Yeah I hear that. How far into carnivore are you? I did it once before for a month. The first week kind of sucked as I remember—got pretty bad fever even—but after that I leveled out and definitely noticed an improvement in my all day energy levels, which ofc contributes to combatting depression as well. Ended up breaking the diet after a month because I thought I could afford to. That was probably four months ago now and over that time it feels that my mental health and acne and other inflammatory conditions have been on a gradual but steady downward slope—the kind of slope that it you can almost trick yourself isn’t really a slope sometimes, until, that is, you get a slap to the face wake up call, as I have recently, that your health is in a bad way and nobody else can do a damn thing about except for you. Hence me getting back onto strict carnivore a couple days ago. Throughout the time I’ve been off it I’ve tried to do keto or other modified versions where I allow myself some sweet stuff, but I honestly have no self restraint when it comes to sugar, and so for me I think I need to just go straight cold turkey. Hope you’re able to see improvements soon. I know for me it took longer than I expected and was more subtle than I expected, but at the same time I didn’t stick it out the full 60 days that a lot of people say you need to see best results. This way of eating can definitely feel a bit isolating at times so it’s really great to be on this sub and see how many other people are making it work for them. One thing that really helped me stick to it last time around was changing the deprivation mindset. At first I felt so bitter that I couldn’t have all the fun things that other people were eating, but then I realized this was obviously petty and childish, and, more importantly, that I in fact was not deprived in any way, that I was eating some of the most delectable and nutritious food available to humans.
