I found a cool sight that I wanted to quote here:
I discovered that part of the reason that gabaa receptors may malfunction in some cases is due to a malfunction with the gephyrin protein, which is a protein that helps concentrate and localize gabaa receptors into clusters, which allows them to effectively signal and function. Notably, gephyrin deficiency is implicated in alzheimers disease.
finasteride likewise induced some kind of gephyrin deficiency in us which in turn caused gaba receptor malfunctioning and all the things associated with it (non-responsiveness to alcohol, stiff muscles etc).
That being said, I have stumbled across a substance called dihydromyricetin. This supplement is typically used for hangover relief and treating alcoholism, but it also has the effect of increasing the production of gephyrin protein in the body as well. In fact, there is being research done to see if it can be used to treat alzheimers

I’ll edit this when I’m at a computer to give the blog post credit but wanted to get this posted as I notice my gaba receptors changing in recent months. I more social, alcohol seems to be leading me to feel tipsy & drunk and social. Still, I’ve always had stiff muscles but not debilitating so I won’t credit any fin or anything to that issue yet.
I’m reading a ton on this dhm supplement now too. Just want this posted so ppl can check it out.
