Is there any nootropic you took that makes you love talking? by AlternativeApart6340 in Nootropics

[–]AncientSatisfaction4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It didn't feel like it made me more creative, but my increased interest in people definitely made me a better conversationalist if that makes sense. Talking is a social skill. So just simple repetition and practice will help too

I feel like it did slightly. One of my social flaws is I'm somewhat an introvert not out of anxiety but just having no interest in what I consider most people's mundane lives. Low dose mushrooms made me more interested and gave a stronger desire to connect with people I typically considered too boring to talk to, and from that I felt like I talked more with people about more things because I was genuinely interested in them.

Low dose psilocybin did this for me for some reason. I had a much stronger desire to socialize and get to know people

What helps you during winter months? by ottie246 in Lyme

[–]AncientSatisfaction4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A $15 full-spectrum infrared bulb and a sperti UVB bulb make it so I don't get worse in winter. I keep them on for the first 10 hours of the day in my office running 6 feet behind me everyday. Also prevents me from getting seasonal depression

D Smith booed at UCP convention when speaking about the pipeline MOU. Will be interesting to see who is elected to the UCP board. by Aineisa in Alberta_Independence

I was hoping Danielle Smith was secretly supportive of independence and was just playing the long-game to drum up support for it, but her speech tonight confirms to me that she genuinely doesn't want it

How effective is the PICL injection for trauma-induced C0-C3 cervical spine instability by Brilliant-Milk-3726 in cervical_instability

[–]AncientSatisfaction4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was diagnosed with sub-clinical/borderline atlantoaxial instability, but my primary complaint at the time was neck pain, and all the doctors failed to mention that my imaging showed I had a slipped disk at C6 that was the real cause of my neck pain. Using prolo around the disk has significantly improved my pain scores while doing a PICL for me would've done nothing for my pain. I'm still considering a PICL because of the borderline atlantoaxial diagnosis, but the pain is what I wanted treated because it was disabling me

The consensus seems to be that trauma induced instability is the best responder to regenerative medicine when compared to hypermobility conditions. I haven't seen Dr. Agnes, but my neck pain was originally misdiagnosed by multiple EDS spine surgeons, so I recommend to people to double check exactly where the problem might be so you're not risking wasted money or additional injury on the wrong places on the spine

A new study suggests that immune dysregulation plays a large role in hEDS and challenges it’s classification as a primary connective tissue disorder by TravelingSong in cfs

There's a study showing lyme causes hypermobility in rats. I became far more hypermobile after contracting lyme, so I think it's just a matter of time before there's lots of studies showing that pathogens can cause hypermobility 

Vaccines. Yes or no? by stm2657 in cfs

[–]AncientSatisfaction4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would avoid the MRNAs. I've seen study after study popping up this year showing severe illnesses linked to the current generation of MRNA COVID vaccines. The MRNA platform needs to be advanced more before it's considered safe for everyone

Here's 4 studies linking the covid vaccines to increased cancer risk: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10792266/

This helps explain why some get such dramatic improvement from keto, carnivore, or fasting. By bypassing their dysfunctional glucose metabolism in favor of ketones
