A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

There should be a term for people who never really returned from the pandemic's social isolation (fedia.io)

People who haven't really resumed socializing at levels they used to, people who lost the capacity to regulate during interpersonal interactions, people who lost trust in others... I encounter lots of partial returners out there

Currently seeing some decent effects from low dose naltrexon, although it seems to shift my energy more than it increases it. The further I'm from having taken my daily (evening) dose the better i feel, but in the mornings I'm extra tired and can't really focus my eyesight.

But it's hard to separate the side effects from the multiple other treatments I'm building the dosages for.

Ah yeah, I've heard some promising things about LDN. My doctor won't prescribe it for me though. There's apparently a different version of it that's being researched but it's early days. Good luck with all.
