Hey Lao! I think getting a job might be a good thing. You just need to start preparing yourself mentally for it. Just remember, you can just start out with a very easy mindless part time job. I kind of see you doing well working on the computer. So, maybe you don't need mindless since it seems like you have quite an active and intelligent mind. Maybe a temp job to start??? I understand how scary it can be to go back to work for many reasons. Just give going back to work some thought, try to imagine yourself working and see how it feels. It may give you some anxiety, that is normal. Sometimes we need to face things that give us anxiety in order to overcome the fears we have associated with them. I'm sure you know this already : )
Yes, I am still working, and thinking about getting another job on top of this one. I'm only working 3 to 4 days a week right now, and 30 hours at the very most(usually only 21).
I think you might want to consider Schisandra since it not only can increase energy, mental and physical, but it also can improve liver health, which I think all of us on medications could use. Yeah, I agree that Holy Basil works best when there are small breaks taken from it.
Reishi's effects are not as noticeable as Cordyceps. I am hoping more for health benefits from Reishi, though I do expect to feel better from taking them. Ya know, if I were just taking Reishi by itself, without Cordyceps and Chaga, I may be able to better pinpoint any effect it may be having on my well being. The Chaga is there mostly for the potential anti-inflammatory benefits, and the immune boosting effects, which all of the mushrooms appear to have. I believe that mushrooms can have antidepressant effects in that they have the potential to make you FEEL better. For me, when I FEEL well, I feel much less depressed.
Great to hear from you as usual. Peace..
Morgan
