Sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds, b-complex pills... though those never seem to have enough in them, when I can I'm gonna get a big jar of hard to find pure B1. I'm not sure if yeast extract is a good source? That would be a bit easier to get hold of.

Part of the problem is that B1's most readily available only as an additive in mainly wheat flour based products, which I have never eaten much of, and explains how I ended up in this pickle, piling a litre of beer a day on top of it, which is well known to burn B vitamins in general.

I don't know what else is involved but Wernicke-Korsakoff's main cause is B1 deficiency, and the fact I am getting fairly chronic double vision says that I've probably already got a thinning of hippocampus tissue already starting too. I certainly am noticing more and more how my memory is fucked. It is fortunate that I am getting a severe symptom that directly interferes with my ability to work otherwise I might keep on going until I forget how to write code otherwise.
