Bipolar also

Seroquel and lamotrigine have been a solid combo for 3 years now.

For me it's all about sleep.

Can't imagine sprinkling hormones like trt into the balance . Even though I'd like to go trt vitor physique mode like yesterday

It's not so bad when you acknowledge it and take your meds

Unmedicated deniers I feel bad for their friends and family.

Ur good

For me meds are 100% necessary. I'm sure some are capable.... a select few but not me. I tried.

I take a mood stabilizer which I never notice I'm on "it" or anything.... but it's there like insurance. And then the other scrip basically puts you to sleep. Tranquilizer. Regulating sleep is the most important Imo. I take it 9pm and wake up hungover everyday from it but it's better than not sleeping and becoming a whacko for 2-7 days at a time.

From the way i was to now ..... what was a few conversations and 3 pills a day being the difference. It's Night and day for all involved family friends etc.

Mental illness stigma really sucks.

I had an ex gf who had bipolar disorder too, she basically took the same shit. a tranquilizer and anti-psychotic. u should get your testosterone and E2 checked. I read a study that showed people with bipolar disorder tend to have estrogen issues.

no m8 LOL

your doc can do it. Testosterone and Estradiol. from what I've been told they give you a range between around 100-1000 for total testosterone. you want to be in the 800 range preferably, but a lot of docs won't prescribe TRT unless you're under that range like 90 or less, which is basically the testosterone levels of a woman
 
so just go to my reg doc and request it

It shall be done

probably our sedentary lifestyle as well. another thing I read was that good posture is beneficial for testosterone production. we can guarantee that posture is getting worse due to the ways we sit, watching TV, using the computer, cellphones, and video games

Lack of sunlight , Lack of exercise ECT ECT . You've got to really make a concerted effort and make specific choices to live healthily in the modern world.

Sunlight exposure huge. Did you know that the farther away you get from the equator the higher the incidence of Multiple sclerosis is ? We basically spend the bulk our days in a cave ( office ) and destroy our sleep / circadian rhythm with artificial lights at night.
