Ah, ok. Thanks for the clarification. I thought you meant that 5 hours a week was all it took to fulfill your job requirements.
Btw, Thank you for your candor. I can relate to your experience; knowing I could do so much better, but just not being able to focus on work adequately because at times my "brain just refuses to work correctly." So frustrating. Glad to see that someone has hacked a workaround to the problem.
Really my purpose in the comment wasn't to convince anyone they should take this. My intention can be summed up by "Hey, I tried this and it seems to work for me and is safe; it's just vitamins. If it piques your interest, do your own research on it and decide whether you want to try it"
I've been mostly a lurker here on HN for the past few years, and haven't made many comments.
So for the sake of my learning curve, can anyone clue me in to the reasons for down votes? I don't take them personally. Just curious and wanting to learn. Is it because the comment seems spammy? Or is it off topic? Sloppy writing?
Sorry, sloppy writing. It was actually about a week and a half. I wasn't very scientific about it at all, just went off for awhile to see what would happen.
For mild depression, anxiety and ADHD, I've been using an all natural vitamin supplement called EMPowerPlus from Truehope for the last three months. I've noticed mild improvement in my mood. I've been on anti-depressants before that didn't work.
Last week I went off of it for two weeks just to see if I could discern any difference. I felt my mild depression return and I couldn't lift myself out. With the supplement, I can.
Very expensive, but I'm going to keep using it as I feel the results are worth it. Their website cites published clinical studies to it's efficacy.
