How I build clinical & emotional support & manage medications
I went on the keto diet because I was pre-diabetic. After the mental health improvements, I decided that I didn't need the medication anymore. My psychiatrist was not supportive of this, so I researched the safest way to taper off myself. My prescriber was not in support of tapering off the Lamotrigine, so I used a 3-month structured plan and kept a daily journal of mental health symptoms. After I got off of the medication, my motor coordination improved (I stopped putting cracks in all of our glassware). My focus also improved. There were no complications.
