Oxytocin and Mental Health
Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes
AllCEUs Counselor Continuing Education
Objectives
~ Learn about the functions of oxytocin
~ Identify how oxytocin may impact mood, cognition, behavior (including addiction) and social functioning
~ Explore current research involving the use of intranasal oxytocin for treatment
What is Oxytocin
~ Oxytocin can function as a:
~ Stress-coping molecule with protective effects especially in the face of adversity or trauma
~ Anti-inflammatory
~ Antioxidant
~ Immunomodulator
~ Oxytocin also enhances socialization including motivation for pair bonding, sexual activity, affiliative preferences, empathy / emotional IQ (social salience hypothesis) and parental behaviors
~ The effects of oxytocin are context-dependent (an environment of safety and cooperation vs. protection) and altered by experience, especially early life experience
Oxytocin
~ Oxytocin impacts dopaminergic activity which is crucial not only for reward and motivated behavior and the expression of affiliative behaviors
~ In response to extreme stress, oxytocin can activate vasopressin receptors
~ Individuals with low concentrations of endogenous oxytocin might be more likely to experience increased vasopressin-like reactions when given oxytocin
~ Bacterial diversity and composition in the gut uniquely influence the release of oxytocin
~ Gut microbiome changes in response to stress and communicates these changes, via the vague nerve, to the brain
Summary
~ The exploration of the impact of oxytocin on the mind and body has only just begun
~ Oxytocin can promote both prosocial/affiliative and protective/aggressive behaviors
~ Oxytocin release is based on prior learning and current contextual cues.
~ In the presence of a threat and a need to protect, oxytocin can activate vasopressin receptors.
~ Oxytocin can promote fear processing and aggression when the person does not feel safe, and especially in the aftermath of an acute stressor.

Wealth of information here
TY! I agree :) We are growing....
This is so helpful in my thorough understanding to prepare for the EPPP, and my work as a neuropsychologist. Thank you!
You're so welcome!
New subscriber you are amazing at explaining it in simple terms.
I’m so glad you touch the borderline personality spectrum what you’re saying makes a lot of sense. Thank you so much.
Welcome, Mexican Beauty Queen. Thank you for subscribing. I am glad to have you here. Please let me know if you are interested in videos on addressing BPD, I have many free videos on the channel on BPD and on multiple topics.
Anxiety driven burnouts.
Or coping self medication recreationally in the younger creates big depressive moods with high anxieties and paranoia
Thank you for watching. What was your favorite tip from the video?
@@DocSnipes My favorite tip from the video is always it's implications. It triggers new pathways in me about what it all means for me and for other people, in terms of not just in the future, but in understanding how things work now.
Thank you for such clear explanation of complex interactions in the body
.much appreciated
You are very welcome
Fascinating!
Thank you for watching the video
Really LOVE your videos. Thank you for sharing all this great and valuable information. 😀
You are so welcome!
Thank you for your effort to produce this useful content.
So nice of you
Thank you for this video
. It explains a lot.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for all your knowledge and sharing.
So nice of you
Great upload, thank you for sharing! Stay healthy and safe! 👍😊🍓
Ty
Thank you so much for this video. The topic is really important for self-help! How can oneself heal insecure attachments from the childhood? What is meant with fear response or protection response? Love your videos really a lot!
I am writing this over a year after you wrote it, but I really connect with what you are saying and agree totally.
I really look at your love of using studies for the latest and greatest new research material as motivational for me. People pushing the edge of the envelope are good to watch and keep up with! 👀 Right when you think it is "game over" there is new hope again. This is good for people with depression who are low on hope.
I am so grateful to be of help, Kitty Kat!Thank you so much for watching!
YES, NEVER NEVER NEVER GIVE UP...
SOME GREAT MINDS, INTELLIGENT PEOPLE, GENIUSES ARE WORKING ON SOLUTIONS
AWESOME video!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Your work is fantastic! Is there any chance, as it is long and dense, to add time stamps to your already detailed description? That would help a lot for future reference. Thanks for this great video!

@@jasonsignor7237 Got it thanks!!
What would the long term effects be on a person, or population, that took oxytocin unnecessarily?
In other words...if a group of "normal" people were given oxytocin...what behaviors could we expect to see?
Edit: particularly in males with regards to chronic stress
very interesting
Ty
Great video, thanks for sharing! See you around! 🎧🎵😎
Thanks. :)
Thanks! I wanted to know what it was before i listened to Billies new song Oxytocin:)
Thanks for watching
Same.
13:31 , first thought is to increase "tribe up" incentive and tolerance.
- A needs to accept that C is a jerk but really good at solving a deficit of the group, so we can't boot C until the stress is solved.
Thanks for watching. Wishing you peace, health, and happiness.
How do we naturally increase oxytocin?
There may be some relationship to altered oxytocin receptors and psychopathy
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Oxytocin was used by the Lion whisperer to get two lions together at a faster rate and it worked

26:10 : Cannabinoids ≠ Endocannabinoids.
Its crazy that your off the street Endo and Primary care isnt using this. Its used in HRT from docs with advanced training. But this stuff is cheap, alot safer and essentially no side effects compared to hard big pharma drugs...
Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@DocSnipes Btw Doc Snipes please take my idea. Ive been tosing around doing a State of TBI each year, get Dr Mark Gordon, Dr Abe Morgantaler and name ur expert. And define and come up with actionable protocols for TBI patients but a plan for doctors. I dont have the energy with my TBI. This is something with your setup and reach that would be effective. Were on the same page and I think this can help alot of people.
there ya go.
Thanks for watching the video
at 26:19 I see an error. You said "The endocannabinoids..THC And CBD". I believe you meant exogenous cannabinoids. They are derived from exogenous plants. Endocannabinoids would be Anandamide, 2-AG and ethanolamide (may be spelt incorrectly). I am not picky or trying to call you out on you're errors, they are honest mistakes I believe. If I was to make a video I would appreciate it if someone filled me in on errors or incorrect information.
You are right, THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol) are not endocannabinoids. Endocannabinoids are compounds produced naturally within the human body, and they interact with the endocannabinoid system. THC and CBD are phytocannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. They interact with the same system in the body but are derived externally from plants rather than being produced internally. Thanks for watching the video
😊😊 40:40
Thanks so much for watching closely. Have a great day. :)
too much oxytocin could cause hairloss and prostate hyperplasia in men? thanks
That’s the reason I recommend the use of natural substance like psychedelic mushroom and other psychedelic products that works great without side effect , I can’t remember what it feels to be depressed because it’s been a long time I felt that after the use of psychedelic mushroom it works magic , after I was advised to get some , I get mine from an online vendor which specializes in the growth of psychedelic mushroom and other psychedelic products

38:06 As a person with severe Body Dysmorophia & Oxytocin problems, I'll give my perspective:
People who have a distorted self-image are Extremely self-centered bordering on Narcissistic. As a result (or Because of this-), they have lots of other problems & fixing their oxytocin issues, simply Takes Off the Mask & reveals their real personality.
have you taken oxytocin?
I hate to be so glowing, but in mythological terms you would be akin to "The Goddess of Love" of Higher Education. Practical advice from a Goddess who "understands" on a deeper level 🧞♀. I have a goddess "outfit". Maybe I will put in on when it gets warm (it's for the summer), but it is gold, with gold sandals, and my skin will be golden brown from the sun. I bought it a few years ago but never wore it! Maybe I am identifying with you, Doc Snipes. How much fun is that! It's a little like you are a ROLE MODEL., one of my first (my mother was a ***tch and a cold narcissist, competing to the end with her daughter, and I did not want to be that).
Thank you for being so kind, for watching videos and thank you for supporting the channel, Kitty Kat.
