Adrenal fatigue
Adrenal fatigue is real.
We have prediabetes which can be addressed prior to receiving a full diagnosis of diabetes so why can’t we have adrenal fatigue and address that prior to reaching adrenal failure?
We live in a very stressed world that WILL tax our stress response over time. Over time cortisol (the primary adrenal hormone) can deplete causing an array of hormonal, adrenal and thyroid symptoms which can be debilitating.
Until this starts to get addressed, there is going to be so many unresolved, poorly diagnosed illnesses, that may be directly associated with the adrenals.
The medical community needs to start taking this seriously because so many people are self navigating without s...

My daughter has worked very hard to obtain her BSN degree. She is married to a wonderful marine who, like many, deploys a lot. So she mostly had to get through her nursing program on her own. She lived 3 hours from any other family. On top of that, she has a precious son. It was a struggle, but she did it. On April 30, 2015, she was pinned. This ceremony is for new nurses prior to graduating. T...

    I literally left the ‘Benzo Community’ after continuously getting a hard time for explaining to people within it how adding other ‘things’ into the mix whilst can cause more problems. Nobody listens. Then… they end up where you now are… 🤷🏼‍♂️ But for saying such in advance, I became ‘the bad guy’. So now I just don’t bother anymore.

    Help! Our daughter has been ill for the past 2 1/2 years. Has been in therapy and is under the care of a psychiatrist during this time. She has been taking several types of medication to deal with severe anxiety and depression. She worked in a speciality children's hospital and holds her masters in social work. She lost her employment at the hospital due to severe anxiety. She was put on Gabepenten recently and I am am so concerned. She is not getting better and I am so concerned of the side effects associated with the Gabepenten. She is 33 years old and she is desperate. I am so worried and I don't know how to help her. Please comment. Thank you.

    I left a super long rambly comment but I’ll just write a paragraph. As an ex heroin addict who’s dabbled quite a bit in benzos, I’m appalled by how gaba drugs are prescribed so much to non addicts who have no clue what they’re getting into. Like I said my main drugs were opiates and I’d take being addicted to and withdrawing from opiates any day of the week over benzos. Like other commenters said the gaba probably stopped the benzo healing process from healing completely but gabapentin is a weird ass drug I hope to be off soon and videos like yours make me want to get off asap. Hope you’re doing well and fully healed, I know what it’s like to go through WD after WD and it’s 100x worse when you don’t know what to expect, the medical system is completely broken. Godbless

    Hello, I took 3 and a half years Klonopin 1 mg, I have been free for 12 months after a decrease of only 5 days. I have many crazy symptoms, paranoia (I think that all people look at me), agoraphobia, depersonalization, derealization, a lot of anxiety, tachycardia, sensitive to noise, blurred vision, fear of everything, paranoid intrusive obsessive thoughts. ¿Is it normal that at 12 months I still have all these symptoms? I rarely leave my house, because every time I go out, I think that all the people are looking at me, this is very hard, it makes me want to cry sometimes, it seems that this hell never ends. I want to leave my house without being afraid and without thinking that all the people are looking at me, this never happened to me.

    It sounds like Gabapentin interfered with your body’s ability to heal completely from the Benzo (since it increases Gaba), and what you are feeling is actually a continuation of unresolved benzo withdrawal. I’ve come to this conclusion from personal experience. Good luck, and hope this helps.

      Gaba is such a weird drug, alcohol completely makes up for it for me but I still feel a weird half withdrawal when I take Xanax. I initially took gaba after a surgery and then started using it to get off drinking everyday for a couple weeks and to be upfront I did abuse it for awhile cause it’s over the counter where I am and went to taking a really high dose cause the medical sites I was on really downplayed how addictive it is. I started tapering from a super high dose and was fine until I almost halved it and woke up one day after going down too fast and felt like I was dope sick which scared me and even when I took it again at the halved dose I felt off for a couple days. Now when I take it, it makes me feel high but I have too much to do to do a more rapid taper. Luckily I’ve only been on it at most a month a half but at this point I might just take a couple shots at night as part of my dose and rapidly taper cause I really don’t want to be on this drug. My withdrawals really aren’t that bad except for that one day but I’d rather be on a drug that I know what it will do rather than this weird ass drug that’s wildly unpredictable and has horror stories all over the internet

    Doctor Isabella Wentz MD PDH has supplements on her website to for adrenal support. She focuses on Hashimoto's thyroid condition and her supplement line is called Rootcology. She has also written a couple of books with self-help for healing hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's. She also sends out very informative emails and you can reply to them with questions and you might get an answer. Maybe this information can be some help to you in healing your adrenals.

Take 300 mg. gabapentin for essential tremor 1-3 daily and thought it could help me w/draw and sleep better but your video and others on sites make me concerned about the gabapentin. Oh boy oh boy. Drugs are not always the best route in life. I will pray you have an easy/easier and complete recovery. You're a great person.

    My story is almost the exact same. Years of benzo withdrawals that were a living hell. Finally thought I'd give another medication a chance and tried gabapentin, only been on it for a week and already feeling panicked and shaking and shaky vision when I miss even an hour of a dose. Stopping tomorrow and not looking forward to this at all. Trying to stay positive. I'm heartbroken. I hope you're doing a lot better :( !!! These drugs are so dangerous. It blows my mind.

    • @stubmow1567
      @stubmow1567 3 года назад

      @@BabyChili1 I would avoid gabapentin if I were you, i can't see how it would be helpful - more hurtful than anything. Prozac MIGHT help but honestly in my experience nothing really helped the benzo withdrawals but time. I will say it does get better and your brain will heal itself you just have to have faith and let time do the healing. I found breathing exercises to be helpful, as well as hot showers/baths, calming teas, and CBD products. I also found omega-3 supplements and magnesium to be helpful as well as ginger and tumeric teas. When I say helpful though I mean helpful to get through the shittiness, nothing but time will take it away completely. You're going to be okay- just remember that it gets better and won't be like this forever. And a word of personal advice (although please also follow up with ur doctor as I am not one), throwing more medications at a chemically induced problem just makes it harder for your brain to heal and gives you more medications to come off of afterwards. Trust yourself and do your own research on things, i find a lot of doctors really have no idea how certain medications work (which is kinda scary tbh). I wish you all the best!!! You've got this.

First time I got off gabapentin, I had zero issues. But the second time? I had to go back on. Third time? I was kindled and it SUCKED. I hope to god your drugs don’t turn on you and if they do.. we will forgive you even though you are a jerk to those who suffer. In reality, you are in denial about your own drugs. You are in Lala land. Rather than take precautions yourself, you judge others. That pink gabapentin cloud doesn’t last forever.. I PROMISE.

Everyone is different but I know you'll get there, man. I'm around 15 months off and feel so much better. Covid also was kind of good for me considering everyone was stuck at home anyway. Unfortunately I can't drink the way I could but I suppose that's also fortunate. At 25 it seems like that's all anyone wants to do at social gatherings
