Thousands on nutritional suppliments, you do know that you only need a finite amount of nutrition and if you eat well as you say, you don't need more. He'll some nutrients are harmful in higher dosages.
I'm sorry I don't want to be argumentative. I just fear some people, I'm not saying you, but some people, overuse nutritional supplements because they fall victim to charlatans peddling snake oil working in marketing. Good nutrition is important,very important. But generally if you're eating well, generally healthy,and not elderly, it isn't very hard to get more than adequate amounts of essential nutrients for the body to function at it's best. I don't know what you take, some drugs, mainly I'm thinking of nitrous oxide, impair the bodies ability to process some vitamins like b12, others cause you to eat less, either of which could validly warrant nutritional supplements. I don't know your specific circumstances or reasons so I certainly can't say taking nutritional supplements isn't a perfectly sensible decision, I just hope it is. Too many people fall victim to so many snake oil peddling opportunists.
No not everyone will want to help, and many more won't be able too, but there are many compassionate people here who would want to help however they can.
You seem like a smart guy, which is more what I meant by abnormal. You see, to me, I think being abnormal is a good thing. I generally dislike what I would call normal people, or perhaps a more accurate description would be people who obsess with being seen to be normal and value normal materialistic things. To me, normal is not the same as good. The abnormal, people with real problems, addictions, depression, poverty, or quite likely in your case, above average intelligence, are often the best kind of people ive met. I would argue that intelligence itself is abnormal and that that's a good thing. But it often means unfortunately people like us who aren't the norm find ourselves feeling isolated and alone. By definition, most people will be normal people, and the abnormal will generally find it difficult to find other people who understand them. I tend to think it's better to accept, and indeed embrace our abnormalities and stop seeking what society tells us we should want. I think people who find themselves unlike the mainstream will be much better serves and much happier in rejecting the established norms and finding their own kind of people. Embracing their differences as often either superior, or providing greater insight into human kind, society. And that our closest friends will be best found among other people who share similar differences.
I would even go so far as to say I would feel somewhat insulted by being called normal. I didn't always feel this way, like almost everyone, I wanted to be normal for a long time in my life, it took my a long time to realize that what I wanted wasn't worth having. I felt rejected by mainstream society for a long time and eventually I found that accepting, and eventually preferring to be one of the outcasts was where I would find acceptance of my own situation, and over time I increasingly came to see that the norm, the desires of the majority, were all things I rejected, and so it's little wonder I have little in common with them.
So my suggestion that you might be abnormal shouldn't be taken as negative, I certainly don't mean it that way. It's a compliment to me if anything. To me normal is to want the material, to want status, to want admiration not for what is truly good about you but for your material wealth, status, power, etc. Rather than to want to be liked and accepted because of what to me is all that really counts for a persons value. Which is if you are a good person and want to help people. I admire the bum on the street that helps out the other bums far more than I value how much money someone makes or their job or their wealth or their status.
