Your theory on thyroid is something that’s come up a lot because the receptors it can stimulate and occupy do include the thyroid, though there’s no direct evidence of that as of yet, and even on HCG my thyroid numbers didn’t change. I’m on thyroid meds including T3, and have seen some similarities there, but I don’t think it’s the thyroid itself that’s doing it so much as what T3 and HCG both trigger somewhere else, like potentially dopamine and norepinephrine and epinephrine in the adrenal glands or something. I’ve done a bunch of different things that trigger that same ‘feeling’, so it’s more likely the stimulation it provides some people like us causing something to happen. Also explains why some things that do it have a ‘tapering off’ to zero after a bit. When they’re new, they’re stimulating, then you return to baseline, similar to the honeymoon period most people have on TRT when starting. And even the actual honeymoon period in relationships.
Doing an experiment on that pretty soon with selegiline to verify it. MAO-B inhibitor that’ll give more mileage to my dopamine and norepinephrine and epinephrine.
