I'd really like to find some in the nasal spray form but any form will do. Anyone got a line on?

I am curious, my experience with Pitocin was so painful. What would someone want that for?

I have intractable mental illnesses, medical use of oxytocin is on the list of fringe/under-researched ideas that may help. Not looking to induce labor or anything, lol. What was your experience with Pitocin?

Oh ok, I was induced with pitocin and it was horrible. It worked so fast that I couldn't have an epidural or anything. I have read that Pitocin does not release the bonding/love/natural painkiller hormones like true oxytocin does, and that is why induced labors are so painful.

From what I can tell from the research on pharmacological use of oxytocin for mental illnesses the problem is that oxytocin released by MDMA and similar drugs is created within the brain via action with the serotonin system. Straight up taking oxytocin however doesn't cross the blood brain barrier in significant amounts so doesn't result in an MDMA like roll or anything, but there is some evidence that having oxytocin just circulating in the blood stream does have more subtle less pronounced effects similar to oxytocin in the brain - it's not well researched so is an open question.
