[QUOTE="Sakuraba39, post: 135448, member: 15636"] Everything Jones typed is what happens and needs to be done. It's easy, in theory, but the most difficult thing I've ever had to do. If you think dialing in T is difficult, just hope you don't get adrenal fatigue/exhaustion. There are so many variables that fluctuate daily that it makes hormonal/nutritional levels nearly impossible to control. And, most times, you never know which variable is causing what symptom. These bodily systems are reciprocally determined. The main things needed are: A. Elimination of the stressor(s). This is the most difficult part and could take many years; B. Rest...sleep, and lots of it....relaxation...meditation (or whatever) cognitive rest...physical rest...whatever it takes to calm your CNS and adrenals; C.) Diet...quitting destructive foods like sugars, grains, coffee, soda, alcohol, etc; and D. Medications/supplements....finding what you need in what combination and dosages, etc. About stressors: Depending on your issue, eliminating stress is the most difficult because the world doesn't stop just because you have adrenal fatigue. Your bills keep coming...but you might have to work less...which means less income, which typically means more stress...it's vicious. But, if you value your life, you have to make changes because, brother, it only gets worse if you don't. Use any metaphor you like...once structure is compromised, it puts additional strain on the rest of the unit....they are forced to overcompensate....then they break down...then the foundation is in peril...if you don't address the main issue as soon as possible, the entire building collapses. A great deal of these stressors are self-induced. Your body (adrenals & CNS) don't differentiate between eustress and distress. So, you'll have to take a good look at your life to determine what needs to change. A lot of people fail themselves here. If you can't be honest about your life and what caused the overload in the first place, then that lengthens the recovery period. You, most likely, cannot hydrocortisone your way to health. It will take a concerted combination of all the things I listed above. I won't even list all the stuff I tried because there were so many for various times and dosages and they may not even pertain to your issue. The longer you wait, though, the worse it will get. The worse it gets, the longer it will take to recover. You have a compromised foundation, galaxy. Don't wait until the walls cave in to make significant changes to your life. [/QUOTE]
