In reply to Fish oil WORSENING bipolar???, posted by goofeygalpal on December 7, 2005, at 1:21:02
Hi
I'm no expert but I have rapid bipolar and have been taking fish oils for about 2 months? now.
One brand of omega suppliment made me really angry and irritable so I changed to the fish oil in a bottle .
It can take up to 12 weeks to build up the body's stores of the long chain fatty acids ( I assume this is the omega 3 )
Also it is advisable to take omega 6 with the omega 3. Eving Primrose oil comtains omega 6 so I take the two together.
I have only noticed the change with premenstral disorder also my skin is a lot better.
I wouldn't say it is a dramatic change for bipolar but it works well for my serious premenstral disorders.
