“Just a medical note: beta blockers DON’T remove emotion,” the registered nurse wrote via Threads Tuesday night after part three of the reunion aired on Bravo.
“They work by blocking adrenaline from binding to beta receptors in your heart, blood vessels, and muscles (the receptors responsible for the physical symptoms of anxiety like increased heart rate, raised blood pressure, and trembling),” she continued.
“The EMOTIONAL EXPERIENCE remains, but the physical stress response can’t fully activate. It’s like putting your “fight or flight” symptoms on DND…. enough with the beta blocker [expletive].”

The beta blocker discussion came during the reunion after host Andy Cohen questioned 31-year-old Wilson’s subdued demeanor.
“No offense, are you on like, a bunch of beta blockers or what? I’m just curious what’s going on,” Cohen asked.
Wilson replied: “I took a beta blocker. I don’t know if that’s why I’m not sobbing in this moment. This matters to me.”
Wilson and his current girlfriend, Amanda Batula, 34, have come under fire in months after revealing they were in a relationship after keeping it secret from their friends and castmates.
Batula was previously married to Summer House star Kyle Cooke. The pair were together for a total of 10 years. Wilson previously dated Miller on the series.
