Some of us learn the hard way

Well I discovered I should never listen to subs when I’m sick with severe cold or flu. I was almost recovered and it brought it on even stronger again :weary:

I think my immune system needed the energy for healing and it went into the sub processing?

That’s my theory. What have others experienced with this? I think I recall reading somewhere on the forum that its best to take extra rest days when in that state.

But I did listen to 3 minutes of a custom up from 1 min, so that could have also been the cause because recon was greater too.

Anyway thought I should just mention this in case it helps someone else.

Thanks for sharing, i’ve often wondered about this myself but always intuitively avoided subs when sick. Hope you feel better!

What about Paragon though? :thinking:

An excellent point.

It did cross my mind that can help with sickness, yet processing takes energy too, and if you get hit with recon and fatigue, that could be counter productive to healing.

Maybe I just listened to too much of my custom for me right now.

Well, for me thats the point with paragon…it makes me so tired that i can sleep. Else i am to restless.

Paragon is not that nasty recon with fatigue and agitation and restlessness…its just tiredness. Even a 2 min loop makes me lie down and take a nap

The recent few times I felt unwell I ran only Paragon. Rapid effect which I’ve only had from KB, though the first time I ran it (5min) I had moments of tiredness the next day.

Are you talking about Paragon Complete or Paragon Sleep?

I’m currently in the same boat with what feels like round 2 of pneumonia. I was starting to see a correlation with exposure to my EmpD/PRom/BDLM custom. Looks like I will have to chill on that one a bit, at least until I’m fully recovered.

Thank you for posting this up, @Starman !
