    Turns out I can have chapters on a video! So you might notice it's handily split into sections.
    If you want to find a particular topic the old school way though, here you go:
    0:00 Intro
    1:10 Symptoms of Huntington's
    3:52 Broad causes in the brain
    5:40 Genetics of Huntington’s and more detailed causes
    12:01 Treatments- both current and potential
    14:59 Useful links, thanks, and wrap up
    17:18 Outtakes and links to other videos

      Ooooh, chapters... Cool!
      Still watching from start to finish, I'm not a neurologist so I'm bound to need some of the more basic info along the way.

    I had forgotten how much of a banger the X-Men theme tune was 😅 I promise that's not the main thing I learned, but I'm very grateful for it too

    Awesome video! Really interesting -- I'm curious if you found anything in your research about how tetrobenazine about how the lower dopamine levels affect people given the importance of dopamine in general

    I have Huntingon's Disease, and ADD/ADHD and COPD and Fibromyalgia. The drug the Dr. recently put me on was Trazadone!! It's working amazingly for my Nervousness every day, and anxiety, also help a bit with my depression! It's 25mg and primarily used for Insomnia but seems to be working well and I'm feeling a lot less agitated and Irritable on it so far.

    Our conversation about mental health would be great if you could get a video out for the start of this
    Mental Health Awareness Week will take place from 18-24 May 2020.
    Think it was he subject of how chemicals in our brains affect us, and if some one is imbalanced, how that imbalanced can effect them, it is a subject that is very close to my heart as I suffer from it, been diagnosed with BPD, CPTSD, social anxiety, and also being tested for asd too

    Early stage is behavioral. My ex started throwing and fighting, then going out drinking and sleeping around, eventually not coming home, not working or contributing to family, getting DUIs . She gone!

    Thanks, Soph. Very informative but easy to understand. Wish I could afford to be a Patreon supporter, but alas... Thanks to all those who do. Question: Do you ever marvel that all of these complex complexities, interdependent functions of our bodies--let alone the world and the Universe--just came about by undirected, random chance?

    You ever find it hard to watch a video because all you can focus on is how attractive the person in the video is?
