At what rate of use did it become a problem?

I'm basically asking, do you think once every 2-3 weeks will be an issue? I think something about relying on it, even at 2-3 weeks, might make it an issue long term. But I'm not sure.

It doesn't affect me the same way as it did 10 years ago when i first tried. Back then it was euphoria and now it's just slight concentration. Which is ideal for working. But the euphoria is mostly gone.

Yes the euphoria is the first thing to go, got to wait quite a while for that "magic" to come back.

I was using it daily for about a year or two, and it really helped but also caused issues with my personal life, relationship and so on.

I think you're probably ok, keep in mind it is a neurotoxic drug so you'll want to mitigate that, and your usage as much as possible, antioxidants, not overheating and that sort of thing.
