Hmmm... make you too happy?
Too little serotonin can lead to depression, anxiety, and mood disorders. Conversely, too much serotonin can result in serotonin syndrome, which can cause symptoms like confusion, agitation, elevated heart rate, and seizures.
Too much serotonin, known as serotonin syndrome, can cause symptoms such as confusion, increased heart rate, shivering, sweating, and in severe cases, seizures or even death. It can be caused by certain medications or supplements that increase serotonin levels in the body.
Cacao contains compounds that can increase serotonin levels in the brain. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that plays a role in regulating mood and emotions. Consuming cacao may help boost serotonin levels, potentially improving mood and overall well-being.
Serotonin 5HT3 antagonists work by blocking the action of serotonin on specific receptors in the gut and brain, which helps to reduce nausea and vomiting.
When someone has low serotonin levels, it means that there is a decrease in the amount of a chemical messenger called serotonin in their brain. This can lead to symptoms such as mood swings, anxiety, depression, and sleep disturbances.
This could lead to Serotonin Syndrome, where you have too much serotonin in your brain. This can lead to serious side effects, hospitalization, and even death.
Zoloft is an SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor). Tramadol is a painkiller with SNRI (serotonin and noadrenalin reuptake inhibitor) properties. This means that both Zoloft and tramadol have an effect on the neurotransmitter serotonin in the brain. This can result in too much serotonin in the brain. This is called Serotonin Syndrom, a very dangerous condition. Never mix multiple drugs that affect serotonin.
Yes it can cause a rare but serious syndrome that can be fatal.

Drugs can affect serotonin levels in the brain by either increasing or decreasing the amount of serotonin that is released or by changing how the brain processes serotonin. This can lead to changes in mood, behavior, and overall brain function.
I am assuming you are referring to the use of ecstasy (MDMA) which releases serotonin and is an SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor). You will feel awesomely happy and empathetic with other people but if this is done too much you will become intellectually slow (e-tard). I'm not sure the mechanism of this retardation because it hasn't been extensively studied but its effects can be seen at any rave. I think it has to do with serotonin toxicity and probably at too high of levels will kill brain cells. Not sure about that though.
depression
Too little serotonin can lead to depression, anxiety, and mood disorders. Conversely, too much serotonin can result in serotonin syndrome, which can cause symptoms like confusion, agitation, elevated heart rate, and seizures.
Yes, drugs can increase serotonin levels in the brain by either blocking the reuptake of serotonin or by mimicking its effects.

pretty much all of them, except for Wellbutrin
