For who?

Democrat?...Republican?.....................Sam e idiots with different bull****.

While the time for revolution is already at least 40 yrs overdue, it will
never happen.....Thanks to Prozac.

"There will be, in the next generation or so, a pharmacological method of
making people love their servitude, and producing dictatorship without
tears, so to speak, producing a kind of painless concentration camp for
entire societies, so that people will in fact have their liberties taken
away from them, but will rather enjoy it, because they will be distracted
from any desire to rebel by propaganda or brainwashing, or brainwashing
enhanced by pharmacological methods. And this seems to be the final
revolution."

- Aldous Huxley's lecture to The California Medical School in
San Francisco


Although Huxley's comments were doubtlessly prompted by his
experiences with mescaline, it seems that our brains are entirely
capable of producing such a "love drug." Below is an excerpt from a
recent article on the effects of oxytocin:



http://www.newscientist.com/channel/...l-illness.html
'Cuddle chemical' could treat mental illness

* 14 May 2008
* New Scientist.com news service
* Maria Salacity

IT has been called the love hormone, the cuddle chemical and
liquid trust. It peaks with orgasm, makes a loving touch magically
melt away stress and increases generosity when given as a drug.
Oxytocin is the essence of affection itself, the brain chemical
that warmly bonds parent to child, lover to lover, friend to
friend, and it could soon be unleashing its loved-up powers far
and wide.

Oxytocin has long been used to induce labour and assist the
let-down of milk in breastfeeding. Now there is growing interest
in its potential as a therapy for mental illnesses characterized
by "people problems" - autism, personality disorders, depression,
social phobia, psychosis and even impotence. Some tout it as an
elixir that makes you more likeable, trustworthy and attractive.
Decoding its mysteries could even lead to the development of a
powerful new recreational drug that makes ecstasy look like a mild
dose of cheerfulness.

Oxytocin was discovered in 1909, when British pharmacologist
Henry Dale found that a substance extracted from the human brain
could cause contractions in pregnant cats. He named it using the
Greek for "quick birth", and for decades it was known only for its
role as a pregnancy hormone, promoting contractions and aiding
breastfeeding.

In the 1970s it started to become clear that oxytocin was more
than just a hormone - it was also a neurotransmitter. Released
from a brain region called the hypothalamus during social
interactions and sex, oxytocin is detected by receptors throughout
the brain's emotional centre, the limbic system. This discovery
prompted scientific interest that has mushroomed ever since, with
oxytocin now one of the hottest topics in neuroscience.

The groundbreaking work on oxytocin's role in the brain was done
by C. Sue Carter, then at the University of Maryland in College
Park. She studied two closely related species of vole - prairie
voles (Microtus ochrogaster) and montane voles (Microtus montanus)
- which differ primarily in their reproductive behaviour. Prairie
voles form long-lasting pair bonds to rear young whereas montane
voles mate promiscuously and fathers do not contribute to
parenting.

Carter discovered that the key to the different behaviours was
oxytocin. Female prairie voles have many oxytocin receptors in
their brains' pleasure centres, while the males have lots of
receptors for both oxytocin and a closely related hormone,
vasopressin. In montane voles, however, there are far fewer
receptors for oxytocin and vasopressin. When these receptors are
blocked in prairie voles the animals do not form the usual pair
bonds. Carter concluded that oxytocin released in the brain during
mating bonds prairie voles to one other, making further contact
with that partner pleasurable and separation stressful
(Psychoneuroendocrinology, vol 23, p 779).

Bonding and friendship

It also turns out that oxytocin plays a central role in bonding
mothers to their offspring and in social behaviour generally. If
oxytocin is blocked in rats and mice, for example, they stop
nurturing their young and lose their ability to recognise familiar
members of their species. "Animals without oxytocin have social
amnesia," says Larry Young of Emory University in Atlanta,
Georgia.

Overall, oxytocin's role in the brain appears to be to link social
contact with pleasure. Without it, social species could not
function. This, of course, includes humans. Evidence is emerging
that oxytocin plays a central role in many aspects of human life,
including romantic and social interactions and parenting. "It's
the glue of society, so simple yet so profound," says Paul Zak,
director of the Center for Neuroeconomics Studies in Claremont,
California. As an example of its far-reaching effects, Zak and his
colleagues have found that people given oxytocin become
substantially more generous and trusting in tasks that involve
sharing money with strangers (Nature, vol 435, p 673).
...

As a result of such work, Hollander is interested to see whether
oxytocin can help alleviate disorders associated with early
overwhelmingly associated with childhood trauma. People with this
disorder have severe relationship problems, find social stress
difficult to cope with and rejection unbearable.

If oxytocin can help treat borderline personality disorder, then
it could help rescue abused and neglected children from a lifetime
of mental health problems. These children are at higher risk of
developing virtually every psychiatric illness, from
post-traumatic stress disorder to addiction, depression, anxiety
disorders, antisocial personality disorder and schizophrenia.

The list of potential applications for oxytocin doesn't stop
there. Heinrichs is studying oxytocin as a therapy for social
phobia, an anxiety disorder characterised by crippling
self-consciousness. Ziad Nahas at the Medical University of South
Carolina in Charleston is looking at oxytocin as a treatment for
depression, which is also marked by social withdrawal. A team at
the National Institute of Mental Health in Bethesda, Maryland, is
even investigating its use in treating psychosis, which can be
seen as an extreme fear of others.

Oxytocin may also help a different type of social interaction
problem: erectile dysfunction. Zak notes that about 25 per cent of
male volunteers given oxytocin in his trust experiments get
erections, while Meyer Jackson of the University of
Wisconsin-Madison has found that Viagra affects oxytocin levels,
making neurons that are already releasing it churn out even more
(Journal of Physiology, vol 584, p 137). As yet oxytocin's role in
erection isn't known, but it's an interesting avenue for future
research.

Climactic events

The link between Viagra and oxytocin also hints at why the little
blue pill has a reputation as an enhancer of sex, rather than
simply a facilitator. Since large amounts of oxytocin are released
as both men and women reach climax, it's possible that Viagra
potentiates and enhances orgasm. "There are lots of anecdotes and
nonscientific chatter about Viagra enhancing sex, but now that
there is a plausible mechanism, it would be worthwhile performing
a definitive study," says Jackson. He has also suggested giving
Viagra to women to help during childbirth (see "Labour of love").
“There has been a lot of chatter about enhancing sex, but now
there's a plausible mechanism”

Perhaps unsurprisingly for a chemical that is intimately
associated with sex, love and pleasure, there is much speculation
about oxytocin's potential as a recreational drug. However, the
question of whether oxytocin is pleasurable - and if so, under
what conditions - has been maddeningly difficult to resolve. What
little evidence there is suggests that oxytocin won't be the next
OxyContin - a prescription painkiller that was abused
recreationally in the late 1990s, resulting in thousands of people
being admitted to hospital.

"We spent a lot of time asking, 'Will oxytocin be desirable if it
is injected into the brain?'," says Jaak Panksepp of Washington
State University in Pullman, a long-time oxytocin researcher. He
expected that it would be, so he tried to find out.

A standard test for whether a drug is likely to be misused is to
give it to rats and see whether they develop a preference for the
location where they received it, as they do with cocaine and
heroin. Panksepp tried this with oxytocin but saw no reaction.
"Over and over, we never saw a very clear place preference," he
says.

So what effect would oxytocin have if taken recreationally in
humans? Panksepp has tried taking it and says he felt only a mild
effect. "I seemed to be in a more relaxed 'in the moment' mood,
with a greater confidence and appreciation of my connectedness to
other people and nature," he says. Most people, however, cannot
tell whether they've been given oxytocin or a placebo. Women seem
slightly more likely to report subjective effects like calmness,
according to Panksepp. Hollander, meanwhile, says his subjects
experience "no rush, high or euphoria".

Anecdotal evidence also suggests that the abuse potential of
oxytocin is low. Oxytocin is sold freely in many countries in the
form of a nasal spray to help stimulate breastfeeding. If it had
abuse potential you can bet your bottom dollar that there would be
a thriving underground market, yet there are no reports of people
buying oxytocin for recreational use. That hasn't stopped some
internet entrepreneurs from selling oxytocin as a "trust elixir"
that, when sprayed on your clothes, will make people find you more
congenial, attractive and trustworthy. Whether there's any truth
in this claim has yet to be tested scientifically.

So why does a substance that seems so likely to be rewarding have
so little subjective effect - or none at all? It could be that,
early in life, oxytocin wires the connection between social
contact and pleasure, but the pleasure itself comes from the
reward regions, not oxytocin itself.
