In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial masque which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

I had depression which was triggered by lack of sleep. Not even kidding. Lack of sleep causes cortisol buildup in your brain. If you want to feel better try something for me anon.

You're in a depression slump, happens to me to.

Advice :

> Get liquid melatonin from amazon
> Take 0.3 mcg 30 minutes before sleep
> Go to sleep before 11pm (Important)
> Make sure you get 8 hours of sleep
> Try and cut blue light/electronics 10 minutes before taking melatonin

Try this for 5 days.

And make a plan the day before, you have to get something to wake up to that excites you.

I eat nutella with eggs and spinach everyday for breakfast, it's the only sugar I eat but I get happy from that suggary kick.

It's because you are taking way to much, it's what I do when I want to have crazy fucking nightmares, in the past 4 days I've had :

>Getting bitten by a snake
>Having childhood friends meet me again and make fun of me
>Getting stuck in a house with my mom and a zombie

It's really fun if you understand it's essentially your subconscious displaying all these feeling you really have deep down, it's a great tool for self reflection if you won't do meditation.

Take pic related, 3 to 5 drops, you will sleep without dreams, full dropper drops for a subconscious trip.

It's all about the dosage, high dose can also make you depressed.

I don't have routine, the only routine is by my friends messages. Too bad most of them are across the world. I expat'd for a year and my entire friendlist changed.

Cardio in the morning is best, 2 hours.

A breakfast, high fiber and good in carbs, energy is good. I like banana and granola.
Setting up proper sleep/being awake times.

For me I usually sleep 8pm-2-3AM so I can be up trading on the markets, like the dip to 310 today in litecoin and it's now $335. I caught that.

That's exactly what mindfulness is, I remember not being able to sleep without some background noise because silence would make me start thinking fucked up things about myself, can you imagine?

Doing meditation once or twice per day you will see those thoughts and let them go away, the first times it's going to be hard but you will get used to it as long as you maintain it, i find that If i drink some green tea like the zen monks before doing it I manage to keep at it.

If the habit doesn't stick consider going to a meditation retreat, it's liking trowing yourself into a pool to learn how to swim, very effective if you're not retarded.

Mindfulness is like defragmenting your brain, everytime I sit I go through all thoughts possible but I just observe them for a second and start focusing on breathing again.

It's not always a superpower, some people get even more depressed if they have bipolar disorders or other psychological malaise, but give it a try.

Good luck.

Really interesting, there was a little bit on Wikipedia about this but it was kind of dismissive (lack of rigorous studies).

At any rate I'm hoping psilocybes are legalized by2020. There's a lot of extraordinary medical / physiological benefits (you can just search "psilocybin" on google scholar for examples). And microdosing is /comfy/

So should I just get some of the lions mane capsules off amazon and start taking this stuff? I've had some pretty bizarre health problems at a young age despite having an extremely healthy lifestyle (bells palsy). my face has returned to 97% normal functioning to the point where people cant notice, but i still see the little bit of nerves that are still paralyzed. maybe this shit can help..

I certainly don't see it having any possible downsides, I'd go for it.

Yeah I’m an autist but I’m a good dude and if you’re lucky enough to be in crypto in 2014/2015... you shouldn’t be living like a piece of shit anymore. Time is the most precious commodity
