I am trying to figure out (if possible) what causes my episodes. I have noticed a possible major trigger for me. I have been supplementing magnesium oil lately, and noticed in particular (after 2 days of hypo-hell) just a few hours before I had sprayed magnesium oil all over my body. Before i 'lost it' I felt extremely tired, yawning like crazy (a few hours before normal bedtime, after dinner and just 1 beer which i slipped slowly). Unless I have a beer allergy (which i doubt) i am starting to see more frequent correlations between the magnesium oil and hypomania. I have no idea why- i thought it was hard to over-dose on?

A quick tally of my typical daily diet shows Im getting 200-300+ mg of magnesium through diet, eat pretty healthy and occasionally take a vitamin.
So, i am wondering if there is some kind of anxiety which kicks off these rage attacks / hypomania to kick in. It is hard to find much online other then some saying magnesium causes tummy troubles or anxiety.

side note: Last year I had been taking a really potent magnesium supplement, and almost blacked out while on a walk w/ my parents. I felt my heart palpitate really hard and started to see stars. I had to grab both of them to steady myself, and then i was terrified that i was going to die .... Perhaps i need to stop taking alternative measures for awhile and let the meds do their job....
