My life could be a lot different… (and so could yours)
Finding the medical ketogenic diet and metabolic therapies is changing my life. While I'm ecstatic and grateful, there is a part of me that wonders how my life could have been different had I discovered this treatment sooner, or had it been offered to me from the medical system. Or rather how much suffering and anguish stemming from my mental illness that I could have avoided.
Ultimately, I'm grateful for the life experience I've gotten the way my life has played out thus far. But if sharing information about this treatment method could help others avoid those periods of pain and suffering resulting from mental illness, well that would be incredible.
