BASE: made me financially and mentally worse?

[Shannon]

If the response to a script for becoming a successful entrepreneur is less success - and we must remember that causation is not correlation, so it isn't certain that it was caused by base - there is only one explanation.

Goal reversal... which is one of the two most extreme forms of resistance. It would indicate that you, subconsciously, are so abjectly terrified of executing the script that you'd rather reverse the effect in an effort to "run away".

I've seen this with weight loss too, in rare cases.

so what would be the best course of action if one faces this? to stop or power though?

To remove the root cause (fear).

Which suggests an extended run of E2.
