I take N-acetylcysteine and it helps with brain fog also! Plus it reduces stress and irritability.

  And OCD symptoms, and many also benefit from better impulse control. Its more effective than SSRIs for some. NAC is one of the only known treatments for trichotillomania, a under discussed but common condition that causes people to uncontrollably pull their hair out. NAC has also been studied to reduce nicotine and alchohol cravings as well.

    Are there any risks associated with NAC supplementation? For example, could long-term usage reduce aptosis and thereby increase risks of developing cancer?

  What is your dosage?

    I take 1200mg a day, when Im taking it. I think standard/reccomended dosage is 600mg.

      What's the reason to take it everyday? Does it truly make a difference everyday or could you get away with 1/3 days? What are the effects on you?

        Late response, but I have OCD and trichotillomania. I take a higher dose because the studies that measure effectiveness for these disorders used this dosage. I do not notice any effects outside of less compulsion to mess with my hair, which us huge (for me).
