## Highlights this week - Aug 15th to 21st - little sleep, taurine energy & hangover(s), new hacks

Symbol & emoji of the week: ✅ 🤪

1. Self-discipline: breakfasting while blogging, now with morning “taurine”. 🙃
2. **Supps** : Taurine adrenalized, surprisingly 😃 - so using that effect.
3. **Taurine** shows it’s more **individual fx** than **just serotonin vs. dopamine**. 🧐
4. 600+↘500 **GABA** seems to mean more racing thoughts 🏇, so keeping it up.
5. **Theanine** ↘200mg might be better than 300mg after all, keeps too alert.. 🧐
6. Now **amino acids** except 1st 600 GABA **at “2:00”** helps. 😃
7. **Glutamine** ↘400 seems OK. 🧐
8. **Bladder pain** is now more 0 than 1 😃 from the vibrator at acupressure? 🧐
9. Activities & actions were pretty good again. 😃
10. Back mobilization undid itself quick, so now “ **vibrator** ” 😃
11. **Symptoms** : bladder, jaw, energy still ✅ Exhaustion isn’t.❌ 😃
12. **GI** with some heartburn & bowel discomfort due to too many risks taken (grains+sugar & fizzy).
13. Acid: Thujone in the wormwood of my Gastritol decreases GABA. Trying chewing almonds instead.
14. Intensified & sped up **AuTr** (“FAT”) with 1 image: “legs to jaw, drifting in space/liquid”! ✅
15. **Stiffness** : “I’d like to see more improvement there…”. 🧐
16. Right loin is OK-ish, but still need short ➡ gym. ✅ ❌👹
17. **Sleep:** : It’s a must to surf on the wave of tiredness & not override it. 👹
18. **Stuffy nose** was suddenly better, praps cos my head knows whether cold or hot is better for me? 🧐
19. **Pee frequency** still down at night. 😃
20. Keeping **2nd cold shower** (30’’), drying gently (patting) preempts creaming. 😃
21. Hunchback pillow without lower back unrest: **twist backside up**! 😃
22. After having thought I may be **feeling** worse in **sleep breaks** , I’ve now noted **90%/1** usually. 😃
23. **Sitting** on bar stool still good! ✅
24. Researching **amino acids** deeper as well as interesting deep & lengthy forum work this week.
25. Improved the way I **track symptoms & treatments** here in the blog, & added “ **Up Next** ”. 🙂
26. Need to do **amino acid** & **symptom tracking** bundling posts here & elsewhere.
