Truehope/EMPowerplus Experience at Week Five

Posted by Natasha Tracy | Jan 22, 2014

It’s been quite a while since I’ve done a Truehope/EMPowerplus update. I had planned on more of them, initially, but when nothing major happened, I didn’t have much to report. I have come to some conclusions about my Truehope/EMPowerplus (what is Truehope/EMPowerplus) experience at five weeks, however, so I’ll share them below.

My Psychiatrist’s Reaction to EMPowerplus/Truehope Treatment

Posted by Natasha Tracy | Dec 30, 2013

I was really nervous to have to tell my doctor that I had decided to take the Truehope product EMPowerplus. I was pretty sure he was going to either laugh or chastise me out of his office. My anxiety about it was so bad that I didn’t want to mention it at all. Of course, that would have been a poor decision. Allowing anxiety to override your logic is never the right call.

So I told him and surprisingly, he was nonplussed. He just sort of said, “Alright then.”

EMPowerplus/Truehope Update Day 11

Posted by Natasha Tracy | Dec 29, 2013

I am now on day 11 of my EMPowerplus experiment and, yes, I have talked to my doctor about it (more on that later). Here’s what I have to report about the EMPowerplus:

I started on half a dose – that’s two pills in the morning and two in the evening.
Pretty much as soon as I started taking the EMPowerplus I started feeling giddy. Not quite hypomanic but notably elevated and different, although not better.
On day five I experienced an official rapid cycle from hypomania one day to serious debilitating depression the next day.
