I'm wondering how long it took for the side-effect to occur in those that used it and if there are any other long-term side-effects I should be aware of?

I used NAC for a couple years straight with 600mg every 12 hours or 2x 600mg oral daily dose buy I don't know if I experienced anhendnoia as a side-effect as I was going through some things in life that at the time which makes it difficult to pin point whether or not it was the NAC supplements that were the problem.

If you're better now, and were worse when you were taking it, you probably are gonna want to avoid it, especially with that being a common side effect. However, on the other end of that, if you don't know that you experienced anhedonia, you probably didn't. Depression is much different, anhedonia is the complete inability to experience pleasure.
 
Okay the thing is I'm just not sure if the NAC was the cause of anhedonia but I most certainly was experiencing it.


I'm wondering if it typically takes days to occur for most people or if takes weeks for example so I can be extra aware and cautious during the time period most people experience it?
