Nutrition and Your Mental Health
What does nutrition have to do with mental health? You might be surprised to find out the truth behind what happens when a person has a nutritional deficiency.
Nutritional deficiencies can cause all sorts of psychiatric symptoms including apathy, low energy, irritability, insomnia, low energy, agitation, fatigue, concentration problems, aches and pains, weight changes, including weight loss or weight gain. Sound a lot like the symptoms of depression? The truth is the average American diet of fast food is low in vital nutrition that you need for your body to function correctly.
This isn't to say that all depression is caused by bad nutrition but it's certainly a contributing factor in many cases and poor nutrition will always make depression worse. Antidepressant drugs also do not correct nutritional problems. So if your depressed because of nutritional problems an antidepressant will only partially cover up the problem and you body still won't function correctly.

There are great many "depressed" people that are actually just hyperglycemic so they are tired all the time.
Other people exhibit mental symptoms due to toxicity.
Even in the cases where the problem isn't caused by poor nutrition, it's always exasperated by poor nutrition. If you become more physically healthy, you become more mentally healthy.
Most symptoms of "mental" illness has at least one cause that can be traced back to nutrition. Each nutrient performs a specific function on our brain and body, ie immune system, nervous system, digestive system...
I am 18 and bipolar/psychotic/anxiety and I take many pills a day. I even take a pill do deal with the side effects of another. I also take a b-12 supplement.
I try to maintain a good diet. I have been a vegetarian since I was five. I have quinoia and flaxseed almost everyday along with fruits and veggies, carbs. I try to exercise everyday.
I can't stand to be on all this medicine! I think I should draw the line because I have to take drugs to deal with other drugs!
honestly say I'm 10 times better than any medication i was ever on, and they tried me on every medication known to help bipolar at that time.
