Hi, I am a college student of mathematics and I also have bipolar I disorder, I was diagnosed at seventeen. Currently, I am working on a project for my statistics class, and I was thinking of doing a mental health themed project. I will include myself in this study. I have heard a great deal about the supposed benefits of omega 3 supplementation for some mental disorders. I take them myself and they seem to have helped me atleast a little bit. Anyway, what I would like to do is to poll people online who have different mental illnesses and are taking fish oil supplements, and I also want the opinions of some people who are not taking fish oil supplements. I want to ask them how it benefits them or doesn't benefit them. For my project, I want to compare the relapse rate, level of concentration, sleep, general wellness and so on and so forth between the two groups ( those who are taking fish oil supplements and those who are not taking fish oil supplements) in order to study the effects of fish oil/omega 3 supplementation on mental illness. However, I did not want to conduct this study on your website without first seeking your permission. I ask you for your permission to do this. It would really mean a lot to me. Thanks in advance!
