Is that a Vit C herb or something? I broke my nose when I was in my teens, and sinus migraines are a b*tch. If this would help, I would be thrilled.
Hope you’re having a great holiday, Jimi. Hugs and love to you, my bear friend.

That said each person needs to bring their own happiness. Been learning as I live on that my incapacity for being happy is due to internal stuff. In the process of being born my pituitary gland did not release all the chemicals it "normally" ought to have done.
One or a few of those help let human beings have olfactory nerves. Then, those nerves also trigger other chemicals, leading to other portions of the brain doing X or Z. Short end of it, my body does not produce the dopamine responsible for "happy".
This dopamine also controls enthusiasm, interest/s. Then, if it is not enough I can not truly have "joy" in whatever, I get dosed with more intellect. I can learn to do tasks to a point that they become second nature, can sleep and do whatever. So I feel a need to learn more, or "advance" but hit brick walls in doing that too.
Some of the brick walls are internal, others external. This is in part why I can not find "satisfying work" and hold on to that. And no this is not me coping an "attitude" or "making excuses". Would that I be so lucky that it could be that. It instead is genuinely as I'm writing here, an internal medical issue that spills over into psychological issues.
I do appreciate others "being there". Know though it is something each person also struggles with and each person has to bring their own sense of "joy / satisfaction / happiness" into their lives. We can not rely on others for our happiness.
My trouble being, I can not rely on myself for it either. My body simply does not "do that". I have to instead rely on Cognitive Behavioral Training / Techniques in order to "hopefully" find a means to cope. Even then all that can be offered seems like a band aid for a gaping chest wound at times.
I have to work hard keeping myself from thinking life is pointless. Have to keep faith that love holds hope. Know it does ultimately but there are times it does not seem to apply to me. I end up hating that I can not do for myself what others do for themselves, naturally.
The next medicine I could try for "depression" will likely be lithium salts. I have read, heard that they can create "Stepford" people. Sorry, but rather not ave a chemical lobotomy even if I do joke that might be the way to go. I do not want to be an always happy robot, that's unnatural.
Reckon I'll figure it out. Worst case, I leave my dog and wife very upset. Not sure it matter too much to too many more and I don't blame those it would not matter to. Today was rough, tomorrow likely the same. *sigh* Think I'll go get some sleep. We need to grocery shop tomorrow. Same old, same old.

Good evening my friends
I hope everyone is doing well today
Been running errands all day then when I came home I seen my neighbor getting home,haven't seen him for about a week now, so I went over to say hi and see how he was doing (he has stage 4 colon cancer). He had his fourth chemo poisoning last Tuesday and that night was in the hospital, he was just getting home and had new a piece of equipment dangling from a shoulder strap,it looked like one of those oxygen machines but instead of having a breathing hose, it had a hose going "into" his chest. He has to wear a mask all the time too, looked like he was gonna die

Hey, lucky pants. How’s it going? We’re doing okay. Pretty laid back holiday. The weather was cool and cloudy, no heat yet.
Hugs and love to you and the family, and the doggie.

God, I’m sorry to hear that. It must suck knowing you could have helped him. Chemo is poison, but doctors believe in it since that’s the standard “treatment”. It’s so screwed up.
Glad you’re okay, Jimi. We like having you around a lot, my friend!!

It's definitely worth a try, i got "Now" brand and it took a few weeks but after that i very rarely have had any problems anymore, only when i forget to take themSheesh, if it helps my sinuses, I’ll take it. Thanks!

. I used to have to take sinus meds every day, not anymore, it also helps fight a whole array of diseases. And sinus meds are linked to Alzheimer's disease and Dementia.

I like Now brand, they’re pretty solid and affordable. I’ll definitely try it. When I get a sinus migraine, I’m incapacitated. It’s horrible. Plus with all the articles about aspirin and organ damage, I stopped taking that and Naproxen. I’m SOL with pain killers now.
Thanks, Jimi.

He’s only 36? Wow, that’s horrible. I thought he was in his 80’s or something. I didn’t know Tyger got you started on your healing journey. She’s really nice! I spoke to her about some VU tank bands I ordered and she straightened it out. She’s a sweetheart.
I saw her on an episode of Mod Envy when I started vaping six months ago. I was thinking that she and Joe would make a great couple, and then I found out they’re married!
VU is truly the coolest vaping forum and home on the internet. I can’t believe I wasted time feeling bad at ECF! I shouldn’t write posts first thing in the morning. Lol

have your tried 5htp? helped me tremendously
Not heard of it until you mentioned it here. Looking it over on WebMD, it might be something I would consider. As it is I use 3mg of melatonin prior to going to bed.That helps me feel able to "shut off". Will see what therapist & the psychology PA think on this, might wind up being on it. As long as something doesn't do me like Prozac did, or leave me functional but "Stepford", need to try something.
Prozac was real fun, psychotic disassociation, I woke up as a different person when I went to sleep. Meaning I woke up but remained unconsciously asleep. I'm sure you likely have heard of such. Can tell you it is no fun. The psychologist that put me on it, took me off immediately.
the body metabolizes it into serotonin. needs to build up so i'd take an initial high dosis (400m or more the first 2 ~ 3 days)
wont go into details but yeah i know close hand of everything you are talking about here
Roger, hear that. Thanks for rolling six. Appreciate a good word.
I know I was talking about Central Vapes in this thread. I made my first order so I hope all goes well. I found a 25% off coupon code "Sale4me" I have no idea what it really applies to but it applied to the Steampunk 86 stick I purchased. I ended up paying 27.04 .
