What people actually say

“Quitting alcohol completely ... the most obvious aspect was for my sleep hygiene.”

“Oh, and I gave up alcohol, almost completely, that helped a lot too.”

“Both help with energy/focus, especially the cold. I hated cold showers for a solid 6 months, but persisted, and now truly enjoy.”

“I started having a resurgence of certain symptoms I'd kicked 6 months ago by introducing glutathione- started feeling general unwell again”

“The Wim Hof method did a world of good for me and my anxiety.”

“One thing I’ve really been into is the Wim Hof method which incorporates breathing, meditation, and cold showers ... This has been a game changer for me.”

“I was able to address my social anxiety and depression by figuring out my body doesn't produce it's on methyl folate, so a change in my diet was life changing.”

“I found that with long term use it increased my hypomania and made me too energetic and jittery.”

“I started taking methyl b12 and folate, which helped with some stomach and bowel problems.”

“Methyl folate also helped lift brain fog since I have the MTHFR defect.”

“My silver bullet for sleep is GHB (2.5ml) + a calcium channel blocker like gabapentin (150mg) or pregabalin (50-75mg)”

“GHB is god tier for sleep though. I doubt there's an actual better drug out there for sleep than GHB.”

“GHB, for instance, makes me feel a little off for a few days after.”

“I've used it daily (evenings only) for 4-5 years now, with surprisingly few side effects and no withdrawals when I go on holiday.”

“After consistently taking this stimulant for a week or so, I have a lot more energy, I'm sleeping better and I just generally am in a better mood.”

“Siberian Ginseng (Eleuthero Root) is another supplement I took for along time. In lower doses it seems to be good at reducing anxiety without any sedation.”

“I'm a big proponent of siberian ginseng, Eleutherococcus senticosus. Done well for my dad who works 85 a week in management.”

“It certainly has helped me, no end. It's helped with the host of sleep problems and waking in the night”

“200 mg seems to be the perfect amount for me and has a shorter half life than caffeine with not noticeable crash.”

“Paraxanthine, one of the metabolites of caffeine, has a lot of the positive qualities of caffeine and fewer of the side effects. I'm a month into experimenting with it and could see it replacing caffeine for me.”

“I've taken paraxanthine for over a year now and definitely recommend it. Doesn't affect sleep as much and results in fewer jitters, palpitations, and feelings of anxiety”

“I enjoy paraxanthine, as a metabolite of caffeine it is still a stimulant but the half life is much shorter... It seems to be a less anxious energy”

“I'd suggest trying CalmAid (silexan) - it has evidence for anxiety, it's non-sedating, works within ~15 minutes and doesn't have the risk of the common alternatives.”

“And they've been utterly amazing. I can think clearly now. I didn't even realize how much anxiety was plaguing me.”

“I'd drop the SJW and go with CalmAid (Silexan) since it actually has specific evidence for anxiety and does not interact with at least one type of oral contraceptive pill.”

“If you're looking for something else to try for anxiety, I'd recommend CalmAid...Works within 15 minutes...Most people dose once per day as needed.”

“significantly calming without inducing much if any lethargy. Futhermore, the subjective effects I personally experience, include a very nice mood boost and I feel like I can focus better after taking it.”

“Baikal skullcap works wonders for me, 250-500mg per day and it really does its job well”

“My ultimate stack for anxiety is lemon balm,baikal skull cap,Ksm66 ,Isoliquitergenin and pregnenolone”

“I'd use Baikal for that, my verbal fluency and short term memory usage is insane with it.”

“Literally 80% of my anxiety and depression went away when I stopped having all allergens (in my case wheat, soy, dairy).”

“I've tried removing gluten and milk (helped temporarily)”

“My brain fog didn't completely go away until I cut out wheat, potatos and tomatos.”

“I cut out all added Sugars, processed/preserved foods, pork, & fried foods. I found eliminating grains helped a bunch.”

“Every time I eat dark chocolate, I get loads of energy, my brain feels clearer, I feel more sociable and it's almost a kind of giddy feeling, just warm and lifts my mood so well it's incredible.”
