I have been getting adjusted twice a week for about 4 weeks now. According to my chiropractor, I should feel very energetic and happy, but for me it's the other way around. Did any of you guys have a similar experience?

No, my chiropractor saved my life, I never felt better than when I was seeing him. Maybe he's not the one for you, try another one.

Hi Kisawanta. I am a retired Chiropractor. In my experience, some patients do feel depressed/low energy after being adjusted. While many patients feel an energy boost, this is not a 'universal' response.
I discovered in my many years in practice, that patients who respond to treatment with an energy drop are often getting too many adjustments on that visit. When I limited my adjustments on them to just one to three subluxations, they often felt much better than when I adjusted many more segments. You might share this with your doctor and ask her/him to only adjust one or two segments for a few visits and see how this works for you.
Best wishes and good luck.

I would have to agree with Dr. J. I think you should lower the amount of adjustments and see how your body reacts to that. I hope you feel better.

No this is not normal so see your regular doc to find out what is going on.
