In this 87th episode I discuss a rather rare, yet interesting reaction to medications that some people experience. A paradoxical reaction is one that the user experiences the opposite effect of the medication's intended purpose.
I explain just how something like the anti-anxiety medication Xanax can actually cause anxiety in certain people. And how similar effects can be seen with anti-histamine medications.
I also discuss a similar, though opposite experience people with ADHD have to stimulant medications like Adderall.
And I discuss just how the frontal lobe in our brains contribute to such a thing.
I finish with some insights into how to avoid situations like this by identifying root causes in the brain which could be at the core of the condition.
