Hi! So as mentioned in a previous post, i'm in europe (france) and i'm looking for a polygala extract that is serious and effective on my mood. I emailed Dragon herbs, they said that the polygala in this mix is 30%, and is a 10:1 extract. What do you think ?
Hi! so as the title says, do you think that ND can ship polygala in france without custom fees/problems, since it seems that polygala is regulated in europe?
So, some of you probably saw my previous post about my "nac problems", ect. Obviously, i don't only rely only on supplments for my mental health, it's only a little plus for me.
So after some research, i decided to take a break and after that, take 600mg of nac, and pause it for one month after 3 month, and so on. Maybe try 1200mg if needed. But i'll always take a break to avoid anheonia.
So far, my stack for depression, OCD and mood regulation has always been: Saffron from affron, Rhodiola rosea and ashwagandha ( both cycled), omega 3, Zinc, D3/K2, B9 and B12, creatine. Nac is obviously paused.
I tried Lion's mane, but after some times, i finally understood: you need money to have GOOD lion's mane that REALLY boost the NGF/BNDF lol. So i gave up on lion's mane, and i wanted to try polygala, buuut i'm in france and it's really difficult to find. The only site i can find is sketchy:
... too bad, cause with polygala, i could drope saffron, it could have covered NGF/BNDF, serotonine and dopamine, i could have saved more money. Also, i heard about Agmatine, but it's the same problem.
Sooo, i made more research and i found that i can improve my stack with ALCAR, Uridine and bacopa OR Gotu kola, to have some BNDF and NGF stimulation, more energy and motivation, and "brain reparation" for depression. But it's too big of a stack for me.
Also, i wonder if ALCAR could have similare side effects to NAC, since it have "Acetyl" in it's name? I saw a post about NAC and ALCAR causing Choline depression.
So, do you have some advices please on how to improve and optimise my stack? Also, should i choose Gotu kola or bacopa?
And of cours, i won't change my stack RIGHT NOW, i'm still waiting to get better after what happened with NAC. I am just gathering some informations.
So i'm from france, and all i can find in iherb is the Dragon Herbs "Will power" thing, and i don't trust them, because it's mixed with other herbs and we can't see how much polygala there is in the caps. So if anyone knows where i can find a good polygala extract in europe without any issues with customs...
Edit: i'm looking for a 20:1 extract
Hello,
So i've been taking nac for 5 months, i have bpd, depression and ocd. I'm resistant to antidepressant. I started from 600mg and slowly incrased. It's been 1 month since i incrased up to 2400mg. Since then, nothing happened, and then 3 weeks later, i brutaly had a mental crash. My depression got worst, my ocd got worst and my phone addiction got worst. I got really tired and felt miserable. I decreased the dose back to 1800mg, i felt a little better for 1 week but then it was back again. I don't really know if it's related to NAC but i stopped today and i'll see if it get better.
I already had something similar in the past but it was with a really bad NAC, not good quality at all, oxyded and all. And it was almost instantly. It got really better when i stopped.
Has anyone experimented something like this with NAC ? I don't see any similare side effect in the scientific litterature. All i see is about anhedonia.
Maybe it's not related to NAC and it's "just" my mental health. And i know, i have to see my psychiatrist, but i just wanted to ask if anyone already experimented something similar or if anyone know something about it.

Hi, i'm trying to cure my phone addiction and block gemini in appblock. (I have ocd and i keep asking reassurance to IA, i can't escape IAs they are every where 💀) But it doesn't work unless i block google entirely. (Gemini is native in my phone with Google) Wich is impossible because i need it for school. I deactivated it in the settings but it's very easy to reactivate it in play store. I can't block play store either. I have a Xiaomi mi UI note 14. Do you know a way? Also, i suppose it's impossible to block meta IA on WhatsApp either...?

Edit: problem solved for now : i can block gemini in an app called "Stay focused" and i "sabotaged" meta IA. I asked it to not answer me anymore ever, because of my phone addiction and all. Now each time i ask something it tells me to seek professionnal help lol, thanks i'm already doing it haha
Hi, so I'm in europe and i've been taking Lions mane from Vegavero from some times, but with no effect. So i've been reading more about lions mane, and apparently, dual extraction is the best and if i'm looking for better focus and good NGF factor, i should look for a supplement with enough Erinacine... someone recommanded me Real Mushrooms, but we don't know how much erinacine are in the caps... I've heard about Oriveda and Erinamax, but it's too expensive for me... is there a brand that is cheaper and is similare? or it's impossible?
Bonjour, je ne sais pas trop ou poster cela, désolé si c'est hors sujet... J'aimerais savoir si j'ai le droit à la prime d'activité en étant en service civique. Je sais qu'il suffit de faire une recherche google et que le premier resultat est "non", mais j'ai trouvé à coté des infos contradictoires, et on m'a parlé d'une circulaire un peut sombre qui sème la confusion et serais sorti en 2019, la C 2019-010, mais j'ai un doute si elle existe vraiment. Elle est sensé dire en gros que oui, les revenus du service civique sont une indemnité donc techniquement pas de prime d'activité, mais ce qu'on fait au service civique est une activité. La caf ne dépendant pas du code de la caf mais de la sécurité sociale, elle considèrerais qu'on fait une activité donc on peut avoir droit à la prime seuil, malgré la neutralisation des ressources et le montant net social de 0. Cela semble être totalement faux, surtout qu'il n'y a aucune trace de cette circulaire sur le web, mais j'aimerais avoir une confirmation. Donc si des personnes travaillent à la caf ou connaissent les circulaires de la caf... Je suis preneur.
