[|Human|] I am a 34 year old male who has symptoms of bipolar disorder. I observed while on a low carbohydrate diet that all of my bipolar symptoms seem to have gone away. I am having troubling excepting a diagnosis of gluten intolerance or diabetes since my blood sugars are not remarkable or irregular. I have read about some fungus and other diseases which may attack the CNS by exploiting the sugars from carbohydrates. The manic episodes from the carbohydrates are GONE (no racing thoughts) please help me I am a school teacher who is unemployed now because the only medicine which allowed me to control the racing thoughts was lithium. It is hard to be effective when medicated to such a degree. Please share any thoughts or suggestions.
[|AI|]  Hi. I had gone through your query. Bipolar disorder is defined by sudden changes in mood along with irritability. It has two phases. 1. Depressive phase. 2. manic phase. Line of treatment is different for both phases. Diet like you mentioned has very limited role. It has no effectiveness as medicines. Lithium is gold standard molecule that working in both phase of bipolar disorder. Mood stabilizer is the choice of medicines in these conditions. It can be treated with medicines like lithium/sodium valproate/lamotrigibe/olanzapine but choice of Chat Doctor. So consult properly and get further help. Thank you. I hope I have answered your query.
