Hii! So a few days ago I began a nearly fully carnivore diet. Eating Angus and 85% lean grass fed patties and I have been experiencing these crazy symptoms.
Question with no context: Do you experience what feels like our ancestral psychology of Kill, Conquer or Reproduce endlessly. From eating a carnivorous diet?
It began with this incredible energy and irritation to certain things. That was almost all consuming. Though I had to control of course.
Then this absolute arousal mixed with the want to eat more meat but also nonstop reproduce.
Beyond that I had amazing pain management. Where I got a cut that almost circled my whole arm. Barely any pain. When before that’d sting like a BITCH.
I also today held a 375 F pan and only got one blister and the rest of my hand healed in 30 minutes to an hour and I held it for probably 30 seconds or longer. I’d assume you’d have worse burns. Though most of my hand has no burns, the elasticity of my thumb came back in that 30-1 h. Only thing left is the blister that’s tiny.
Lastly I managed to automatically breathe or just absorb air for 15 minutes rapidly moving. Probably 10-15 reps per 20 seconds until I went 30-40 reps per 20 seconds. I pushed myself to max near the end and that’s when my breathing dramatically increased needing me to actually breathe.
Does anyone else experience this with eating constant meat? It almost feels like Kill, Conquer or Reproduce. If that makes sense.
Okay, okay. I know it’s a cliche right now, but can we please please please get this guy a brain scan? This sounds like a really good case for a few parasites.
Seriously. You either had a massive massive anemia (red meat can temporarily (!) help then), you are a top shitposter or you have a major issue.

And btw(edit): Diet change is absolutely known to cause mania in bipolar and similar diseases and a lot of what you write sounds like a patient in a phase of mania or hypomania. Please seek help. Or lick a lithium battery, I don’t really care.
Honestly neither. My bloodwork has been honestly optimal before this diet. No deficiencies or anything.
Also this is just normal due to our ancestral psychology. I thought at least until yesterday. Maybe I’ve retained too much from that state. Since to me this just makes sense.
Please see my edit in case you haven’t before.
And your ancestors were omnivores unless you have a lot of sudden body hair growth on a full moon.
Seriously dude. I know mania feels great. But it isn’t.
Also mania could be a really beneficial thing if you can control it. There’s a theory I had that our ancestors when they were constantly being hunted by wolves, Other creatures throughout time. That this constant rush would make them induced into hypomania at the minimum. Those with bipolar and In the societies, you would have to learn to control and hone those specific negative effects. Like a risk taking without thinking.
The irritation would be a negative effect or they would send it to something else.
Don’t get me wrong I’m not saying this is easy to do by any means but they had to to survive if they went down to depression. It’s likely that would’ve caused their death because imagine how depression that we see today affecting them when they couldn’t stop running or being alter.
Unless they had a tribe or a pack, they would be stranded. They would be stuck surviving while barely wanting to move. Thoughts all negative. Why I assume in this period they could not easily reach depression because they had to keep moving and moving and moving they may have been stressed out or down by the stress of surviving like this, but their constant state of mind was either an hypomania or mania if they had bipolar.
Now this comes into what I develop today called the evolutionary bipolar. I can control my hypomania and all of its negative symptoms completely. I can control mania up to 80 to 85%
If I went to a medical professional right now to be seen for bipolar, they would be so confused by how I act compared to how I actually talk about how I see things. They would begin to notice the mania in the back, but it not controlling anything I do because I don’t allow it to. I had a family. You really think I was going to allow such a pathetic thing to control me???
Yes. I know our ancestors where omnivores but meat specifically triggered much in them as it is me now. As a hard food to get.
And yes. This isn’t anything like mania to me. Mania it’s irritation is warm, everything triggers, overwhelming. This is cold, calculating, overwhelming and sadistic. Completely different.
This is not mania. I understand though this is the only baseline you have to compare.
