What are the usual precautions for mania?

For irritability and manic symptoms, I have the following suggestions:

First, actually solve the problem.

Find out and eliminate the problems and causes that cause troubles, summarize and accumulate experience and lessons, and improve quality and ability. You can also ask for help and work together to solve problems.

Second, think about the problem scientifically.

Looking at the problem from the perspective of long-term, development, and change (all troubles will pass), we must grasp the problem comprehensively, systematically, and in connection, analyze the problem in two, and see the negative side as well as the positive side. Don't worry about the little things in front of you.

Third, release emotional stress.

The specific methods are: deep breathing, outdoor activities, sports (it is recommended to be light-hearted), talking, chatting, outings, traveling, listening to songs, singing, reading humor, emotional intelligence, etiquette books, etc.

Fourth, improve self-control.

Set high ideals, set short-term goals, and follow the (time) plan. Usually develop the habit of rational thinking, rigorous life, thinking twice, keeping promises (including promises to oneself), and reflecting and introspecting (including writing checks).

Fifth, see a psychiatrist.

If the situation is serious, you should see a psychologist for systematic treatment and conditioning. I believe that there will be something to gain.

Exercising self-management skills is the same as exercising your body, the more you practice, the stronger you get. I hope you will consciously strengthen your training in this area in the future.

Pay attention to the light diet.

It's okay to exercise.

Keep your emotions in check and don't get excited.

No smoking, drinking, etc.

1. Avoid caffeinated foods.

Patients should avoid stimulant foods such as coffee, cola, tea, chocolate, and alcohol. Also avoid sugar, dairy, and foods with added chemicals and colors.

2. Eat more vegetables.

The diet should include vegetables, fruits, stone fruits, seeds, legumes. Grains such as whole wheat are a good choice, but don't eat too much bread. Eat white fish and turkey twice a week.

3. Supplement nutrients.

Magnesium. The dosage is based on the product label, and studies have shown that magnesium can replace lithium as a drug for mania to deal with the continuous change of the condition. It's non-toxic***.

L-taurine. Dosage 500 mg, 3 times a day. Take with 50 mg of vitamin B6 and 100 mg of vitamin C for better absorption. Taurine deficiency can lead to hyperactivity, anxiety, and poor brain function.

L-tyrosine. Dosage 500mg, 2 times a day, on an empty stomach, add vitamins B6 and C for easy absorption. It is an important substance for depression and can stabilize mood changes. Amino acids are important substances for this disease, especially bovine bile amino acids and tyrosine.
