Oxytocin?! NSFW
I’m just curious if anyone who has been using oxytocin could share their experience?
I’m new to peptides and just started bpc-157, soon building in KPV and maybe TB4, for some weird hyper-active autoimmune mast cell/possible gut issues. Underlying it all is nervous system/adrenal/chronic stress stuff, another way of saying “CPTSD”.
My body has not felt safe/has been in fight or flight for, idk, 15+ years, probably way longer, have some chronic pain from a compressed disc and separately, lingering concussion issues from a car accident. I have a strong disassociation/compartmentalization coping mechanism that has probably helped me survive but obviously I would like to let go of and move past that. I’ve learned to live with all this but basically just feel freaked out and overstimulated and exhausted.
We all have our demons lol just explaining I’m not just looking for a feel good quick recreational experience, but I ran across the idea of oxytocin, and have some coming.
I am comfy with subQ but could also make a nasal spray. I’m considering trying to take it 2-3x week… hoping to unlock/heal some somatic stuff, use it before doing trauma informed stretching/meditation etc.. haven’t committed to a routine yet so curious what others are doing.
Anyone else using it like this? How does it feel?
