Strictly speaking, NAC is not an amino acid, but cysteine is. As a med, it might still work better than just cysteine.
It is possible that some/most with BP have some cysteine deficiency which can cause the brain to stay/be too toxic for normal functioning, resulting in BP or SZ.

This month was the first time I increased the dose of NAC, and I think that it is stabilizing and grounding at this dose (3,000 mg a day for the week of hormonal issues). I made it through the time of month that I usually have obsessive thoughts/ anxiety and I feel very stable. I'll continue to try this every month and see if it continues to be this stabilizing.
I'll report back to you guys.
