eat enough. avoid pufa. try and get regular sleep schedule. keep smoking cigs and drinking coffee or energy drinks or whatever if you want to. listen to how you feel and don't stop evolving. bonus points if you start supplementing thyroid or taking progesterone, biggest needle movers in way of reducing stress hormone for me

Substances stopped affecting me altogether. It felt like my nervous system had completely crashed. I could drink half a liter of vodka in one go and barely feel it (while still being in complete control). I tried using extremely strong nicotine pouches and felt nothing. Life became empty, and I had zero natural dopamine production. This is when I believe I completely entered freeze mode.
It could be quite simple. I've made myself mildly hypovolemic to this kind of effect quite a few times 'experimentally'.

It doesn’t sound fancy but just eating regular balanced meals throughout the day is the main way out. Reverse diet to find a good high maintenance calorie and be consistent.
You don’t have to rely on reheating potatoes all the time either. Add in more sugar sources like from fruits, dried and juiced.
