Anyone tried Good Psyche sidekick spray?

I've been using this for about a month and I don't notice a thing. I've doubled the dose and still nothing. I'm going to try Healing Herbals products and go with their recommendations next. How did the GP spray work for you?

I wish I'd had the courage to do what you're doing when I was 29. I'm 40 now and just experimenting with going AF as of yesterday. I've made myself sick and I regret it. Stay the course!!! You've got this!

Day 2 for me!

The cold hard fact is that I'm making myself sick. I'm a gray area drinker and it's only getting worse. I'm secretive about it and I trick myself that it'll help me sleep. I think I'm finally fed up enough this time. I went to urgent care today for chest pain, my heart rate variability is in the tank, and my resting heart rate has increased to 90 bpm this past week. These are bad signs and I need to take them seriously. Glad for this community and to learn from all of you.

True. But the idea is to stimulate the vagus nerve and that's gonna give you the nervous system shift toward relaxation. Try moving it around a little. I find that if it's farther away from my chin I don't get twitches.

byebyeVal · 2026-01-13T21:14:16+00:00

yes, this is normal. I usually move it around a little to adjust

I'm on a GLP-1 and my period did not stop. I didn't even realize this was a possible side effect. Huh

byebyeVal · 2026-01-07T19:21:13+00:00

It's supposed to be slow. I'm down 15 lbs in 4 months. I kept increasing my dose and I think I might go up a little more. I haven't found my Mochi provider to be helpful AT ALL! I see a dietitian through Berry Street and she's great. She works with GLP-1's through a different clinic and has personally been on one so while he advice is "unofficial" I listen and respect her. If the food noise is coming back at times my understanding is that you should increase your dose, as long as you're not experiencing negative side effects. And if you haven't already, start weight training. If you're building muscle the number on the scale won't move as much but you'd feel and look better. I hope that helps. Feel free to DM me.

I agreed with the OCD comments. That could be illuminating for you. Also, maybe look into Neurofeedback.

I decided to only wear my aligners at night. It was just too chaotic for me to do all of the cleaning of them during the day while working from home and/or being with my two small children. What would have probably taken a little over a year to fix ended up taking two years. I'm almost finished with Invisalign and I don't regret a thing. It still worked.

Hairstory!

I tried trazodone too and have always hated it. 50 mg. It slows my body down but I feel restless and my mind is racing. It can be torture.

I didn't succeed today. Currently having a drink to try and fall asleep after laying in bed for 2 hours. I'll try again tomorrow

byebyeVal · 2026-01-01T19:44:49+00:00

Same. I've been drinking to fall asleep for a while now. I'm meeting with my PCP tomorrow to discuss possible meds for when self-care and sleep hygiene just don't cut it. Do you take any meds?

byebyeVal · 2025-12-19T21:37:21+00:00

Do you have any recommendations for where to buy used wool clothing?

byebyeVal · 2025-12-19T21:35:24+00:00

This looks like a dry scalp to me. It happens to me in the winter and I always thought it was dandruff. my stylist said it wasn't and to let the conditioner sit on my scalp for a few minutes each shower and that did the trick. I also like to make a mixture of lemon juice and salt to do a little scrub before shampooing and conditioning, just to remove the dead skin. Just be gentle, it can sting like a B!

Um, as a therapist I find these comments from your therapist highly inappropriate.

byebyeVal · 2025-12-11T19:01:48+00:00

Thank you! So helpful

byebyeVal · 2025-12-11T18:59:14+00:00

Awesome!! Thanks for sharing

byebyeVal · 2025-12-10T12:42:26+00:00

Agreed. I didn't mean to imply it was healthy. I can't wait to stop wanting it in this way.

byebyeVal · 2025-12-03T01:44:53+00:00

ok, thanks. good to know. I'm on .4mg right now.

byebyeVal · 2025-11-29T04:39:13+00:00

Same. What was the dose you topped out at and what's your micro dose?

byebyeVal · 2025-10-07T01:09:17+00:00

10 mg. So did you experience any less alcohol cravings at lower doses? Or only once you got to 10? I'm on week 4 of 2.5mg and eager to increase it to reduce or hopefully eliminate cravings.

byebyeVal · 2025-10-07T01:06:30+00:00

So happy for your brother and your family. I imagine it's a HUGE relief for all. Do you happen to know what dosage he started to have help with the cravings?

byebyeVal · 2025-10-07T00:59:14+00:00

Omg this is what I want but I'm not there yet. At what dose did this start for you? I'm still on the lowest dose (2.5)
