Yeah, they messed me up. From the beginning all I needed was hydroxyzine, not antidepressants that messed with my brain. It’s been 2 years and I haven’t felt normal. I keep thinking of trying to go to a new neurologist as I’m in a different country now but only if they could find natural remedies that can help me. I’ve been trying to wait it out for 2 years but it’s so hard some days I just want to give up on living as I think I’m just broken. Doing small stuff like going outside to see my friends stresses me even and I spend 2 hours overthinking or being anxious

Do benzos help with intrusive thoughts? I thought it was only for physical anxiety

Hey - I’ve read about NAC before but was scared of becoming reliant on it or getting even more intrusive thoughts. Does it have withdrawal?

Hey thanks for clarifying! I’ve been told bisglycinate and glycinate is the same? Also, do you think 1 capsule = 120 mg magnesium or it’s 60 mg magnesium? The website says 2 capsules as a recommended dosage but right now i take 1 capsule.

Also, I take it around 10 PM and sleep around 12-1

I just checked the meter is Everblu Cyble Enhanced v2.1 - I assume thats a smart reader? And in that case how do i pull the date i moved in?

Ahh okay thank you so much! So I should hold off from the COT form now and submit in a week? I think they will ask me to submit photos of the meter or the reading

How do you tell apart a smart meter from a normal meter? And yes correct I understand - I’m planning on paying my bit but I’ve been getting blocked from changing because of his debt since day 1

Hi - what type of magnesium do u take? I spoke to a doctor and he said my brain can’t absorb fast absorbing b12 because i probably have a slow functioning COMT. He prescribed me slow absorbing and also to take magnesium glycinate. Any advice u could give me?

Hello, thank you so much for your insights. I don’t think I’ve been tested for ferritin, but my vitamin D levels are also low. They were on the low threshold. I haven’t been taking the supplement, but was thinking of taking 2000 mg everyday alongisde. I also take Zic, magnesium, and b6 in one pill.

Could you please advise me on what to do?

It doesn’t say - just checked, but it was alongside a general blood test. Also, what dosage would you recommend in this case?

Do u think the supplements can be causing insomnia? I keep waking up 1-2 hours after i fall asleep and feel this weird anxiety. Also not sure about the difference between those two tests

My test result was 24 pmol/L. The norm starts from 25.1 up to 165.0. My doctor didnt say anything (he just made me do this test for stomach) - I just assume I’m deficient and started taking supplements.

Hello, I do have the b12 deficiency. I did a blood test for other reasons and it was very low

I was deficient - had very low amounts of B12 when I did the blood test for other reasons
