Sarah's Scribbles by Sarah Andersen for December 05, 2020

Had to look up what Serotonin is. (Insert “Now You Know” Star)

I’m looking for a dopamine fix.

PET THE KITTY!!!

now we know the cat’s name….

Ah the peace of a purring cat on ones lap.

Brain through the wasteland…

Perhaps, Sarah-tonin?

Ahh, Sarah is a reductionist, how disillusioning…

Ah, here’s my little anti-depressant now….

My house-feral, Gandalf, crawled onto my lap this morning. This is a first . . . after he’s been indoors for 4 years now. (Stockholm Syndrome! Seratonin!)

I get this feeling when my gerbil comes up to me in the playpen.

As is my brain.

Oxytocin: (from Google): Oxytocin is a hormone secreted by the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland, a pea-sized structure at the base of the brain. It’s sometimes known as the “cuddle hormone” or the “love hormone,” because it is released when people snuggle up or bond socially.

This is SO true… I know it’s driven by our chemical reactions, but a snuggling/sitting/purring cat anywhere near me is simply Heaven.

(Hanta)Sero)tonin. Please get my reference.
