Guest guest Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 This is meant for Jan and then TB/Terry? Jan, I feel you must mean well, but telling someone " detox or die " and saying they don't want to get well is harsh IMHO. I can understand that perhaps, you feel frustrated by your efforts to disseminate info you feel is not being heeded, but I think that it's best to offer the info and then let it go and let the person do what's best for them without judgement. Rather than chastising them, which is what I felt when I read your post, for not heeding your advice in your opinion. I feel if you feel frustrated with someone on the list or elsewhere, regarding giving advice let it go, and let that person do what they feel is best. You do not need to put out any more energy and vent anger/frustration at them. If you feel you are becoming angry could you perhaps step back then and let it go...? They asked for input and you willingly gave it. It is their choice as to what they do with it, and your choice to give it. Also, as I understand it TB is overwhelmed right now, as we all have been there, done/doing that and it's just so hard when one is so sick and overwhelmed. We all come to things in our own way. If you feel frustrated by putting out energy and feel TB is not heeding your advice, please be gentle, remember how overwhelmed you have been in the past, (or perhaps currently), and leave it up to him/her as to what she does with the info. TB, detox is not fun, and neither is die off. Many of us have been or are where you are with this. It truly is a nightmare for sure. We understand non-functional. I can say I definetly do after 6 years treating this tick borne illnesses (TBI's) and the collateral damage. It takes persistence for sure. I do agree that this disease often makes us sicker before better when treating, and for most of us we have to deal with many symptoms, esp. before seeing improvement. Unfortunately, few find a magic bullet and we all have to figure out what works best for us as it is very individual. A rule I have is not to introduce more than one new thing at a time, as then I don't know what's doing what! And I start a very low, slow doses and ramp up very slowly IF possible. I think it's better to start at very low dose and increase, than take too much and have to stop completely due to the effects. You can always decrease doses/back off to see if that gives you a break. Once I feel that I know how I am doing with one thing and it is incorporated, I may introduce something else. It depends... I have also found that the GAPS/SC diet is best for healing and natural slow detox, in addition to other detox methods of course. Best to you both, CL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
