I've been taking 600 mg of NAC every morning, five days on and two days off, and the side effect of blunting emotions and causing emotional numbness is, quite frankly, amazing.

I get to be emotionally detached from everyone and everything while still remaining active and doing my job properly.

I have become an effective robot. I just get on with my work with no feelings. I still exercise every day, sleep well, eat healthily, get social connection, sunlight, hydration, and time to decompress, and I practice gratitude. But at the same time, I feel detached. It's honestly beautiful.

I know it sounds contradictory, paradoxical, and sociopathic, but why wouldn't you want this form of anhedonia if it helps you be productive, avoid getting caught up in gossip and drama, and just move forward?
