I'm dissapointed that niacinamide is not working anymore
I'm going to try greatly increasing the amount I exercise because I have become a couch potato. I used to play lots of sports before getting more into video games and becoming depressed and inactive. I have seen studies showing exercise works better than antidepressants maybe by increasing heart rate, dopamine, improving insulin sensitivity etc... That's the last idea I have for myself except maybe buying a blue light lamp for seasonal affective disorder though I don't think that's Peat approved...
I was more active on the days I felt good so maybe that's it.
Sorry to hear it stopped working for you. I hope you figure it for yourself and please keep us posted. Btw. I have blue lamp 10.000 lux for SAD but it doesn't do much for me, just my experience. I prefer red light. I considered whether it's just me being ungrateful, having negative thoughts, but I have physical symptoms as well and I think for me it's hormonal, perimenapause. I think I'm going to seek help now. Someone mentioned Lita Lee on here, so I'm considering her. Does anyone have any other suggestions? I'm sick of hearing people telling me it's all in my head.I'm dissapointed that niacinamide is not working anymore

Sounds like you have it down. What does your daily diet look like?I fixed my depression mainly with pregnenlone and caffiene. Also getting enough fat solubles mostly through food but also with some supplements. Methylene blue helps me feel euphoric, so does small doses of dhea. bag breathing for c02 in front of a bright 250w red bulb also helps me to feel in control and ready to make th emost out of life. I was deeply struggling with depression before Peat, as I came out of post-finasteride. The other thing tha tmakes a huge difference is 5a-dhp or androsterone, they both have different feelings but both just totally reverse any depressive thoughts and feels. Aspirin also makes me feel really good.
all of these supplements can certainly help set the stage, but it is still up to you to play the part and live a stimulating, meaningful life. Important not to overlook that part, its easier said than done and can take practice. Talk to new people, find a new passion, search for the natural beauty in everything. The world is an absolute marvel and it yearns to be appreciated, doing so will lead reciprocating returns.
What type of environment do you live in? If you can afford to do it, get at least 8 hours of sunlight a day (without sunglasses). Sunlight is far more effective than any bright light therapy. It's obviously very hard to get so much sunshine though as we all have jobs, lives, and perhaps cold weather. But sunshine is the one consistent way of curing depression in my experience.Sorry to hear it stopped working for you. I hope you figure it for yourself and please keep us posted. Btw.

I live in Europe, 8 hours of sunshine would be great, but impossible. I do find winters very depressing, my health mental state and health suffers. I am trying to force myself to go out every day for a walk, cold or not, but it doesn't seem to be enough.What type of environment do you live in?

I'm doing a very similar stack of things. I wasn't depressed but I was catabolic with anxiety and with too much vulnerability. These dietary, supplements and lifestyle shifts have changed that around considerably. But I think I would still have the anxiety without aikido. It still remains the most important piece for me. I love the physical connection.I fixed my depression mainly with pregnenlone and caffiene. Also getting enough fat solubles mostly through food but also with some supplements.

I do admin for my husband from home so I do keep the SAD light on because red light (also purchased from redlightman) is too loud for my liking. However if the red light should make a bigger difference then I might try to push through the noise and keep it on all day. Also I thought the device needs to be in a very close proximity, so just keeping it on my desk switched on is sufficient? I guess the red light would have to shine on me directly? Mine is sitting on its back shining upwards if I don't hold it up to a body part.What do you do for a living?
I have an infrared light desk lamp (from redlightman) at my desk at the office. Works great for me, Im rarely outside at all this winter.
I use infrared because red light made coworkers bit uncomfortable.
Interesting; I really don't like higher dose MB. 100 mcg seems enough for me, but the research urges my autism to push higher.Just one drop of oxidal in the morning... I tried a couple drops and felt a bit artificial and then a few hours later had gnarly anxiety, almost had a panic attack. Im not positive if the anxiety was related to the MB tbh, I had taken a lot of supps that day and had copious coffees.
Now it feels nice, I think it helps me stay in a positive mood and contributes to that Peaty euphoria.

@Pet Peeve would lysine's serotonin lowering effects have had anything to do with your experience?I'm very sensitive to glutamate in foods, like MSG, it put's me in a horrible state. I haven't taken any l-lysine for a long while and tried some after reading about all the benefits on this board. I got a glutamate reaction from it and searched the net and found this link which I posted in another thread: The essential amino acid lysine acts as precursor of glutamate in the mammalian central nervous system. - PubMed - NCBI
To my surprise it actually lifted a depression and I didn't feel bad at all after a while. I thought all the peaty stuff I've been doing the last year lowered my stresshormones and I was supposed to feel this way because of this. The lysine must have acted on some other glutamate receptor than the food additives. I've taken a lot of both tianeptine and cyproheptadine, these drugs must have lowered my brain glutamate. Lysine set me straight again.

Sweet. Glad it worked! I love lysine tbt...It didn't feel like it, it felt like something stimulating had been added that hit the sweetspot. I used to take a lot of tianeptine last winter and a lot of cypro last may, since then I've been kind of uninterested and unenthusiastic about things. I remember that's when it started.
