Its a great combination, except for the following side effects (luckily there are only a few of them)
  • I drink water....a LOT
  • ... therefore I go to the bathroom a LOT ( boss once commented on it) [emoji58]
  • During times of high stress I find it hard to control anger (shouting and all)
  • ...and I cut [emoji58]

I'm trying to work on the last two.

Anyone else on this combo who can share stories / mitigation strategies?

Cheers
