other sleep-related problems. Studies have found zolpidem to be effective in reducing sleep latency, or the amount of time it takes someone to fall asleep, as well as in increasing total sleep time. Zolpidem belongs to a class of medications known as non-benzodiazepine hypnotics, sometimes called Z-drugs because many of the first...

10-Minute Neuroscience: Depression
Просмотров 11 тыс.5 месяцев назад
In this video, I discuss the neuroscience of depression. First, I cover the serotonin hypothesis, which suggests depression is caused by low levels of serotonin in the brain, and I explain why this hypothesis does not fully explain what’s happening in the brain to cause depression. Then, I cover several other hypotheses, including those that focus on dysregulation in the HPA axis, immune system...

10-Minute Neuroscience: Visual Pathways
Просмотров 44 тыс.8 месяцев назад
In this video, I cover the pathway visual information travels moving from the eye to the visual cortex and surrounding areas. First, I discuss the components of the eye that focus light on the retina. Then, I describe the anatomy of the retina along with the functions of the different cell types found there. Next, I cover the pathways that carry visual information from the retina to the primary...
2-Minute Neuroscience: DMT
Просмотров 59 тыс.9 месяцев назад
DMT is naturally produced in a variety of plants and animals (including humans) and is also a potent psychoactive drug known for its ability to cause intense hallucinations and psychedelic experiences. In this video, I discuss how DMT might act in the brain to produce its unique effects. TRANSCRIPT: DMT is a substance that’s produced naturally in a variety of plants and animals, including human...
2-Minute Neuroscience: Cochlear Implants
Просмотров 14 тыс.10 месяцев назад
A cochlear implant is an electronic device that can restore sound perception in people with certain types of severe hearing loss by picking up sound from the environment, converting that sound into electrical impulses, and transmitting those impulses directly to the auditory nerve. In this video, I discuss the components of a cochlear implant and how they work together to create sound perceptio...
10-Minute Neuroscience: Action Potentials
Просмотров 34 тыс.10 месяцев назад
In this video, I cover the basics of the action potential beginning with an explanation of membrane potential and how it sets the stage for the action potential. Then, I describe how an action potential is generated and how it ends. I cover the propagation of an action potential down the axon and the role myelin plays in this process. Finally, I discuss the absolute and relative refractory peri...
10-Minute Neuroscience: Synapses
Просмотров 58 тыс.11 месяцев назад
In this video, I cover the different components of a synapse, including the presynaptic neuron, postsynaptic neuron, synaptic cleft, and synaptic vesicles. I discuss how signals are propagated at chemical synapses through the use of neurotransmitters, as well as how neurotransmitters are removed from the synaptic cleft by enzymes and/or reuptake. I also cover the components and function of elec...
10-Minute Neuroscience: Neurons
Просмотров 46 тыс.Год назад
In this video, I cover all of the main parts of a neuron including the dendrites, cell body (soma), axon hillock, axon, and axon terminals (synaptic boutons). I describe how a signal travels from the dendrites of a neuron, down the axon, and to the axon terminals to communicate with another neuron through the release of neurotransmitters. I also describe ways of categorizing neurons based on st...

    I wonder what about the mechanisms of action cause sleepiness and suicidal ideation. Tried Concerta once and I could not even drive home from where I was I was so sleepy, and couldn't stop crying and thinking about suicide for two hours. I have mild ADHD and depression and respond very well to Adderall and Dexedrine, Vyvanse doesn't do anything for me but Concerta was its own Hell.

      Actually their determination to identify as an animal commonly stems from the desire for beastiality not lycanthropy. They are also called Zoophiles. Any honest furry will admit their desire to perform acts as their animal character or with other animals and many platforms such as Second Life serve as masterbaitory sanctuaries. They do not believe they are actually animals, they just wish to identify as such out of their perverse urges. It's no different than those who abuse children, but rather it is dogs.

    People talk about weed having a side effect of anxiety, but I personally just think weed gets you sucked into what you’re immersed in, which means when an anxious thought comes along you latch onto it hardcore. I treat weed like a psychedelic. Set and setting are crucial, don’t just go get stoned at the funeral you’re attending

Is this a problem in a part of the brain or is it a chemical issue with sodium, diffusion ? Anything I should specifically search for in the videos to watch? Thank you !

And most of them refuse to listen. They assume that caffeine = wakefulness everytime forever with no side effects, and so problems remain.
