I started a few days ago on 8 grams a day and since today with 3 grams of glucose on top. I feel strange. Jittery. With heat flashes. Mentally bad. All in all it feels like stopping to take antidepressants so I hope it's not somehow interfering with the Venlafaxin my doctor prescribed.

But it's the first time in a long while that I'm feeling anything from anything I tried so I will keep taking it a while longer.

Here's a study on the subject. https://www.deutschesgesundheitsportal.de/2024/06/03/long-covid-symptomlinderung-mit-kreatin-plus-glukose/

I jokingly refer to it as Ketamin and wonder if someone took me seriously and snuck it in there.
