[quote=Anonymous]It's not until the last year that I have realized how much my diet caused or exacerbated my depression. And I've spent 20+ years trying to treat it. I started intermittent fasting thanks to some DCUM posts about Dr. Jason Fung, The Obesity Code, and insulin resistance. I'm a hardcore carb addict so I knew I couldn't give up carbs but I could fast. And fasting has helped me lose 60 lbs (I have maybe 50 more to do). Now that I've built that strength, I'm eating lower carb and have even managed a full week or two here or there in ketosis. Amazing, amazing powerful moods I'm in when I'm fueled by ketone bodies rather than glucose!! If you're willing to make a change, so some reading on the ketogenic diet for depression or on intermittent fasting. I've been there, and I've gotten better...I believe you can, too! Also "Why We Get Fat" by Gary Taubes changed everything for me![/quote]
