Hello from Southern California

Hello,

Hope everyone has found what they are seeking here cause now I am hoping the same.

Dealing with depression and seek to get some good input on relieving these painful feelings.

I was told about this site by Angela but didn’t know her profile name to give her credit. She mentioned to me about a product I believe she referred to as “shine”

Thank you in advance for any input..
Diana

Welcome Diana! You must be referring to the Instant Shine or IS consumer line product. Although with depression, you may want to consider getting professional help. This product will simply help you feel happy temporarily especially after a bad day. It’ll also have a great effect on others as well! Are you looking for anything else? :wink:

Thank you Jazzysax. I just saw this at the store. I am curious about strength. If you know and can help I am wondering if normal strength would be ok to start with?

Again thanks!

This is a mone you can’t go wrong with really In my opinion even if you overdose (OD) . It really makes the pheromone skeptic start believing and is a good starter. I started out with 1x which I believe is 2.5 mcg(micrograms/spray) Now for someone with depression, you may want to up it.It may be best cost wise to try the to go sprays before getting into the 30 ml because if you find you don’t like it, then it’ll be a waste. With any order though you might see a little something extra in the package as well :wink: . Strength is up to you but if you’re starting out, you can always up it later.

Hello, Dianas! Welcome!

Allow me to be the voice of balance here. I would really caution you on the use of IS when depression is in the mix. One quirk about IS is that many people experience a “crash” when the positive effects wear off. IS has a pretty short life span, so the crash may hit around 2 hours after you apply it. The crash may involve headache, tiredness, irritability, etc. Probably not the best thing to add to a predisposition for depression.

I’m not saying that you should definitely stay away from IS, but don’t bank on it as your secret weapon.

I have 2 other suggestions that you might want to try as your base, and possibly use a little bit of IS to boost their effects. First, I’d strongly recommend MX335 (you could also try MX135 or MX 235…they are the same formulation, just with different fragrances). I find it to be the kinder sister of IS. The effects are more smooth and less abrupt, it lasts much longer, and there is no crash.

My second suggestion is p130. If you ever have any anxiety symptoms, this may be a great choice. It’s usually effective against panic, fear, worry, nervous tension, racing thoughts, etc. You might want to stay away from it if you are feeling anger or irritability, as it might agitate those feelings.

As a general reminder, always start out slow. Start with only one spray the first time, and write down your observations of how you are affected over the course of a few hours. Always test each product separately before combining things.

Also, pheromones don’t have the ability to create long-term physical changes. The self-effects only last for the life of the molecule (usually a few hours or so), and they can be less effective as your body builds up a tolerance. A tolerance can be broken by taking a few days off of using pheromones.

I hope this helps, and let me know if you’d like any more guidance.

Thank you very much. I appreciate all guidance and input. This will confirm strength with me when I purchase product. I try to be careful with things I do and try to find alternatives to prescribed medications so I really appreciated the warning of side effects per se the possible benefits.

Again thank you
