So altogether .25 mg per day. Felt calmer this morning than I have in a while.
Using aid of hypnotherapists recorded session ad acupuncture 3 times per week.
I may have to reduce acupuncture due to covid-19 though. We have 38 cases in our county now
(Bernalillo in NM). Concerned my acupuncturist may potentially get infected.
