[BDNF]

I did some anabolic steroids which the withdrawal gave me major depression, needed to take zoloft and risperidone for a year, got told I would make a full recovery but when I came off it I decided I wanted to go back on the zoloft due to having helped my ocd. I also started taking astaxanthin. I had increased energy and talkativeness and was diagnosed with bipolar. I stopped both the zoloft and supplement per advise of my doctor. The energy continued. Then about 4 months after I suddenly became severely depressed out of nowhere and that's when I accepted the diagnosis.
