Is this a real thing? That people fail to produce enough cortisol (other hormones such as DHEA are normal) after constant heavy stress?

From what I gathered - Longecity members think so but doctors do not. 

 

a trial of mifepristone

 

or perhaps lemon balm (weak HPA inhibitor) 

 

might help 

 

 

This is the general consensus of people producing TOO MUCH cortisol. Dysregulation

Adrenal fatigue is not a real illness. HPA axis dysregulation is real, and is much more complex and nuanced than the pseudoscience explanation of adrenal fatigue. Look into HPA axis dysregulation and depression. NSI-189 seems useful for repairing it.

I agree with this.  Your HPA axis can get locked into a pathological state where various feedback loops interact to push things out of their normal operating mode, but your adrenal glands don't get "fatigued".

 

Doctors do widely accept that HPA axis dysregulation is a real thing.
