this was great, it really put everything i had learned over the years in one hr. wish i had started with this. i lived with a narcissist for years and i'm an essential worker in a grocery store, so the last 5 years have been hell. this really explains what i've been going through and i have made strides in the last year, but i can make more now. and ashwagandha really helps with mood and energy.
I must say, this clarifies and confirms So much, it will simply save the viewer years of inefficient living, slower recovery, and wandering in doubt. Otherness, self-knowledge and environment are just such a fascinating field, especially in the info era! --- Thank you ---
I am now in the recovery phase and finally have a handle on it, I was over exercising, under eating and not getting enough carbs which resulted in several nutritional deficiencies etc (thought I was being healthy at the time) unknowingly I was putting my body in a catabolic state which will cause the body to stay awake and alert, as it is meant to. Think about what you are doing and what messages you are sending to your central nervous system via the way you eat exercise and live...you might be putting your body in survival mode and its simply doing what its meant to be doing. It took me a long time to work out, I had put myself in a form of metabolic burn out and stopped sleeping. I did a sleep study, sleep hygiene, saw various sleep experts...they all missed this and the treatments offered were not relevant for what I was experiencing. I hope this helps some people out there, it can be very frustrating particularly when you don't know why it is happening. I rested, stopped doing intense cardio, ate regular clean balanced meals, lifted weights with ample recovery and focused on getting in an a more anabolic dominant state.
Hi! Definitely helped! Thanks a lot. I’m similar to you, also with severe insomnia and nothing has fixed it yet after years of trying almost everything… will try that
Wow this is all what happened to me except I kept going on and on with it for years. The over exercise and under eating recked me and now I can’t exercise at all. I wish I had known better
@@sodas32 same here! It’s really important to listen to the signs your body gives you. I didn’t at the time and regret it. It’s good you can atleast do light exercise. I’m not able to at this point. Focus on rest and recovery as well as increasing nutrient dense calories that’s what I’m working on now.
This is an amazing & realistic video, that packs digestible (no pun intend) information - very informative thank you Doc Snipes for this much needed info
To get better and no be myself my own dr because I can’t find one that understand what’s happening in my physical and mental body thank you so much for being so clear it makes me realize why my life changed before and now everything you said is really how I am feeling
@@DocSnipes thank you for opening my mind and really clear me what is being on for such a long time and not have a clue more than 30 years half of my life and a had support for family friends and drs included everybody were trying to help the best they could but nobody had a clue how to get t the root and I had quiropractors the best, acupuntrist, and natural drs besides de regular one everybody together to help my body to work so that pscologist helping no to fall into a depression but that was before long time ago now I have to fence for myself lot of people died, others moved out the city al my connections gone but now I know what and where to go besides I am going to start working with myself too I believe a lot in Chinese medicine
Dr I am suffering for years about adrenal fatigue nobody found the cause but I found a dr that helped got through that phase now I have again and I just found out last year about the adrenal I was depressed because my body was so tired that I cried just to think about I made through but like I said I have again I can’t find any dr who believe it and I have most of the symptoms you said but not a completely burn out, I changed my diet but my chronic anxiety, stress and insomnia is killing me I had make a lot of change myself but the reality is I feel bright and my mind clears at night as long as I remember never needed more than 5 hours of sleep and I was find but I got sick and from that day until today my life changed forever. Now besides all this I am suffering from long COVID and my immune system is very low and nerve system out of wack and really looking for someone to understand all this and help me to get
I also had years of issues, especially in left stomach area. Then, one day,boom... it all went downhill, with extreme stomach pain. I'm still trying to get better through diet. I'm very fatigued and cannot work. I'm just realizing that my adrenals probably couldn't take any more coffee, stress, lack of sleep, and wrong diet
Thankyou, I know I have it and its a bummer but I also have helped myself heal using ALL of this , what I did not do was prevent it from happening again. Very frustrating but lesson learned , Just shows you have to stay on top of it manage stress vigilantly if one is sensitive to adrenal fatigue.
Surprised nobody mentions secondary adrenal fatigue caused by corticoids like Prednisone. Had an adverse reaction to the Covid vaccine, thrombocytopenia, had to have up to 60 mg of prednisone for about a month tapering off according to doctors instructions. That was in March 2021 and I still haven’t been able to get my adrenals to function properly. Aswaganda helps, but it is taking a long time for my adrenals to normalize. I’m surprised doctors do not address this issue at all.
I would like to to suggest you to buy a supplement specific for the adrenal I am taking Cortitrax I buy them in Amazon I have tried several and this is the one who helped me more also there are other for adrenal support, the first one help to keep the balance of cortisol and it takes several weeks but you can get it they said 2 but at the beginning you can started slow to see if you don’t feel any side effects and gradually increase the amount. I am doing this myself I haven’t found anyone who can help me so I took it in my hands to see if something can help me besides taking magnolia bark, ashawanda doesn’t work for me I hope this information can help you
@@JohnQPublic345 Yes I am also taking a supplement with bovine adrenal to help me sleep and because I am suffering from dehydration even taking electrolytes my energy level goes up and down all day and night this after COVID is incredibly almost nobody knows about this problem and people suffering not knowing what or why and how to get better and the only drs who knows this are so expensive at least myself can’t afford them and they let you to self medicate there’s not other way
what type of doctor should i see if i think i have an adrenal gland issue? about 10 years ago i binged on speed for like 1 year to the point where i had to go to the psych ward for psychosis. i am totally clean now but i suffer what i can only describe like a chronic internal anxiety/agitation. its so hard to describe my symptoms to my GP without him thinking its just anxiety. i do NOT suffer from any mental anxiety or depression, im actually a quite calm happy person aside from this physical feeling i have constantly.
I have had good luch with Osteopathic Physicians. osteopathic.org/what-is-osteopathic-medicine/ They tend to have a more holistic view. Perhaps, a professional counselor to work with emotional / mental side as the medical doctor helps with any physical issues. You can find other therapists via Psychology Today search: allceus.com/Psychology_Today_Therapist_Search If you are interested in Virtual EMDR therapy: allceus.com/Virtual_EMDR Wishing you peace, health, and happiness.
I’m not joking (and adrenal fatigue could totally be the cause) but this could very well be (at least partly) demonic. Drugs open up huge doorways to the spirit realm and often demons come in and latch themselves to your body/soul, and stay long after you’ve stopped. Repent and pray to Jesus for deliverance / seek a deliverance ministry. Hard drugs will intensely affect you on a spiritual level.
@@anaflower5865 thank you for that, i believe it, when i had the psychosis and was hearing voices (11 years ago), i always thought there was something more to it than just me going crazy. even to this day i think there may have been a spiritual component to it all, because the voices were telling me things i couldnt have known, like what song was about to come on the radio. i do believe in jesus but i'm not so much for christianity religion. i def. took your message to heart. thank you.
Please, if you have a minute, help me to understand one of my symptoms. I have many symptoms of AF and going to check if I have it. It would explain all my suffering for years and all the strange symptoms. But the strangest from all of them is that my brain gets extremely tired after a mea for several hours. Like I was poisoned, it's a torture, so I eat only once a day. And i would understand if this was happening after sweet food or some fast carbs, but I can tolerate fruits, soda, honey and many vegetables. But after the food that considered healthy, like meat, eggs, bread, potato etc I feel like it's poison for my brain. And the larger the portion is the longer my suffering lasts. The only thing that helps this to go away faster, is a nap. If I'm lucky to fall asleep, after waking up it starts to get better much faster. But if I'm trying not to sleep and cope with, it can last for many hours and gets worse. Can this be explained by adrenal disfunction? Which element can cause this after meal, so the nap could help with it
@@meekellbenford4478 About 2 or 3 days after taking it, I start feeling alive again. I take it until I feel jittery (might be a month or two) and then go off of it. When I start feeling dead again, I start it again. The naturopath said the the times in between where I don't need it should start getting longer and longer over time.
@@DocSnipesHi Dr snipes I love your videos. My adrenal fatigue is SO severe from a decade of over exercise and starvation. Some days I feel like I’m even dying. I have all of the symptoms of the adrenal fatigue hpa axis is it even possible to heal?
How come half the modern population is clinically exhausted then? Sure, other issues may be responsible for a certain percentage but how come it's so hard to imagine that a tiny organ the size of a walnut can get fatigued in a chronic fight/flight/freeze high cortisol environment? I'm buying into this epidemic. It just makes sense...and quite naturally, I want an explanation for my personal suffering ;)
I think I have adrenal fatigue from years of daily masterbating. Dr. Can you please confim adrenal fatigue from excessive masterbation? If old appreciate If you respond
I've been researching adrenal exhaustion for some time. This is the best one I've ever seen
Thanks so much! Thanks for watching.

They're OK
I take bio identical progesterone and it helped a lot with my menstrual cramps and bleeding
