Guest guest Posted August 17, 2002 Report Share Posted August 17, 2002 Hi, I wish I could help you. Even though you say nothing has changed recently, how about going back a month or two ago? Sometimes a medication or supplement change can take awhile to catch up to you. What about something else changing in the past month or so that is not related to foods or medication? Has anything in your house changed that could affect you? Or is there something coming up that you may be anticipating? I hope you will call your doctor if things get really rough. He/she might be able to pick up on something.

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2002 Report Share Posted August 17, 2002 Hi, I understand where you are. I'm there also. I was free of depression for quite some time and now find myself sliding back through that dark abyss. I'm on my second medication and still see no results. I know from past experiences, it's too soon to tell. But unlike before, I had an instant fix on the medication I was given. It didn't work this time and now I'm trying another SSRI. Next week I will also begin seeing a psychologist twice a month. Hang in there and find your way. I'm convinced depression is a lifelong illness and our fight is an uphill battle, but not an impossible one to conquer. My prayers and thoughts are with you as I too struggle to find my way out of this dark cloud that continously hoovers over me. If you'd like to talk anytime, please email me privately. I'll listen and share. Maybe together we can crawl our way back to the brief joy we know can exsist.

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2002 Report Share Posted August 17, 2002 thank you for replying and offer of support. i guess i had just assumed it would be ok as long as i took no-fenol. maybe i could try a slightly higher dose. but then i worry, do i have to keep increasing the dose to stay ok. that is not acceptable to me. merlin. > i have been pretty much > >free of depression and had much reduced > anxiety for a while now but > >yesterday i woke up unable to concentrate > and really edgy and nervous. > >easily startled and a sense of looming > dread. today there is full > >depression. it is so long since i felt > like this i feel weighted down by > >darkness. and all the time the > thought " crusher is coming " is percolating > >through consiousness. i > don't dream but i dreamed of something foul > >rolling through the > cosmos towards me. the hairs on my arms keep standing > >up and i want > to run. it feels a bit like an adrenalin surge that is > >going on and > on. its so bad that a while ago i was checking out airfares. > >i think > if my son hadnt come round i would have left. i have no idea why > >this > is happening. i have eaten nothing different. no changes at home or > > > work. and i want it to go away. i do not want to live with > depression > >or anxiety any more now i know what it is to be free. > > > > _________________________________________________________________ > Join the world's largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. > http://www.hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 17, 2002 Report Share Posted August 17, 2002 ---I was wondering how much no-fenol are you taking? my almost 4 year old son takes one whole capsule with each meal and 1/2 with snacks. If I do not give enough he has problems with agression and hyperness. So maybe you dont have to keep giving yourself more and more but be open to the possibility that you just are not giving yourself enough especially if you eat a high phenol food. Also, have you had yourself tested for heavy metals? If not you may want to do a hair analysis as this is a good way to find out true body burden of metals toxicity. My son needs a lot of no-fenol and he has high antimony and lead. (just a thought)I hope yu feel better soon.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2002 Report Share Posted August 18, 2002 mercury and lead are definite problems but it will be a long time before i can chelate. hair testing is a good idea. i will research to find out where it can be done in OZ. it could be that i now need a bit more no-fenol. i have only been having 1 capsule across the day. i am nervous of changing doses because my system seems to respond violently to changes. initially even this tiny dose of no- fenol was hugely upsetting. g. > ---I was wondering how much no-fenol are you taking? my almost 4 year > old son takes one whole capsule with each meal and 1/2 with snacks.

For me, it would be yeast or bacteria, or something environmental [like certain trees in bloom] or it would be a food that I was sensitive to that I never knew I was sensitive to. For example, I never had problems with nitrites/nitrates, until recently. But now I do, they are guaranteed to cause me a headache, even if I use enzymes. So you might want to eat different foods on different days, and see if some days are better than other days. Or find out if certain trees or things are in bloom now [isn't it coming on spring where you live?]. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 18, 2002 Report Share Posted August 18, 2002 <isn't it coming on spring where you live?].> Dana, it is coming up to Spring downunder here. I wonder if " winter blues " are having any bearing on this? I know little of the condition but it is recognised by most naturopaths etc and has something to do with less daylight etc. May be worth checking. " g " .... I am looking for metal toxicity testing in Australia, too. At present I am checking out a recommended homeopath in Melbourne and have heard of an excellent one in Daylesford. If you discover any info on this could you post it please. I'm very happy for you to email to my address if you'd like. My son (14) is improving steadily on the enzymes (still GFCF, too) but we are seeing subtle leaps forward since giving No-fenol. He has 1 NF with each meal and snack and I try to give one more away from food as well. Over the weekend he became a bit teary during a concert his dad was singing in for the first time. It was Mozart and all in Latin, but ds said the music was beautiful and gave him tears. He was not distressed, just a bit watery eyed. Later it struck me that previously he has shown emotion from watching films etc but this was different. There was no real visual stimulus. The program was all in Latin! He was responding purely to the auditory; processing it and expressing an appropriate emotional response! He sat still and listened for nearly two hours!! He whole demeanour was relaxed and comfortable, then he went home with his big sister to listen (not watch!) to the end of the footy! Go enzymes!!! We have also used the Mozart Effect CDs for some of his co-ordination exercises in previous years. However this chorale singing was quite different from anything he had heard before. Another WOW moment! Fran Melbourne Australia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some people, it is a sign of phenol intolerance, which sunlight does help, but also phenol reduction helps http://www.autismchannel.net/dana/sad.htm Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2008 Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 My take on this is the TOXINS that Candida can generate is what causes these emotional symptoms. I find that what helps Candida AND Depression is Coconut Oil taken along with your meals. A real pick up.

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 I agree that it's the toxins that cause these problems. Candida give off toxins that are like alcohol, causing brain fog, memory loss, loss of concentration, depression and anxiety. Coconut oil is an antifungal so will kill off candida, causing more toxins to circulate through the system. What I recommend is plenty of water to flush out the toxins, bentonite clay, activated charcoal and/or molybdenum to help with detoxification, espom salt baths, etc. Also Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is helpful to deal with the emotional aspects, and the other aspects are dealt with in the physical sense. Of all these, DIET is the most important. If you are eating foods that feed or aggravate candida, it's like turning on the heater in your house and then opening the windows. You keep making an enviroment that is friendly to the candida, and then trying to kill off the candida. You have to build up your immune system with healthy foods that do not feed the candida and make your immune system stronger. Luv, Debby in San , CA 147 pounds lost! 100% of health issues reversed!

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 hi all, just wondering what supps etc others have found useful for dealing with depression and anxiety? For anxiety I tried kava at the recommended dose and at more than the recommended dose and that did not help enough. I am chemically sensitive and sulfur sensitivie. My hormones are quite messed up but my anxiety is very much mostly situational and its likely to get more and more intense as im unable to change the situation. Any ideas of something quite strong??!!! Im not depressed but its there lurking, i can feel it lol. Ive found prozqc very helpfull in the past but with my now messed up chemistry and chemical sensitivity i dont want to go near psych drugs. Kindest regards, D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Dana I am still in a WDB myself and can share what is helping me. Foot baths and charcoal did a tremendous job helping with removing the toxins I kept/keep breathing in. That relieved a lot of symptoms. Antifungals too for killing the mold. The usual protocols of probiotics and nutrients, etc. For the emotional part, the anxiety and depression and other troubling emotions, I use EFT, visualization and journaling. It really works. I would not have made it without those things. I also had to learn to stop thinking negatively, to stop catastrophizing and to stop believing that I can't make it or get better under those circumstances. We develop a lot of beliefs when we are ill and they can create a lot of anxiety. They have for me. The good part was finding out that most of my beliefs were wrong. I had needless anxiety. So whenever I form beliefs about my condition or my living circumstances I tell myself that my beliefs are wrong. I have learned to substitute postive, upbuilding, helpful thoughts and they make a huge difference in how I feel physically and they support the immune system. We should believe that we will get well or we never will. Our bodies listen to our thoughts and respond accordingly. Even if we for some reason can't get completely well, believing that we will supports the immune system and helps us get better and gives us peace instead of worry and calms the body, reduces symptoms, makes us a little more comfortable, makes coping a little easier. Sometimes a drug does help temporarily and if you can find one that will help that you can tolerate then taking it even just once or twice might calm the body enough to make all the cognitive and emotional work you do after that be sufficient to keep you feeling peaceful and better. In the past I took Xanax and it was very helpful and good for anxiety, but it is only good to take at most a few times. The health professional that used to treat me told me that all drugs wipe out gut flora. I know that after I took Xanax for two months I developed a lot of problems and symptoms, temperature problems, sleeping problems, cognitive problems, and eventually developed a slightly painful tremor. I have had so much anxiety in my life, and fear and panic too, it is so awful, and I hate to think of anyone else experiencing that. I hope that you will get some relief and calm and peace. All the best and good wishes, anita ---From: Dana S Thsnks very much everyone who replied. Unfortunately i keep ending up in WDB'S and my MCS, and lack of money (not working),is making it hard to find a place. I also react to very low level cross contamination.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Surella Glad you mentioned this, I forgot to include that in another post I wrote. I read in a book on Fibromyalgia once that because of how it affects the mind with brain fog and causes us to think messed up a good coping skill for that is to use words like cancel, erase, delete, undo, start over, to get rid of those thoughts and I have done that ever since. It gives my mind permission/authority to let go and get rid of troubling thoughts and start fresh. I use words like dissolve and melt also. Whatever works for you and feels best. I have a tendency to obsess on thoughts or be troubled by random disturbing thoughts, especially because of my anxiety, and those words help a lot with stopping and getting rid of them. I don't have to keep trying to argue with the thought or resolve it. Some thoughts are too illogical or irrational to reason with and I have to reject them without further ado. I figure if I have these kinds of cognitive experiences others might also and benefit from this coping skill. anita ---From: surellabaer Good for you! My mother has a mantra for negative thoughts. She says cancel, cancel. Kind of telling yourself to get away from the bad thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus mum is real sick and therre other stresses in my life. Kinda like my world is imploding on many levels. My cortisol is very very low. > Here ia an article i came upon. I use homeopathics The dosage for these remedies is 6X or 12X. Homeopathic remedies come as lactose pellets or in liquid drops. They are taken 2-3 times a day for several days. If they don't seem to be working after several days, stop the drops and try another one. Anger Chamomile is for finicky anger. The child is fine one moment and angry the next. Lachesis is for the anger of jealousy. This child is critical, suspicious, contradictory and oversensitive. Natrum mur is for the child who is very sensitive and gets angry and bursts into tears at any imagined slight. Nux vomica is used for great irritability which leads to headaches and stomach upsets with great sensitivity to noises, bright lights and smells. Staphasagria is for suppressed anger and humiliation causing headaches. Anxiety Children express a particular type of anxiety that can be called acute anticipation. Aconite is for chronic fright and fearfulness. Calc carb is for children who overwork and overload themselves with tasks and anticipate problems. Gelsemium is for acute anticipation or for a child who has never felt well since a particular frightful event. Lycopodium is for children who will do anything to avoid humiliation and embarrassment or who have not been well since such an event. Silicea is for children who fear that they will not have enough energy and constantly moan and whine that they are unable to get things done. Hyperactivity This condition is often misdiagnosed in a child who is just too bright and active for the adult caregivers in charge. It may be due to food allergies, too much sugar in the diet or lack of attention and discipline. Argentum nitricum is used for the hyperactive child with a sweet tooth. The child seems to have a high metabolic rate and is thin, pale, anxious and can't sit still. Calc phos is suited to the child who likes to play pranks but is still shy and afraid. Physically there are swollen tonsils and abdominal gas. Chamomilla is used to calm the excessively agitated child who cannot sit still for one minute and literally wears himself out to the point of tears. Kali bromatum is for the case of the child who is constantly using his hands in some form and cannot keep them still. Lycopodium is used for the child who is exhausted but still can't sit still. There is irritability and restlessness, mostly around dinnertime, and lots of gastric distress. Stramonium is used for a severe case of hyperactivity with violence. There is a characteristic loud and frenetic speech pattern. Lack of Confidence The following are constitutional remedies that are given to restore lost confidence in a child. As the parent or caregiver you may work with a homeopathic doctor on the treatment of these difficult issues. Anacardium is for lack of confidence due to abuse or physical humiliation. The child becomes hard and cold, has no feeling and may become emotionally cold and viokent. Gelsemium is for poor confidence due to anticipatory anxiety, weakness, illness or fright. Lycopodium is for poor confidence due to fear of being in public, having been embarrassed in the past. Natrum mur is for fear of being rejected. Staphasagria is for poor confidence due to being humiliated. There is deep anger but the child will do anything to please. Sadness Children get sad for many of the same reasons that adults do. The following remedies can treat the effects of a loss in the family due to death of a family member including the family pet, for separation due to illness or divorce or for disappointment. Aurum is for the loss of a very close relative to whom the child was extremely attached. When this relationship is lost, the child feels there is nothing to live for. Ignatia is for acute, sudden, overwhelming, shocking grief; the child can't understand and can't believe what has happened. Natrum mur is for a child who is emotionally open and whose heart is broken. At that point she gets stuck there and shuts down emotionally and becomes both guilty and resentful. Phosphoric acid is for treating a big grief. The child has emotional and physical symptoms of loss of energy, debility and apathy. Pulsatilla is for abandonment with grief and sadness and gentle weeping. If you want to know where I buy from let me know. They are goo dquality and very helpful to talk to on the phone.\ Meredith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was only 40. I still have not experienced the symptoms of menopause. I do not think it is hormonally related. A doctor told me if you are too sick to reproduce then the body will not provide the environment for conception. It will also prevent you from losing nutrients and blood you cannot afford to lose. The body is smart and does everything it can to keep us alive and functioning, whatever that takes. > > anita > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 DOES IT SEEMS LIKE IT ESCALATES FOR A COUPLE DAYS? yes, symptoms from re-exposures can last a few days to a week, sometimes longer. washing the sinuses after a exposure can help stop the progression of of reactions if it's due to what you breathed in lingering in the sinuses. the faster you get the sinuses washed after you've had a re-exposure, the more it helps. DO YOU NOTICE YOU ARE GETTING MORE AND MORE AGITATED AS THIS HAPPEN? yes, it's uncontrolable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 I think period menopause kickstarted my MCS. I was so sick and confused because I was only 43 when it started and, of course, the doctors had no idea what was going on. > > > > Dana > > > > I have not had a period since about Oct of 1999.
