I’m truly happy for you. I hope things will only improve for you, in my estimate you will get better.

I had a dense post 3 years ago about ketogenic diet and science behind.

I am not buying that a keto diet calms schizophrenia…if you are delusinal you need to talk to your pdoc and find the meds that work for you…

Awesome! It’s nice to see someone else interested in keto. The Charlie Foundation is awesome. I work with them and they helped me get on therapeutic ketogenic diet. The dietitians there are amazing.

I am pretty familiar with keto. I do a lot of reading on it, pretty much daily. However, after a lot of digging and searching stuff out, you kind of get into a weird place where there’s no one doing what you are doing. It’s nice to see someone else who is interested in keto for psych.

It’s probably been said but good sleep, platonic enjoyable distractions, balanced simple diet and regular excersise

I went through a period where I was doing transcendental meditation, drinking very little coffee, getting about the right amount of exercise, and going to AA. My grades were very good in school, math - the basics - algebra, trigonometry, and so on - came easy to me. But I was still in anguish. Transcendental meditation didn’t take that away. I got drunk, and got a D in calculus. I was missing a lot of class. When I started drinking again my whole life fell apart.
