<p>Thanks for the link. It had a lot of interesting studies on it. I also googled for a link between histamine and dopamine levels, but mostly found articles saying histamine lowers dopamine. But some autism studies are looking at both. . . . . . . . . I have not had any luck meditating. it is very difficult.</p>

<p><span>I do believe that childhood trauma and traumatic upbringing in bad harsh environments do cause maladaptive daydreaming. MDD is also a form of escape mechanism a maladaptive behavior to escape the trauma in real life, and it is similar to task unrelated thought which is a result of negative feedback and criticism brought upon you by others or parents too.</span></p>

<p>I agree it is confusing. Your body produces histamine, but foods also have varying amounts of it. If your body doesn't produce enough of the enzyme that breaks down food histamine, it will build up in your body. Some foods don't have histamine but have a substance that triggers the release of it in your body. Sometimes the cells in your body that produce histamine are leaky and it builds up that way. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I discovered the connection when I was trying to get over…</p>

<p>I'm confused on what histamine is. I always thought it was what makes you sneeze, have allergies. You take things like Benadryl for it. I never heard of it being in food.</p>

Hmmm...interesting. Maybe MD is more of a biochemistry thing than a psychological thing.
