This brought me to tears. I finally understand what I’ve suffered from for years. This defines all of my symptoms.

This Doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about health. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way. I just love learning from his simple to understand videos ... I respect this man immensely 😊😊👍👍

I ran on continuous adrenaline 20-24 hours a day from age 19 on, and had zero to 5 hours sleep a night , had abnormally stressful home life and a stressful job. I was burned out by 35. Now I’m 50 & still trying to fix my self. I wish I knew all this when I was younger, especially when I was trying to raise my kids in that constant state.

One of the biggest stresses is anyone who isn’t like this they just don’t understand what you go through on a daily basis.

Anyone else feel better just hearing his voice?

Of course I'm watching this at 2am.. I have all those symptoms except high blood pressure. Gastrointestinal issues that can't be explained. Breathing problems. Over weight. Can't deal with stress. Takes everything seriously. Poor diet. Aggravated easily. Wow thank you Dr for making this video

I was the classic Cushing’s syndrome body type. Through a proper human diet I removed the roughly ninety extra pounds I was carrying. After they found my muscle invasive bladder cancer they found the tumor on my adrenal. A suppression test showed it was putting out extra cortisol. Removal corrected my metabolism with a tremendous improvement in health. Not only physically but also mentally.

So grateful to you, Dr. Berg for not asking for money, or leading to an ad to get to the answers. You had it all in one spot without asking for a thing. Thank you!

I have just come out of 18 months of stress, fear and worry, shame and guilt. A dark night of the soul, but, I am lucky I had tools to survive. I was in a bad way though, eating crap (high carb and sugar) I didn't give a fig for my own health and fasting went bye bye. I am thankful I had a diabetic crisis, hospital with outdated medical procedures for diabetes (dextrose and insulin) I was teetering with potassium and magnesium deficiency and circling the drain after my whole system went down... 4 months later... I am almost normal 1980 normal, I am eating right, walking, fasting, mindful, and about to learn how to heal my darling little adrenal glands. I love life, I am thankful and appreciate you Doctor Berg

Yes--I grew up ultra-vigilant and walking on eggshells. Problems ensue for a lifetime.

This is 100% me. I seriously can't take stupid people anymore, along with dealing with everything else he said. Peoples process of thinking has gone down quite a bit the past 3 or 4 years. Tired of carrying the dead weight around me.

I know I have this condition!! I been a correctional officer for 10 years and been in horrible stressful situation, have had life stressors and have a disabled adult child I care for. Thank you so much for this video. Very informative I don’t take any medication but am in my fifties. Definitely gonna learn to manage myself use these suggestions. Thank you Dr. Berg. I have hope.

10:08 This is not an exaggerated drawing - many of us post-menopausal women are very familiar with this body type and look almost exactly like this. It seems to happen to many of us that our bodies change to this type and shape.

you know, as a phlegmatic person I always thought I never got stressed out, but my body type is clearly adrenal!! Now I understand that I internalized my stress. Thanks for all your teaching, Dr Berg!!

I feel like I became this way over the years, because people told me I'm too relaxed and I don't work as fast as other ppl. I want to retrain my body to be calm and be at its natural state of calmness. Thanks Dr. Berg, this video just affirmed what my intuition told me. Thank you for helping us

So glad Dr. Berg made this specific video. I have chronic adrenal fatigue. My protein is converted to sugar and I lose muscle mass. Diet, sleep, meditation, less over training and mindful stress reduction is going to be my ticket to succeed. I refuse to let others, especially the most troublesome people I can't immediately rid myself from, dictate my happy place inside myself.😂🎉

This video is AMAZING! I'm 61 and in menopause. For Menopausal women, dealing with stress is very difficult. Our bodies are under stress just because of our flucuating hormones alone, so learning how to DE stress is so important. Thank you SO SO much for this.

I have had adrenal fatigue for over 20 years. I had twins in 2001 and they were delivered by emergency cesarean at 28 weeks. One was released at 6 weeks and the other at 4 months. Both had apnea monitors and the one that stayed in NICU for four months also had oxygen. And I was alone. I also had severe anemia and pneumonia when they were delivered. They are now 22 years old and I am only now feeling alive again. But for so many years of no sleep and no help and dealing with a school system that was clueless was a nightmare. And I have a 22 year old that was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at 12 months. I am a full time caregiver. 24/7/365. It comes in phases though. I feel good for a while then bam I’m down again.
