So I've recently come to realize that many of my phisical and phycological symtomps are from chronic stress/high chortisol. (random joint/muscle pains, brain fog, bad memory, bad workouts, volatile mood)
I got a few bloodworks trough the years and my chortisol in the morning has always been very high.
There isn't really anything I can do to make my life less stressfull, I have obligations and deadlines and I have to meet them.
I already have a very micronutrient dense diet (fatty fish, organ meats, fruit, eggs, etc.) and take a bunch of supps that are supposed to help (ashwaganda, vitamin D, methylene blue) but I haven't gotten much benefit from them.
My sleep is fine (usually 7 hours on weekdays amd 8-9 on weekends). I walk outside daily and lift 3x week.
I always had the issue of overheating (lost and regained weight multiple times troughout my teens), cutrently just started Tirzepatide to try fix it. Not taking any other drugs at the moment.
You guys know of any drugs/peptides/supplements that can have a significant impact on lowering stress and chortisol?
Ideally not SSRIs or other phychiatric drugs.
I tried general lifestyle changes but they have been ineffective so far. I feel like very mild problems in my everyday life cause me an exessive stress response. Normal inconviniences or small arguments of daily life get me to spiral in my own head.I've always been like this since my teens.
