@DavidPS

Thanks for the welcome!

I'm surprised to learn that CO2 is anti-inflammatory, even having been familiar with some of its other great properties.

The pension article is absolutely wild.

@DavidPS said in Aspirin for Bipolar (or other mood issues):

I am not clear about your total daily amount of aspirin. Dr. Peat recommended taking Vitamin K to protect against bleeding and other effects of prolonged aspirin use.

From what I have researched, it seems that 1mg of K2 per every 325mg of Aspirin seems to be the recommendation, does that sound correct?

I started taking aspirin in a depressive state of despair after recovering from a manic period that resulted in psychosis. I didn't want to take the prescribed anti-psychotics due to my horrible experiences with them in the past.

So far, I've experienced a significant stabilization of my mood and easier ability to manage feelings of guilt and shame (these feelings are almost gone now 2 weeks~ later).

I highly recommend experimenting with aspirin if you haven't and are struggling with a mood-related issue.

I take about 325-500mg in separated doses daily, but it seems that even lower doses could be viable.

I'm not entirely sure on the means in which the results occur from, but it's possibly inflammation related based on the small bits I've read... there may be more information than these articles out there, but this is what I found if it interests you:

I'm interested in hearing about other stories or studies any of you may have.
