Why would NAC and Vitamin C erode my depression?
Why would NAC and Vitamin C erode my depression?
I've been taking these two together consistently for two weeks after seeing a post about it elsewhere, my depression is slowly clearing away and I'm getting much more organised and have energy to complete tasks.
Was it purely inflammation causing it?

NAC helps with compulsion. Maybe a lot of your negative, depressive thoughts were more compulsive than you realized? And the NAC helped break the cycle...
level 2
It also regulates glutamate which plays a huge role in depression. This is why ketamine is such an important breakthrough for depression because it also affects glutamate.
level 2
Which brand of NAC do you take?
level 1
I do think it would be about the anti-inflammation caused by both, if that's your case. I notice it too, but I would cycle NAC as it does have some negatives.
level 2
Would you mind elaborating on those negatives? Just started taking NAC a couple of weeks ago and curious.
level 1
I notice good things from vitamin c on mood, but NAC did nothing in that regard just gave me more energy.
level 1
vitamin c = more bh4 = more neurotransmitters but no way to tell if that's why. I have gotten literally psychotic off of megadoses of vitamin c, but that was in conjunction with methylfolate
level 2

You can't make a claim like that and expect it not to be story time :D
level 2
Is any vitamin C supplement fine, or are some more effective than others?
level 2
whoa, did they give you a protocol to fix it? i think i might have that too, I feel straight GABA and get crazy foggy headed from any grain flower i try.
level 2
I'm guessing NAC crossing the blood brain barrier is a bad thing? How did you know to check your BBB? I hadn't heard of a way to check the integrity of it.
level 1
My guess it's coincidence - depression comes and goes for some people by itself
