He loved guns. Of course he's not going to have documentation of mental illness. Those two rarely if ever go hand in hand.

Like I'm friends with a few arms dealers. Ones got a lot of integrity in what he does but is also suffering from depression and anxiety. Can't talk to a doctor to get meds and he can't smoke weed or even CBD products or he'll lose his license. Like it's frustrating because he's able to talk to friends and get some minor support from us but he should be able to get actual professional help without having to lose his entire business.

Show her the studies that show melatonin is less effective at higher doses. We're seriously overdosing with the bottle-reccomended doses, anyway. It's like 0.3mgs or something that's the optimal dose, the lowest I can find a pill in is 1-2mgs.

I'm a constant user and I want the same studies done, too. Like I'm extremely thankful it helps with my pain and immobility so I can get through my day but I'd like to know what I'm actually doing to myself in the long run.

That makes sense with how crazy adaptive our bodies are, of course it would start storing fat to better insulate our organs and keep them working in cold environments. Pretty much every mammal in arctic or tundra environments have a big layer of fat or blubber for protection.

My brain(lol) went immediately to Alzheimer's patients, since Alzheimer's causes your brain to quite literally erode away and makes the brain shrink significantly in mass.

No idea how this tech would work to help that, but still, they're the patients who need more neural connections. Especially the devastating early onset cases.
