I have been on the program for 2 weeks and this is my experience too. They had me do no exercise, no sugar, no stress for 3 weeks and my heart palpitations of which I had a hundred or more a day all day long went away. Then they told me to start taking supplements and I got jittery and anxious and my heart palpitations came back full force. I have a consultation with them today and I know they are just going to tell me to take less but I am on 1/2 scoop quantum C and I still feel extra heart palpitations.
I am seriously considering going back on my ssri celexa for 6 months or so to stabilize. The last time I used the ssri and came off it, I had an extra 3 months of my body feeling great with no anxiety or heart palpitations or anything. I am thinking about doing the ssri, coming off, and then doing the supplement regimen that dr. Lam uses. Or could I just do it during ssri use? I dont understand the relationship between ssri and adrenal fatigue. There is one sources that says "ssri's slowly excavate the adrenals" but thats pretty much the only one people reference when talking negatively about it. There are actually some posts out there from smart people that chemically explain how ssri's actually help with adrenal fatigue, so idk.
