My genuine advice for you is to find a psychiatrist, tell them everything, and then follow their recommendations

Okay, okay. I know it's a cliche right now, but can we please please please get this guy a brain scan? This sounds like a really good case for a few parasites.
Seriously. You either had a massive massive anemia (red meat can temporarily (!) help then), you are a top shitposter or you have a major issue.
Source: Healthcare professional. Not your HCP.
And btw(edit): Diet change is absolutely known to cause mania in bipolar and similar diseases and a lot of what you write sounds like a patient in a phase of mania or hypomania. Please seek help. Or lick a lithium battery, I don't really care.
Honestly neither. My bloodwork has been honestly optimal before this diet. No deficiencies or anything.
Also this is just normal due to our ancestral psychology. I thought at least until yesterday. Maybe I’ve retained too much from that state. Since to me this just makes sense.
Please see my edit in case you haven't before.
And your ancestors were omnivores unless you have a lot of sudden body hair growth on a full moon.
Seriously dude. I know mania feels great. But it isn't.
Also mania could be a really beneficial thing if you can control it. There’s a theory I had that our ancestors when they were constantly being hunted by wolves, Other creatures throughout time. That this constant rush would make them induced into hypomania at the minimum. Those with bipolar and In the societies, you would have to learn to control and hone those specific negative effects. Like a risk taking without thinking.
The irritation would be a negative effect or they would send it to something else.
Don’t get me wrong I’m not saying this is easy to do by any means but they had to to survive if they went down to depression. It’s likely that would’ve caused their death because imagine how depression that we see today affecting them when they couldn’t stop running or being alter.
Unless they had a tribe or a pack, they would be stranded. They would be stuck surviving while barely wanting to move. Thoughts all negative. Why I assume in this period they could not easily reach depression because they had to keep moving and moving and moving they may have been stressed out or down by the stress of surviving like this, but their constant state of mind was either an hypomania or mania if they had bipolar.
Now this comes into what I develop today called the evolutionary bipolar. I can control my hypomania and all of its negative symptoms completely. I can control mania up to 80 to 85%
If I went to a medical professional right now to be seen for bipolar, they would be so confused by how I act compared to how I actually talk about how I see things. They would begin to notice the mania in the back, but it not controlling anything I do because I don’t allow it to. I had a family. You really think I was going to allow such a pathetic thing to control me????
Yes. I know our ancestors where omnivores but meat specifically triggered much in them as it is me now. As a hard food to get.
And yes. This isn’t anything like mania to me. Mania it’s irritation is warm, everything triggers, overwhelming. This is cold, calculating, overwhelming and sadistic. Completely different.
This is not mania. I understand though this is the only baseline you have to compare.
I beg your finest fucking pardon. The fuck did I just read? I get why other comments are saying bait.
I've done basically full carnivore back when my partner first had bariatric surgery because we don't have the largest food budget and she needed to avoid carbs while having the highest amount of protein for the smallest possible volume of food so meat was basically the only thing that fit the bill.
What in the frosted mini fuck are you on about?
Judging by their history id say they were already delusional. Lack of carbs may have cause a psychotic break.

You did not "hold" a 200c pan for 30 seconds and escape with one blister and no burns.
Eating meat doesn't rewrite your genetic code and give you heat resistance.

I also today held a 375 F pan and only got one blister and the rest of my hand healed in 30 minutes to an hour and I held it for probably 30 seconds or longer.
Yeah, no. First off, at that temperature you'd have ended up hospitalized if you held on to it for 30 seconds, and no, your body will not repair itself in 30 minutes no matter what you think. This is the real world, not X-Files...
Having said that, I feel like you're having different issues and maybe you should talk to a psychologist?
Also, eat vegetables. Seriously, what is it with the Internet and giving people terrible ideas?

Beyond sounding like absolute anti-carnivore hogwash or placebo, it sounds like a weirdly accelerated case of that parasite you can get from eating undercooked red meat.

Just eat a vegetable dude…
Don’t even know if I have any I like. My parents didn’t do good on feeding me. This is the first time I’ve had anything like high quality meat in years.
Fiber is clearly the thing that makes humans sane.
no, but it does make me want to get on all fours and eat grass and say "mooooo"
Fun I think
Has it had any effect on your wings?
Very likely yeah I mean that’s how I pushed myself to 40 reps every 20 seconds. Before I could only do about 25 to 30 reps every 20 seconds. And that was painful
I was just thinking about you the other day. Glad to see you're still around.
Hi, YES!
Okay, so like half your post is pure lunacy, but low carb dieting is known to commonly cause hypomania in many people. This is often one of the desired effects of the diet, which often simply manifests as feeling more energetic and optimistic. It sounds like you might be experiencing this effect to an extreme.
I recommend that you (1) immediately come to terms with the fact that you are not in your right mind and (2) eat some carbs and see if you feel more normal. Then work with a mental health professional if you want to continue experimenting with low carb diet strategies.

This is new information for me. Do you have any references I could read more on?
I forgot where I first heard it, but here is an article.
I actually noticed it myself when being on a keto diet (which I'd been following for weight loss) spontaneously cured my depression.
That is a very well written article, I just wish they'd provided a source for the hypomania. The sources they provided showed only benefits.
Based on how preposterous most of what you're saying is, it must have driven you insane. A small blister from holding a 375 degree pan? Bullshit.
Hahaa not this for sure. I mean this is just a new addition onto years of things but yeah one blister
Hi I'm one of the moderators of !carnivore@discuss.online
Do you experience what feels like our ancestral psychology of Kill, Conquer or Reproduce endlessly
No, the most common psychological effect people report is being very calm and less anxious.
irritation to certain things.
Can you describe the irritation?
Where I got a cut that almost circled my whole arm. Barely any pain. When before that’d sting like a BITCH.
This is not a known affect of eating a carnivore diet, pain sensitivity should be the same
