I wouldn't say that is desperate. It just comes with the territory. People want to get better. When doctors can't do it, we do it ourselves. I would call that sad, not desperate.

>Does it have something to do with methylfolate? I mean can i get away with a lower methylfolate dosage when adding ACC? The sh*t is expensive..

No. It is not a vitamin. It is an amino acid. It is a precursor to glutathione, which has remarkable processes in the body and brain. None are directly related to mood, but can benefit mood by removing the biochemical insults impacting mood. Expensive? Well for a blind test yes. If it helps, no.

A common dose on bottles is 600mg per day. Doses cited in clinical studies are double or triple that. I personally think it should be started at 300mg, and increase it by 150mg every week until finding a sweet spot. Overkill can happen, not just with this substance, but any. Since you ordered powder, unless you have a scale I don't know how you will measure it. I guess it could be measured by sight, for example starting with 1/8 or 1/16 teaspoon and increasing in similar sizes?

Anyway, this one is for the long haul so no matter what happens in the early days, just keep the eye on the horizon.

Well, the B vitamins. But not just any Bs. We need a mixture of the common ones but also the bio-available ones that bypass any possible genetic or biochemical flaws. That means the active form of B6, active niacin, active B12. The only manufacturer I am aware of that makes those kind of B's is Thorne Research. They all have a wide mix of all the B's, each in different forms, and various versions where one will for example highlight extra B12 while another highlights extra niacin, and so on. I've seen miracles happen with the right Bs, but not as much as I would like to see.

I'll have to think about this one. What to go with nardil? Hmm. Well, I guess it is safe to assume you have plenty of neurotransmitters....with nardil on board there is no shortage, guaranteed. So the problem is something else. But what? Inflammation? Stealth infection? Toxins? What kind? NAC should do a decent job of making a dent in any of those but I'll have to ponder this topic some more.
