Expect to find curse words, nudity, (occasionally explicit) talk of sex, and angry ranting, but NEVER slurs or sexually violent language. I use TW when I am aware of the need and on request.

This is really interesting. I've never been diagnosed with ADD -- no-one's ever even thought to suggest it -- but some of my challenges are consistent with the symptoms. But I also have lifelong depression, SAD and fibromyalgia. What's fibro-fog and what might be ADD? How much is down to sleep deprivation (from disturbed sleep patterns rather than not being asleep) which is a constant with all of those?

Anyway, is dopamine involved? I'm asking because of the Gingko and Curcumin thing, and the acetyl-choline, which iirc is how dopamine is delivered. Curcumin is readily available in ground turmeric, as long as you also have it with freshly ground black pepper / a drop of black pepper essential oil. When I remember (ha!) I have turmeric / golden milk every day: 2 cups milk / milk substitute of choice + 2 tsps ground turmeric + a good pinch of freshly ground black pepper + whatever other spices you like (e.g. ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon). All in a pan on a low heat. Simmer for 20 minutes. Drink hot or cold.
