Feeling meh? Do this to get rid of apathy!

Some of us might know that serotonin is involved in mental and emotional suppression and lowering it or increasing the dopamine to serotonin ratio can be very helpful for re-igniting motivation, drive, enjoyment, etc.

Yeah for sure. Sitting in the car in the sun can quickly increase temps and make you feel better. Combined with food and you're good to go.

How much sodium do you average per day, @Hans and do you think there is a recommended minimum you should get everyday?

Wondering how much zinc would be ideal for reducing serotonin as well.

do you have a favorite fruit that you drink/eat in abundance when you dont drink milk,that make you feel the best?it seems like you have days where you eat none to small amounts of meat,do you notice a difference in any chracteristic of your health/performance/behavior/manliness depending on your meat intake?

I drink mostly apple and mango these days as that's what I enjoy most. The oranges here aren't sweet enough yet, but once they are, then I'll add those as well.
I don't really feel worse without meat, but I definitely do feel androgenic from fatty ground beef as well as lots of collagen. When I was doing close to no meat, I was also feeling great. It all depends on what the body wants. For example, if I feel great on muscle meat, but after 2 months I lose taste for it, that benefit might start to go away if I don't listen to my body anymore.

I'm probably totalling around 2 tbsp salt per day, but that's just according to taste atm. I think a minimum of 1 tbsp is a good amount to shoot for.
In terms of zinc, it depends if you're deficient or not, if you eat meat or not and for how long someone has been stressed. If someone has been stressed for a long time they might need more. If someone has been eating a low animal-based diet, then they might also need more. About 1L milk and 200g ground beef will give you 16mg of zinc, which is more like a maintenance dose depending on activity ofc. I get around 40mg daily, and I feel better with that amount compared to 15-16mg.

I'd say LSD /psilocybin is still one of the best things for anhedonia . When I tried microdosing and had gut problems at the same time, it didnt do anything for me though.

Other than that: lisuride, mucuna pruriens, (phenyl)piracetam, phenylalanine, picamilon...
Most of these things can only be used 1 or 2 times per week so it's best to cycle them .

The best thing is probably having a clean gut ,which means you automatically have low serotonin. But that can be pretty hard to achieve .

Great article. Last I checked, tianeptine was getting hard to find in the States, even though it is still technically legal. Who needs laws when you can just lock parties out of the financial system at will.

Thanks for reading! Yeah, it's strange and it has such a wide range of uses.
