I browsed through the forum and only found a couple of users who tried Lion’s mane with Abilify. The most clear anecdote was from @everhopeful . For him, it was mostly a negative experience.
I am looking into LM because there anecdotes of people on AP experiencing increased mental clarity and complex thoughts.
Anyone else who took Lion’s mane with Abilify? What was your experience?
I tried it with abilify apparently it helps ADHD symptoms. But it just made me more irritable. I had to get off it.
I take lions mane with Abilify. I like it it actually helps with my mood I think and depression a little bit. It’s also supposed to help the brain grow new neurons and things.
The brain’s ability to grow and form new connections typically declines with age, which may explain why mental functioning worsens in many older adults ( 2 ). Studies have found that lion’s mane mushrooms contain two special compounds that can stimulate the growth of brain cells: hericenones and erinacines ( 3 ).
