Metabolic Collective

Hi folks! Domagoj emailed me a while back about my posting here. I currently work at Metabolic Collective, a non-profit building grassroots communities in metabolic psychiatry and neurology. We're passionate about making these therapies accessible to everyone:) Domagoj asked what I learned about metabolic therapies along my tapering journey... I think there's a lot to say. I'll just share some of the most pertinent things...

• know that metabolic therapies can be really powerful, possibly making you metabolize your meds faster & even triggering hypomania. Watch out for that with your physician, lest they should misdiagnose you.
• I skimmed the metabolic thread on this platform and I'm not sure I agree with all the tips in there. For example, I saw a note about eating even when you're not hungry to avoid skipping meals. I disagree with this. In fact, intermittent fasting can be really helpful for some people.
• metabolic therapies were not a fix-all for me. They could not make my withdrawal symptoms go away, but I think they've made my taper easier, since I've reinstated.
