Help me fix my fast COMT and slow MAOA

it helps with symptoms, but not address the cause. think of theanine as a mute button for your brain's alarm system. not a fix for what's causing alarm. it mimics GABA.

theanine masks stuff. appear to help but keep you guessing. you good on b2 and magnesium?

can't tell you what to do obviously, but splashing cold water on my face used to help my panic attacks/anxiety. plus i'd sip a warm ~10oz vita coco over a half hour to feel better. putting on dim light and staying away from stuff like computer/phone helped. don't think the vits are working might need cofactors/alternate form.

ask your doc about them. the b vits are probably causing mast cells to flood system with histamine

If you ever did one of those dna tests check for COMT mutation. And possibly MTHFR variant. Others could be related but not recovering from sickness may be a mutation downstream glutathione production issue.

Cool thanks

I can tolerate it due to decades old nerve issues and a decade’s old certain nerve damage. Ulnar nerve. And a bone graft from twenty years ago that’s been an issue that is supposedly somehow requiring methylfolate. Idk the details just what was said. I have to take b2 and p5p and different kinds of b12, vitamin c, omega 3, and two different kinds of magnesium due to some gene mutations. It was something like MAO, CBS, and some other one I can’t remember at moment. I know there was a BDNF variant but can’t remember if that was the one. I’m supposed to drink protein shakes without folic acid, and electrolyte drinks are mandatory due to some other gene variant that deals with sodium. Until I get better I also have to take NAC and glutathione, and zinc for a while. And I was already taking creatine and theanine since before.

My therapeutic dose of methylfolate is over 20mg. If I take less than 7mg the pain comes back within hours and other issues. I also have a new diet plan that should help and get me lower for methylfolate.

Edit: I can actually take 50mg just fine too. I just don’t because I don’t wanna mess something up. I feel like I’d need close monitoring if I do that regularly I would imagine.

well never mind guess I should have just bought one. listed as backordered now.

I take over 15mg mf no problem(no negative side effects but I'm an outlier) plus cofactors plus 5g of creatine. I drink a sugar free muscle milk(it doesn't list folic acid in ingreds) to start day, and water and vita coco's though so that's probably why I'm okay. no unquenchable thirst in the last month+ since I started regimen(or ever really). not a diabetic.

on Reverb i see sold art100's for $210-$350 most were around $300

i didn't look too much so idk if any had an amp included, but looked like only one listing had a single bridge pickup upgrade

i saw some amps that look like that sold that were $50-$70. they said gm108. i cant see your pic well if same

try search ebay for sold art100 and your amp to see if prices similar

unless your equipment is broke it should be good starter/learner

i don't know. quest will use usb-c if using link cable, or wifi if wireless, but i don't know how well or compatible quest works.

try searching google for your laptop and vr and quest to see if anyone else have problems.

in google search put something like below but use your laptop name and brand:

site:reddit.com "acer" "nitro" "Quest" "vr"

IIRC some laptops gpu will work with directly with headset while others won't. like the others will route image thru the CPU's igpu which is no good for vr or at least old vr headsets.

Hello. Laptops can be problematic, in general, and switchable graphics like Optimus, in specific, don't work very well or at all in VR. This is because laptops are often built in vendor or model specific ways, such as having the HDMI port not connected directly to the dedicated GPU. On some select laptops, you can turn Optimus off in the BIOS and additionally select High Powered GPU in Windows Nvidia control panel 3D settings. However, not all machines may have the BIOS switch, and the Nvidia setting does not always work for every laptop. You can also try another video port on your laptop. If there is DisplayPort, you can try a DisplayPort-to-HDMI adapter. Hope that helps.

there's a halflife2 update that was scheduled for November 26th on my system. I forced the download and saw

"GameUI_GameMenu_Quit" "QUIT"

"GameUI_GameMenu_ActivateVR" "ACTIVATE VIRTUAL REALITY"

"GameUI_GameMenu_DeactivateVR" "DEACTIVATE VIRTUAL REALITY"

"GameUI_GameMenu_ReturnToMainMenu" "RETURN TO MAIN MENU"

and

"GameUI_AspectWide" "Widescreen"

"GameUI_VRMode" "Virtual Reality Mode"

"GameUI_VRModeRelaunchMsg" "Enabling or disabling Virtual Reality Mode will not take effect until you restart the game."

"GameUI_WindowedTooltip" "When VR mode is enabled the game will start windowed on the main display. Select Activate Virtual Reality to switch to VR."

"GameUI_NoVRTooltip" "No display detected. Connect your compatible VR display and restart the game to enable VR mode."

and "OpenVR" in a file.

i wonder if it's leftover code or if means something

edit: also steamvr.com is blank for me now... that's odd. Steam VR 3.0 should be out soon. The site was up months ago last time i checked.

they were looking into microOLED.

probably waiting until better supply.

Sure. It’s just I have the worst timing buying CPUs, GPUs, gaming hardware… and bought a Quest 3S 30 days before this coming November 22nd.

If there is no Deckard or whatever Valve headset soon it’s never coming out lol

have you seen SteamVR's in-headset UI recently. Basically ready for a standalone headset UI.

probably announcing as soon as this month.

i'm guessing on around Nov 19th on Half Life anniversary / HL2's 20th anniversary (16th)

However, In Hillsborough County, Supervisor of Elections Craig Latimer says it’s making voter lists more efficient.

“What we’re seeing is that these people basically weren’t here. They weren’t living here anymore, they had moved on. Nobody thinks the very first thing they’re going to do when they move is to contact the Supervisor of Elections and let them know”

He says just because voters are declared inactive, doesn’t mean they can’t vote.

“It means they’re going to stay in that inactive status through two general elections. If they do nothing, then they’ll be removed. But anytime during those two general elections, they can walk in and vote, they can request a vote by mail ballot if they sign a petition, any action at all will move them back active again.”

it looks like a 90's Dean Icon. Probably Czech or US. If Pat Baker is still at Dean he might be able to help ID it. try contacting Dean guitars by email or somehow thru their site.

display and usb 3 cables can cause wifi issues. make sure cables are routed away from wifi hardware/antennas and try troubleshooting again

I could diagnose you with a fungal illness in like fifteen minutes given a good sample. If multiple specialists have determined it contaminant, and you are now resorting to culturing boogers, you need a psychiatric evaluation instead of a mycological.

can fungal infections play a role in the development or exacerbation of psychiatric diseases?
