I spoke to you recently about dealing with some possible burnout from working at my laptop too much over the past 12 months.

For the benefit of everyone else my main issues are impaired executive function, excessive rumination and I seem to get easily overwhelmed with anything other than pretty basic tasks.

After doing lots of research I’ve come to realise (like you said) that things could be much worse… I’m looking into rumination, cognitive behavioral therapy and restructuring how I work and making sure I get enough breaks with sunlight throughout the day is a big one.

On 4th day of AM cardio feeling good. Trying to find the right balance so I can still do resistance exercises most days.. And diet (cronometer) and sleep hygiene is spot on.

I stopped taking all nootropics for the past 2 weeks to give myself a break from them. I was struggling to get the dose lately. Either didn’t feel anything or made me feel worse.

But over the past 3 days I’ve been taking 40-60mg bromantane with 15mg of 9-ME-BC which I feel great on.

My question is are there any nootropics or supplement that you recommend I stay away from as they might hinder my recovery…

And is there any noots/supplements/pharma that you recommend I take that will help speed it up? Thinking subQ semax/selank combo or cerebralysin maybe.

Appreciate all your help with this BTB!
