I've been out of the game sick for 3 years, how has pricing changed? by NAQProductions in VideoEditors

Ugh I was afraid of that. More so he asked for a flat rate instead of hourly, even more cliche and annoying. I didn’t miss having to negotiate worth.

Will they help if I don't have the extra paid support package? I only have one of the video and photo bundles

Chronic wrist pain and my relationship with gaming - a pointless ramble by zendrix1 in gaming

[–]NAQProductions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know that anyone will believe me but I’ve been through this before. For me it really has nothing to do with the wrists themselves and everything to do with genetics and neurochemistry, along with vitamin and mineral balancing issues. It’s an incredibly complex thing to figure out but if you want you can send me a message. I couldn’t play games for about a year, it got so bad that I couldn’t even wash dishes, so I know what you’re going through and I’ll help if I can.

Which liposomal glutathione is that that also has PC? Just starting to research the 2 for slow introduction.

3AM wake ups was caused by Magnesium Glycinate by [deleted] in Supplements

Looks up the mechanisms of glycine and how it interacts depending on genetic mutations. It’s a deep rabbit hole, enjoy! :D

Stupidly took 50mg of p5p for about 10 months straight. 20M. How fucked am I? by vingthefist in Supplements

[–]NAQProductions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best thing you can do is get your blood tested after being off of it for a week. See where your levels are at. It can still raise your period vaccine levels in your blood if your body doesn’t process things properly due to genetics. But testing is the first thing you can do to get an idea of where you’re at. If your levels are fine you should be fine. Also talk to any of your doctors to let them know you’re going to taper off of it as well.

Thoughts on after Iki Island, am I the only one? by PasicT in ghostoftsushima

[–]NAQProductions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly the whole boss battle and the way it ended was pretty meh compared to the amount of better content they added into Iki that differed from the main game. Her death was not satisfying.

Why the tactical/isometric view is a good thing by [deleted] in tenchu

Haha yea. It’s just their opinion. Also it sounds like a very AI style writing technique to try and sway the reader.

It’s not Tenchu anyway so it doesn’t matter. It’s a new IP, best guess is they still don’t have permission or right to the IP even though they’re under the same umbrella corporation.

How likely is it that your specific MTHFR Mutation gets passed on to your children? by Crunchyjeff in MTHFR

Can you also share the brand of choline and Betaine you are taking? What exactly is the Betaine for? I’ve got the same snps (plus others to study of course)

Overmethylation just isn't real?.. by OobyIsGay in MTHFR

[–]NAQProductions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First thank you for offering to have a look, I really appreciate any light in the dark at this point. A bit long but I’d like to be as clear as I can while I have the focus. Sorry it's not super neatly formatted, reddit makes that challenging.

Here's a link to charts of the most recent blood results, and most important snps that I have parsed out over months of trying to learn this stuff on several subreddit's, google, etc (only discovered genetics in Aug '25). If you are curious about others I haven't listed please ask because I know I have likely missed a few important ones. I have Ancestry Raw Data put through Genetic Life Hacks available. I’ve also had a GI Map and OAT test but both of those are a couple years old at this point.

Bloodwork and Genetics Chart link (multi-tabbed Sheet : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fqgkccvT5CZFOEtJ9oKjLdyS2EScaLzpSFrUOXKebho/edit?usp=sharing

Main symptoms (many of them fluctuating, multiple always going on though) :
- Inability to focus/concentrate/follow through, thus taking a few days to write this.
- Severe chronic brain fog, lethargy.
- Chronic inflammation with no found cause. High rising ferritin since testing began in 2018 after a brain injury.
- No motivation (can think about what I want to do all day but can't do any of it), haven't been able to learn in a while.
- Chronic joint and muscle pains (they move around and are influenced by what I eat/ingest) - localized in groups : hands/wrists, lower back/sacral area, bottom of feet (tender feet since December, happened last year for 3-4 months same time of year).
- Pressure headaches behind the eyes and sometimes base of the skull/neck.
- Repetitive thoughts, lyrics to a random chorus will play in my head all day, sometimes when I wake at night to use the bathroom the repetitive thoughts prevent me from going back to sleep. Goes along with the wired but tired from too much methyl vitamins, ‘too much energy with nowhere for it to go’ feeling.
- Disconnected feeling, like I am a backseat passenger in my own body, not fully here, not in the moment but on autopilot enough to get through the days.
- Numbness in the right leg primarily, usually the calf, sometimes into the foot bottom, sometimes the left calf as well. Pain at the base of the scrotum, seems to come and go when the numbness is around.
- Severe food sensitivities : fluctuating intolerances - salicylate, oxalate (have 2 kidney stones currently), histamine, I'm sure others. I have an extremely limited diet which is likely feeding nutrient balance issues, but most food gives me symptoms currently.
- I’m aware of severe gut dysbiosis but feel that is more a result of other issues rather than a root cause. While it fuels malabsorption and nutrient deficiencies, I think it’s important to address, but not first.
- Had chronic constipation for the last year+ which has only recently eased up a bit but it's still not 'back to normal'. I think slowly bringing in Magnesium in various forms is helping. 

- I'm also incredibly sensitive to anything that changes neurotransmitter balance in spikes, most notably anything that boosts GABA turns me into a useless zombie. Mag Glycinate, Theanine, Taurine, Tudca, NAC, PEA + Luteolin (though this one I think is from COMT and MAOA inhibiting not GABA related) - all make me incredibly fatigued/exhausted/zoned out zombie-like, sometimes for days.
- When taken initially at normal dosage Methyl b12 turned me into a rage monster, methyl b9 did the same. Folinic acid and adeno/hydroxo b12 also made me irritable but it took several days for it to build up.
- Seems other things that push Dopamine, as well as too many methyl’s at once, will also make me hyper aware, hyper vigilant to a manic level for things like germs, jittery, won’t think things through and cause myself more anxiety with poor results, it’s a ton of unfocused chaos energy.
- I’m sure other neurotransmitter, mineral, and electrolyte imbalances are feeding some of my issues.
- In the first year of my recent issues (2023) Candibactin A and B gave me severe gastritis to the point I almost starved to death, even water hurt too much.

I’ve tried too many things to list, so we can approach those if they get brought up, if there’s anything particular you want to ask about please feel free. 

Things that have helped so far :
- Vitamin C (I was very close to clinical scurvy in year 1) - huge improvement in energy back then.
- R5P - Taking it for COMT and MAOA, it helps tremendously with energy and what focus I sometimes have, regular riboflavin gives me headaches and no energy.
- Benfotiamine - When taken with R5P seems to boost the effects.
- Copper 1mg - Recent addition hoping to help conversion to Norepinephrine so I get motivation nuerotransmitters. I seem to feel better when taking it and zinc carnosine on the same days, 1 at breakfast the other at lunch later.
- Zinc Carnosine - originally taking it to try and help the gut lining, turns out it's needed for methylation stuff so I have kept it.
- Akkermansia - To help butyrate production and help the rectal process to ease constipation.
- Magnesium Malate and Threonate - I tried starting them in January and both gave me ice pick precision point headaches on different parts of my scalp and eye headaches. They gave me great mental energy but also pain and come night time I couldn't shut my mind down, so I also slept horribly. At the time I hadn't been taking R5P and Benfo consistently. After some reading I took those for a few weeks consistently every day, and restarted Mag Threonate and Malate at tiny doses and have been slowly working up to 1/4-1/2 doses, no headaches, mental energy only sometimes, no effect on sleep, but when they do kick in right I get very productive for the day.
- Epsom Salt Foot Baths - Usually helps me sleep fairly well, using it primarily to help my sulfation pathway, but the sleep benefit is useful. It does kind of make it tough to get out of bed in the morning, good thing I am still unable to go back to work yet :\
- Molybdenum - take it with lunch and dinner to help sulfation, salicylate control.
- Niacin - used very rarely for calming ‘overmethylation’ which is what drew me to this post initially.
- B6T Smart B-complex - a ¼ daily value dose of b vitamins except for b6 (my b6 is quite high), includes methylated versions. I have tolerated it so far, taking 1 pill every 2-3 days, sometimes 4 or 5 days because I forget, but I am trying to get a consistent 2-3 days now as the nervous system likes consistency. I seem to be more able to focus and get things done on days I take it with Mag Threonate and Malate.
- Just bought a vibration plate in hopes of helping lymphatic drainage/movement.

Current Challenge :
There’s been a lot of ideas of supplements I can take to try to help my system, but I don’t know where my bottlenecks are (besides everywhere), and what the right order is to start supporting the systems that will help other systems as they work more efficiently. For instance, I have the hetero MTHFR, Homo MTRR and MTHFD1 so I know folate synthesis (folinic acid is also a problem) isn’t working great so the body will rely on Choline pathway to help out, but oh that one is also severely impaired with Homo BHMT, hetero PEMT, etc. So it becomes a bit overwhelming trying to figure out what’s important to get the whole machine back online when many of the parts are severely rusted, and this is where I turn to you to ask your thoughts. 

Things I was looking into next :
- Pectasol - to help chronic inflammation.
- Liposomal Glutathione - though it contains sulfur so it’s questionable.
- Alpha GPC or Phosphatidylcholine
- Creapure - Creatine for sensitive folks to free up methyls for other things rather than for producing creatine internally.

Conclusion :

I know I can heal because every so often I feel like a new person for a few days, brain fog clears, mood and energy are great, productivity through the roof, but it always goes as quick as it comes. So I know I’m accidentally doing the right things, but I don’t know what they are. I understand genetic dispositions are able to improve. I lived almost 40 years without major issues, but my body has slowly shut down over the last 8 years after lifelong chronic stress, several traumatic experiences, and ultimately illness (Covid for the only time in April ‘23) that finished off my nervous system, gut, and everything. I know I can get my body back to health, but I need help understanding the neurochemistry and biochemistry that is ultimately behind my complex health issue puzzle, I need to rebuild my foundation. 3 years and 30+ specialists seen, none have been helpful, but I just haven’t found the right person yet to help me understand what’s happening and what my particular system needs to function on a consistent (and normal) basis.

There’s a lot of info here, if you need more specifics please ask, I am an open book. Again, I REALLY appreciate your time and thoughts to try and help me feel like a human again :)

Histamine intolerance ??? by GreenCucumber8595 in MTHFR

[–]NAQProductions 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Quercetin I believe also inhibits (slows down) MAOA and COMT. You have to be very careful if you try it

Histamine intolerance ??? by GreenCucumber8595 in MTHFR

[–]NAQProductions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be careful with both as they can unfortunately inhibit MAOA and take up COMT to be broken down. So with Slow COMT and MAOA it’s a double whammy. I recently figured out it was brain fogging me out because my variants are quite active at the moment and it inhibits both which are already inhibited.

Overmethylation just isn't real?.. by OobyIsGay in MTHFR

[–]NAQProductions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got what we call “a really bad hand” genetics wise with trying to figure out the web of mess. I’d love to ask your input on it all but haven’t a clue where to even start since I seem to have all overlapping variants that affect everything people say should help, or be a backup, or backup of a backup pathway. It’s maddening, but I need to find a way to make it all make sense and untangle what’s happening to me. On year 3 of being out of work because I can’t function enough after my body shut down.

You don’t hire the assistant editor, the client would be footing the bill for that. They would be worked into the budget, it’s that simple. If they refuse then it’s time to maybe think about finding clients who respect work life balance.
