IMHO, I think the way you are dosing and holding on to doses may be why you're getting frustrated. I would not hold a dose for more than 5 days unless there is a complication with your schedule or the cycle is all blues and greens. The longer Buddy is at a dose, the more opportunity you give him for his body to regard the numbers associated with that dose as "normal." It becomes harder to overcome the resistance to going into lower numbers. In addition, I'm not sure that I would fatten the dose the way you have been. I'd have been increasing in 0.25u amounts.
To lay this out, Buddy was at 0.75u for about a month, 0.85u for 10 days, 0.95 for 8 days, and 1.0u for 6 days. It's taken about 7 weeks to go from 0.75u to 1.0u when you could have raised the dose by that amount in 3 - 5 days.
I'd raise Buddy's dose.
