Hi Larry
How is the TMG and Enada going for you? I remember you saying that you usually had a crashed at the end of each month, but it didn't happen last month. I wonder if it is the Enada?
"I've found recently that magnesium makes me dopey and subdued. That was not previously the case, so maybe I've "fixed" that part of my biochemical soup already."
Did you have any sleep problems in addition to the dopey feeling? As you remember the Mg worked great for me then seemed to cause sleep problems. I am trying to understand or figure a way to judge my Mg reserves and maybe go on and off like you have mentioned. The reason I ask is that I had a horrible 3 days of little sleep and haven't felt that low in a year and a half. I ended up taking the leftover remeron I had. It is great for sleep, but has some nasty side effects. Mainly, a crunched up feeling in the forehead, some eye focusing problems, and some clarity. Do you think some TMG would be worth a try? Something to shake off the grogginess.
I saw your post on niacinamide. I had the flush with 500 mg too. Almost seemed to cause anxiety. Do you think niacinamide could calm a person, but at the same time be activating? I wonder if it could have contributed to my sleep problem. I may try trazadone if I can't take the remeron. But, I do know remeron does a great job with anixety, sleep, and to an extent helps my math ability at work. Hard to explain, a little spacey, but my way of joking and appreciaton of music returned????? Wish I knew how or what receptors it is acting upon.
One troubling item is the spaciness or anixety after eating. Could that be cortisol or something else? To me, it is something that is very much a body reaction to the food, not stress.
Hope the trucking is going safe and sound. Thanks Larry and have a good one.
