I thought my fish oil was causing some stomach problems..so I didn't take it last night. Well I woke up today feeling worse than I have in months... in a full-blown dysphoric hypomania. I know my body very well...and the fish oil is a MAJOR part of being a mood stabilizer. We are also looking at increasing my Zyprexa/Olanzipine to 15mg. I realized today how vastly important my meds and supps keep me feeling well.

Yeah, fish oil helps me too. I notice if I miss a day or two.

Lack of fish oil is probably not the cause of your hypomania. Even though you may have skipped a dose, rest assured the fish oil has already soaked your brain, and being a lipid hangs around for a lot longer than a day.

Fish oil really acts to help depression also or just bipolar? Phillipa

I wonder if fish oil is just good for the brain period,seeing that it needs fat for energy.i definately feel better w/fish oil,and even after eating salmon,i feel great the next day.

Seriously? I have it here and stopped it. The compounding RX bought it in the Pharmacist also takes it said you need to develop some enzyme for it to work takes about a month took it that long? Didn't feel a thing. Think have some left will add to capsules tonight. Phillipa
