True Hope for Bipolar Patients

...an extensive database of biochemical data from more than 1500 patients they have treated for bipolar disorder. The PTC express their concern that many nutritional treatments offered are highly generalized and can produce unpleasant effects. Their research has found that a subgroup of bipolar disorder patients are deficient in arachidonic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid. They have developed three primary biochemical classifications of bipolar disorder as follows (written by and printed with permission of co-founder and chief-scientist of the PTC, William Walsh, PhD): 1. Undermethylation: This condition is innate & is characterized by low levels of serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, high whole blood histamine and elevated absolute basophils. This population has a high incidence of seasonal allergies, OCD tendencies, perfectionism, high libido, sparse body hair, and several other characteristics. They usually respond well to methionine, SAMe, calcium, magnesium, omega-3 essential oils (DHA & EPA), B-6, inositol, and vitamins A, C, and E. They should avoid supplements containing folic acid. In severe cases involving psychosis, the dominant symptom is usually delusional thinking rather than hallucinations. They tend to speak very little & may sit motionless for extended periods. They may appear outwardly calm, but suffer from extreme internal anxiety. 2. Overmethylation: This condition is the biochemical opposite of undermethylation. It is characterized by elevated levels of serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, low whole blood histamine, and low absolute basophils. This population is characterized by the following typical symptoms: Absence of seasonal, inhalent allergies, but a multitude of chemical or food sensitivities, high anxiety which is evident to all, low libido, obsessions but not compulsions, tendency for paranoia and auditory hallucinations, underachievement as a child, heavy body hair, hyperactivity, "nervous" legs, and grandiosity. They usually respond well to folic acid, B-12, niacinamide, DMAE, choline, manganese, zinc, omega-3 essential oils (DHA and EPA) and vitamins C and E, but should avoid supplements of methionine, SAMe, inositol, TMG and DMG. 3. Pyrrole Disorder: This condition, also called pyroluria, is a genetic stress disorder associated with severe mood swings, high anxiety, and depression. The biochemical signature of this disorder includes elevated urine kryptopyrroles, a double deficiency of zinc and B-6, and low levels of arachidonic acid. Pyrolurics are devastated by stresses including physical injury, emotional trauma, illness, sleep deprivation, etc. Symptoms include sensitivity to light and loud noises, tendency to skip breakfast, dry skin, abnormal fat distribution, rage episodes, little or no dream recall, reading disorders, underachievement, histrionic behaviors, and severe anxiety. They usually respond quickly to supplements of zinc, B-6, Primrose Oil, and augmenting nutrients.

p.s. I'm currently using; B6, zinc, B3 niacinamide, vitamin C, B 100's, magnesium, and a multi vitamin daily. It has really helped me so far. I also try to eat OK. I buy decent vitamins online in as high a number count as I can. This way they many last for 3 months at a time and I save on shipping. Feel like I have to pass on the information in hopes it helps just one other person out there. ;D

@blakkorchyd With the nutritional path, the nutrients have to build up in the system. It took about 8 months before I noticed a difference. I used a juicer, best way to flood the body with nutrients--all the vitamins and nutrients go right to the bloodstream.

@blakkorchyd Do you think inositol can help people with OCD? I can take these medicines with collateral effects,vitamins could help me?

[blakkorchyd]

@prokopton Yeah, I've heard a lot about the juicing and am really curious about it. With the supplements I actually started feeling a difference in less than a month with mega-dosing the vitamins. As I understand it, it can take 1 to 3 months of heavy supplementation to figure out if it's going to help you. For me personally I'd rather take the building blocks my body needs for life than some patented drug. There's a doc out there called Food Matters that's really interesting along this line.

This study is behind the game. Search here and online for the works of: Abram Hoffer & Joan Mathews Larson. There are a few videos on youtube but they've also written books. Joan Mathews Larson's book; Depression Free Naturally offers the nitty-gritty of supplementation for all types of mood and brain chemical disorders. The tendency for this to be caused by a genetic disorder called pyroluria is high and tends to run in families. Check it out and good luck!

Thse people killed themselves because of the drugs

@madmanatsea

To see how Powerful these nutrients are to your brain, google the following:

"Thiamine brain"

"magnesium brain"

"folate brain"

"fish oil brain"

Now just for fun, google: "geodon brain" or "HALOPERIDOL BRAIN"

[madmanatsea]

What supplement did they take?

I know the brain, heart, etc., get Messed Up when you get deficient in magnesium so that and B-vitamins and fish oil should do it to have a HEALTHY BRAIN in 6 months or so............It took you years of doing drugs, Insomnia, Poor diet, Stress, alcohol, Caffeine, etc., to MESS YOUR BRAIN UP so taking magnesium, B-100, and Fish oil will FIX IT IF YOU DO IT PRONTO because once your brain is broken it is broken!
