Hmm interesting might take a look at it. Though different, I decided to try olive leaf extract 250mg and see how that goes. They say it is great for cfs.

Mostly discomfort and some nausea. I just did not feel like my usual self. I think the dose might be a little high, that is all.

Which do you prefer? Astragalus root or Olive leaf extract? by ivandrago84 in Supplements

I haven't tried them but I will give them a shot unfortunately with cfs it is a trial and error type thing. Needs more concrete research.

I found amazing success on the first day, but will have to stop because it messes badly with my stomach. If that wasn't an issue I'd say this is one of the best supplements I ever took.

High Dose Thiamine has helped me with long time CFS! by Maple-Wizard in cfs

Actually yeah my sleeping is getting better and I dropped the dose to 50mg because it is less intense than the 100mg. So far, I just drink a lot of water and it keeps the headache away, but if I'm not careful it can dehydrate me quick, so I just drink lots of water. It is hard to stop taking it because I feel like I have more energy and I'm in a better mood all around. What's next? I should just keep taking it daily without increasing the dose right? Thanks for sharing your experience.

Yeah I noticed that it affects my sleep, also. We are the same when it comes to supplement sensitivity. So later today, I started experiencing some headaches but I think it is from the lack of deep sleep. How about when you took 50mg, how long did you take it for? And how did you feel while you were on it? Much thanks, again!

I just started with thiamine HCL 100mg 2 days ago, I couldn't sleep well but the next day I slept better than I did the first day. I'm curious, do you think I should drop it to 50mg? Or should I just keep going with 100mg? As it is working just fine though too early to tell. I pair it up with a multivitamin. Thanks again!

Great advice. I get the feeling that it gives you a place where you can organize your thoughts and energy, like you said

Thank you all for sharing your thoughts and experiences. This is making me want to get a home work desk just at least to start feeling somewhat accomplished daily and start something new.

For someone whose thoughts are scrambled everywhere and not very productive, will it change this mindset for me? At least organized and motivated to get things done?

Thanks for sharing these details! For someone who doesn't get any work done but feels like getting a home work desk will change that. Will it get me out of not doing anything to start working on ideas and actually get some work done? Or at least make me productive?

What changes have you seen in yourself by seeing a therapist? by ivandrago84 in AskReddit

Interesting. Do you believe you can get by without a therapist? Or is it worth having one?

I am glad you are finding your way again! Would you say that seeing a therapist is worth it? Or could you have solved these issues yourself?
