A clarification for everyone who is interested in BPC-157

BPC-157 is a peptide where BPC stands for Body Protective Compound. It greatly accelerates the healing of injuries and many of its actions are related to DNA repair.
If you have anhedonia/depression caused by drug abuse, you might have a brain injury that caused these problems, and therefore BPC-157 can help.
HOWEVER, if you always had anhedonia/depression, and it's just part of your DNA, BPC-157 won't cure this because your body sees your brain as healthy tissue - it has no DNA damage, the anhedonia is a normal part of your DNA, therefore BPC-157 won't fix it.

Example: Person A has had anhedonia his entire life, Person B has had anhedonia as a result of drug abuse. Both take BPC-157. Person B will significantly benefit because his anhedonia is a result of brain injury from drugs. Person A is unlikely to benefit since the anhedonia is just part of his genetic code, so there's nothing here to repair - this does not count as an injury in Person A (since he was born with it), it just counts as a feature.
****
TL;DR: BPC-157 is great for injuries, particularly for DNA damage, but it won't heal issues that you had from the day you were born, because they count as a norma…

I didn't draw any conclusions at all. I merely cited some interesting studies I found, and said that there might be more to BPC-157's effect on the dopamine system than I originally thought. Notice the use of the words "might" "possibly" and "may?"
Do you have an argument or comment on the data at all, or are you just going to point at the lack of MD behind my name as evidence that I cannot possibly understand the pharmacological mechanisms at play here? You seem to be on a roll with that on a couple subreddits, and it does not appear to be a winning strategy to get people to listen to your perspective.
