I don’t speak about this much but for years I struggled with severe depression. I tried every antidepressant available and none of them helped. One psychiatrist said I had “treatment resistant depression” which just meant that they had no idea how to help me. When I changed my diet to low carb it all began to change. This was about 20 years ago now. I turns out that there was a way to treat my depression and it was by changing the food that I ate. While what most people saw was my weight loss, what I saw also was the radical change in my mood. I wish all people suffering from “mental illness” would be given information and help with dietary change.
