    Need help finding a “Dopamine Agonist” that doesn’t have the side effects like C/L. What else is out there to stimulate Dopamine - without the mania, constipation and nightmares? Mucuna and B1 ( maybe not taking enough) don’t seem to be doing enough and the C/L causes other awful, debilitating ( nightmares, etc) side effects in my HWP.. But w/o the Dopamine Agonist, they aren’t as active and not wanting to do as much.. Anyone have experience w / Selegiline? Doing Mucuna, L-Dopa, L- Theanine and B1- but not making a dent yet. Am I not giving right iteration or dosage? Thanks in advance🙏🏽
