No, just aspirin and coffee.
It might be that low serotonin only makes you able to cry if you have more progesterone than testosterone (caffeine and aspirin increase progesterone a lot), and that it doesn't work when you deplete serotonin with only BCAA and leave your testosterone higher than progesterone. Just guessing, not 100% sure.
I asked, BCAA, because only BCAA, without tyrosine or phenilanine, will lower serotonin and dopamine
Caffeine also increases DHT
Maybe caffeine and aspirin just stimulated you more and your body don't had the resources, don't had the vitamin, carbs etc. So he raised stress hormones to pick up what he was needing
