caroline said:Thanks, Peata. I'm not going to bother with Progest-E then. Sounds like we are similar about what causes the anxiety. I can't help it with academics. I am not a normal learner so academics are stressful for me. Period. But I need them to do what I want. But some people on this forum seem very adept with measuring-take this if you are taking that, etc. I can't be bothered with that. I wish we didn't have to order gelatin. Even that is a hassle.
I do 1500 mg of niacinamide and it is PERFECT. I am compulsive a bit, so when I like something, I tend to want to do more, but the 1500 of niacinamide seems perfect. Also, more dose means you run out more quickly which means you spend more. So I'd rather just take minimum.
I am guessing 1500 total of B1 might be perfect for me. All at once. I will see. I am not motivated to take 1500 3 times a day. I don't want to spend that much money on stupid pills. It may work to take the same amount split through the day, but I won't remember to do that. Too much hassle. I didn't leave to go get more, but if I do, maybe I will take more and see what happens. I'm not sure; I will see. Again, I think more, means you think you need more, then you take more, and spend more. Not excited about that idea.
I would absolutely NOT take this later in the day. I don't take niacinamide later in the day either. It keeps me from sleeping. I like getting all of my supplements in first thing. But again, it may work very differently for others.
I also hate ordering gelatin, so sometimes I just get Knox or the store-brand of Knox (it's a couple dollars cheaper). I try to get in one Tablespoon (or packet) of gelatin per day. Sometimes I take 2 or 3 T.
And yes, I hate using up so many supplements so fast. The niacinamide seemed like it was gone in no time.
I'm OK with ordering online usually, especially if I can get more than one thing I need at one place, and free shipping. But it would be nice if everything was available to just pick up locally.
Looking forward to hearing more of your progress. Keep up the good work.
