Is it everyone, or just anecdotal, whose mind clears on keto? thinks more clearly etc.?
I have tried keto and given up before, but I've been reading about the clearer mind some folks have, and if it's practically everyone who experiences this after 1-2 weeks (I never got that far) then I will have a major motivation to try again. Please let me know both if your mind is clearer and if it isn't. Also, does anyone have a mood disorder (depression, bipolar, schizophrenia) that has improved with keto? Thanks so much!

I felt like at first I felt somewhat clearer, but I was very depressed when I began.

I’m on day 4 or 5, and my mind is super clear today. Clearer than it’s been in a looong time. Yesterday and the day before I suffered TERRIBLY from the keto flu. The nausea, dizziness, stomach distress, and muscle cramps eased up last night. I had insomnia and got literally NO sleep, but I’m not tired at all. I’ve been diagnosed with bipolar (I mostly suffer from depression and anxiety, though—rarely mania). Normally when I don’t feel the need for sleep it’s a sign of mania, but I’m not experiencing any other symptoms. I’m interested to see what kind of effect this diet will have on my mood.

Thanks so much for the answer, that encourages me very much. Thinking of trying it again!
