It's an interesting question and people who got hired this way would say "definitely". It helps to know, at least vaguely, what sort of industry you are looking to get into. If it is a Fortune 500 type of corporate business, a best way to start in mid 20s with limited experience is through an internship. Through that you could be offered a lower paid rate from which a full time employment can be offered. This is actually fairly common. This is how |I started my corporate journey too (the thing that I'm now trying to leave it is another matter :D) for this type of business you need a decent-looking CV, polished, to the point and free from fluff such as "i am a good multitasker and team player". They value directness. They like to hear about case studies. You know, what did you do in your old job that helped. DId you have an interesting project? If so, talk about it and tell how you helped the company. Big corpo is all about efficiency and cost savings, if you can demonstrate that you can be efficient and come up with ideas on how to save some money they may consider you. In addition, a Linkedin profile is a must in this sort of environment. If you can have a few people from old work endorse you, that might help. Gather a few contacts, and follow a bunch of people so they follow you back. If the targeted industry is small businesses (e.g. media, creative agencies, stage green type of businesses) then you can get in by having a creative resume such as a nicely edited video that will describe why you are an asset and why they basically loose by not hiring you" But I've never worked in this culture so it would help to have an opinion of someone who did. These types of businesses can also consider you for an internship and if they like you and have budget to keep you, they will. This one is tricky. Many businesses have setup block filters for external emails and people are nowadays so busy that unless this is coming from intra company, you will be ignored. It may still be worth trying with smaller businesses but your email has to be brief, creative, ideally have an interactive element (e.g. video or your own personal vlog) and talk about them (the company) rather than yourself. How can you help THEM? Why should THEY hire you? How will the person making the decision justify it? What will they tell to their boss?" At some point, the recruiter will have a one-to-one with their boss. What would they say? Why would not hiring you be actually a disadvantage for them? Why would ignoring you be a bad strategy? Not sure if you agree, perhaps not. Take it as a subjective perspective Hopefully something in there is useful

@acidgoofy Yeah, been using it for many years. It is basically "How to cook plant-based 101"

It really depends on where this is coming from. But through our chat before and through some posts & tests I've seen it is possible that in your case this is coming from the gut, at least a portion of it. I think this is where I would start. it certainly can. Mould can, in some people exacerbate things like asthma, chest tightness and allergic response, . I haven't seen any data on mould-related depressive disorder but I think with these things, anything is possible and individual genetic predispositions, immune tolerance and sensitisation may impact how people respond and why some seem to get irritated by it and others don't. But systemic toxicity would not be my first go-to unless I have exhausted al other areas with a client without any response. Still, if you believe this can be a contributor and you can make a case for it by being able to trace your major sources, it could be worth exploring and acting on.

Usually, anhedonia is a side symptom of depression (or a similar condition) . I think it can be cured if the depression can be cured. That inability to experience pleasure is basically how most people experience depression. For all we know it may even be a side effect of the medication used for depression in some people.

Can't go wrong with HOW NOT TO DIE - COOKBOOK ?

Yes, it might damage your teeth and if you do it too often potentially ulcerate your oral mucosa, impact your oral microbiome and have a negative impact on the mucosa of the oesophagus (google Barret's oesophagus). There is a reason why GERD is a risk factor for oesophageal cancer. I'd probably be careful with anything that forces you to vomit too often.

hell yeah! About time Ido got on the podcast {moving this to health subforum btw}

@integral I was editing my previous response but you beat me to it Anyways with regards to that wheezing, that often signifies some sort of allergic response or a response to inhaled chemical but in this case, it may still be some sort of shock and stress response to what's going on. Better keep an eye on it What I wanted to say in that previous message is. Did she take this in the first place to get help with her depression? And if so, have you guys explored that alley properly through more "down to earth methods?" I am not an expert but maybe sometimes the answer may not necessarily be consciousness expanding straight away and it could be more simple Maybe you could derive some wisdom from this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u31Nk3ZAh-o&t=54&ab_channel=Actualized.org But it goes deeper: Is she happy in her life? Does she like what she does for a living? Does it give her satisfaction? Is there a childhood trauma she hasn't deal with yet How is her health? Before the crisis I mean (gut health, dental health, systemic health, diet quality, lifestyle, activity levels etc) Is she regularly exercising? Does she sleep properly and enough? Is your relationship fulfilling? Women derive a lot of personal satisfaction from the quality of their relationship, way way more than men. Does she have unmet desires that she is suppressing (desire to travel more, explore, live in foreign country, etc) You know, the more down-to-earth type of stuff. I think it is important you guys explore all the basic stuff too.

Has she had this before the trip?

absolutely not! If the mechanism you're describing (serotonin reuptake mechanism antagonist) is indeed how this stuff affects her brain then the last thing you want to do is flood her body with more serotonin precursors. In fact, even doctors are warned not to mix SSRIs with 5-HTP or St John's Wort. You risk giving her serotonin crisis and making her temporarily manic and delusional. Also, I'm pretty sure that's not the only mechanism and that the effect goes way beyond only serotonin modulation. You're probably looking at noradrenaline, dopamine and glutamate manipulation as well and probably effects that are beyond the scope of monitoring for the mainstream neuroscience impacting the brain's electrical signalling and neuroplasticity. Whenever in doubt, let the body handle it. I know you want to feel like there is something you can do t help, but in all honesty, you're better of leaving it, the body has 100,000 years of evolution behind it. Let nature do what it has learned to do over those millennia and stop interfering.

Well, you could for example write everything in One Note (set it up to dark mode) or on Penzu and then just copy-paste it here? This way you'll also have your journals backed up in case of future crash.

@integral i agree with Leo, maybe the substance has a long half life in the body or utilizes detoxification pathways that are not as effective in humans so it takes longer. Hard to tell. Give it time to be detoxified. I wouldn't throw other stuff in the mix, it may just get in the way. let the body do what it needs to. If situation worsens, consider contacting Emergency Services, there are things they can do if they suspect toxicity

No problem, thank you for fixing the issue. Anything lost can be reposted no big deal. Maybe you should actually shut it down for a few days every now and then to give us procrastinators an opportunity to self reflect ?

The best suggestion would be to find someone who specialises in nutritonal and lifestyle approach to cancer with an evidence based mindset who is also accustomed to working with herbs, supplements and natural remedies. In a cancer cure, a radical lifestyle transformation is often required. You could read about Dean Ornish and his prostate cancer approach, imo that is an alley worth exploring

True, talent should have been mentioned BUT....without having the infrastructure created for them by other people, having been pushed into music early in life, having spent thousands of hours practicing in youth (through an incentive of a more conscious person)...this would not have happened if they were born to poor family who struggled to survive and the boy would, rather than being a musician, be selling bread on the corner of some side alley. Talent is useless if the environment allowing it to flourish is not there. Actually, I also disagree with you. It is possible, for an average person to match the genuis of Beethoven should they participate in deliberate practice since their early early childhood, get the opportunities, the push and the incentive and go through the same level of trajectory he went through. Ofcourse they need to desire it and it needs to be their greatest vision for their life. They may not overshadow the likes of Mozart, that's true but they could get pretty close if they were, at that times exposed to similar level of intrinsic drive and external environment as well as the opportunities. Also, don't forget that the competition was more scarce back then. The world is full of talented hard working artist with an absolute genius level of mastery...that you have never and will never hear about because they are overshadowed by Rihannas and Cardi Bs of the internet and they suck at marketing

Being born and having lived at times when the competition was scarce for what they were trying to achieve Being born to a well-off family that had an appreciation for the importance of "daily practice" and education Being born in a first-world country with decent economic resources and political stability Having had financial resources growing up Having had influential parents or guardians Ofcourse we cannot discount persistence, discipline, dedication, commitment and the ability to commit to thousands of hours of deep undisrupted work. But without the above it would not happen. This is why some people grow to become CEOs and other, working even harder end up having 3 shitty jobs earning 500 times less. How you are positioned in the society when you are born, makes success much much easier but ofcourse it is not guaranteed as you can see in Gen Z guys and girls being born to rich families and suffering crippling anxieties, depressions and getting completely overwhelmed with life without challenges .

@Preety_India good good girl ??

@Michael Jackson @Aleister Crowleyy damn, that's gotta be the first time I see an open conflict like that take a total twist into the "it's all good bro" scenario. You both have loads to contribute, let's not get our fair judgement clouded by bitter emotions and pointless fighting. Glad to see you've managed to defuse the situation, good job both of you

Yes, this is the reason why certain conditions like multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer's disease cause permanent disabilities because they have not, so far, found an efficient way to get these neurons back online. When you're talking about neuroplasticity it means shaping and reshaping existing connections with the neurons you already have and pulling them into different directions, I believe this has nothing to do with creating new "neuron cells" per se. But I might be wrong on this. As far as I know, only peripheral nervous system injuries are reversible. There might be some flexibility through naive satellite cells very early in life but I believe this number is severely limited due to how isolated the brain is and once you have those deployed, that's it. There are experimental studies in-vitro where substances like Lion's Mane have been shown to stimulate Nerve Growth Factor or BDNF but this has not been shown to happen in humans, at least I haven't seen anything documented. If anyone knows of any case report, please do share. I believe it a news like that came up, Andrew would probably be one of the first to know about it as most of this research is coming from Universities like Standford. There could be anecdotal cases that never get documented tho, that's certainly possible. I've heard Robert Morse claiming that he was able to cure paraplegics with his protocol but I don't know how reliable those claims are. To this day, I haven't made up my mind on where I stand with the man. Part of me wants to believe him that's for sure

@Loba @Preety_India I don't know what to tell you guys. Nobody can stop you from reading anything on here but if you've had a grievance with eachother just stop consuming eachother's content. I don't see any rule violation here so it's up to you two how you will approach this situation.

Stage orange values are attractive to a society that is mostly stage blue. It's a natural progression of things. Before one can care about recycling and saving the planet, one needs to go through the cycle of endless materialism and hedonism (to some degree at least). Morals have nothing to do with it, it's a pure psychology development and world perception. None of these people are evil or greedy, it's just where they are right now. Most of the western world is in that stage as well

I'd be curious how accurate are hair mineral interpretations of those particular nutrients. Just because a result of A tests says something, especially a tests such as hair mineral analysis which is just notoriously inaccurate, does not mean that's what the situation is. Also, what evidence is there that X-levels of choline and creatine in hair tissue has anything to do with in-tissue levels? I'd be curious to explore that Secondly I don't even know if serum levels of those nutrients are a realistic interstation of in-tissue levels. We can certainly measure choline and creatine but is it a valid interpretation of what happens inside the cells? Might be and might not. For example serum levels of nutrients like B12, B9, Zinc are notoriously inaccurate when measure in blood compared to markers like methylmalonic acid, holo transcobalamin or active folate. Specific markers need to be often sought for accurate representation of in-tissue vitamin levels otherwise we are just guessing. If we agree that results are accurate (which we don't know) it could be that with improved food combining those things could be fixed to ensure you are eating sufficient amount of B-vitamin rich nutrients (wholegrains and legumes) and sufficient amino acid pool to supply creatine building blocks. Choline is also found in abundance in legumes and wholegrains so could it be that you're simply sacrificing particular food groups and correcting that could help correct those levels. Hard to say without knowing more about your dietary structure. You can be Vegan in a thousand different dietary ways.
