Dear all,
Supplements and pharmacology as a route to optimizing myself have interested me for around 15 years. Back then I was in my late teens, with cognitive enhancement as the draw.
Over time the interest put down deeper roots, and further digging into human optimization and biohacking followed.
Two chronic diseases affect me personally, and dealing with them has been helped enormously by taking full ownership of my health. Doctors still have my reliance, and their work has my thanks, but the lesson learned is that whether it's chronic disease or optimizing above one's personal baseline, doing your own research and looking past only FDA/EMA approved medicines, treatments, and supplements can do wonders.
Since I began, biohacking and self-optimization have grown far more established and far less stigmatized, and where things will lead us is something I couldn't be more excited about!
Becoming part of this forum is a pleasure, and I'm hoping for discussions that are more grounded, more interesting, and less redundant than what reddit offers.
