First time user reconciliation

Hi there!

I’m not exactly first time user as I ran one title a few years back but I’m on day 13 now of running a 2 zp stack - dragon reborn phoenix + limitless and since about a week, I am so tired all the time. At first I thought it was to do with other things, health, maybe minéral definlciency, overdoing some exercise etc. but then I remembered that it could be reconciliation?! Is this what reconciliation is? Apart from being tired I think maybe I’m also getting depressed, not sure as it’s not something I’m too familiar with but have really low energy and enthusiasm. I have projects that I want to move forward with but have like a heavy feeling about doing anything, plus an urge to oie around and to eat chips and ice cream DAILY - I haven’t eaten ice cream for a long time, and chips, yeah once in a while I’d buy a pack but not days and days in a row…

Those are two hard hitting subs. Of course you’re going to feel their combined effect hard.

Typical overexposure symptoms. How many minutes are you listening?

More overexposure and reconciliation symptoms. Check the number of minutes you’re listening and maybe take a few days off.

Thanks so much for the quick and detailed replies. I’m doing 15 minutes of each title. Unbelievable that it can have such a powerful effect but totally makes sense too.

I will do as suggested and take a break then shorten the length.

How do you guys do to monitor the time as I’m guessing you don’t sit there looking at the track length, or do you? Set a timer I suppose?

Are you listening to both titles together every other day full loops?

You’ll need to drop or cut back on Dragon Reborn: Phoenix. This is less recon and more overexposure / high processing. Tiredness comes from the mind simply processing a lot of information.

The ice cream cravings (in my experience, it’s chocolate brownies), seem to be the result of the body / brain giving itself access to quick and easy energy (sugar / glucose).

This is my experience too. I often got powerful ice cream craving when switching to a new/heavy sub or increasing listening time considerably.

Also: Sugar cravings are often linked to thirst/dehydration. Make sure you drink a bit more water than normal.

Yes, this as well. Good catch.

Yes I was listening to the full 15 minutes of each!

Ok thanks! Actually maybe you can give me some other advice. One thing that I really am battling with is addiction to smoking cigarettes. I don’t see a title in particular on addictions and I thought the phoenix could be good for this. Could you confirm if this is the case or suggest another title please?

Actually due to watching a podcast on drinking salt water in the morning, I did that this morning and ended up wanting more and more and drank a big amount in the end - after I felt really great!

Welcome to the Phoenix, buddy

This I am not really sure I agree with. In my experience, it seemed to be a form of emotional binging for avoiding the deep pain of emotional processing. In my case its Oreo biscuits haha and intrestingly can also be a non-sweet snack that tastes real good.
