My God guys, this answers so much about myself! I have to get this book...will

be going to the library today! Wow...I have felt " drunk " without drinking too

many times! I even would slur my speech and not be able to walk straight! No

wonder why the kids act " drunk " too! I have even been accused of drinking by my

old psychiatrist, when I have not! Yet could not convince the ill informed

" idiot " ! Working on forgiveness today! (THAT MISSED THAT I HAD CELIAC DISEASE,

and misdiagnosed me as having: anorexia, bulimia, and mental illness, resulting

in 14 pills a day! I was a toxic basket case on all these meds...turned into

the " living dead " ! I always felt poisoned! I WAS POISONED!

Re: Excessive drinking of water

Hi Tara,

I found this quote in Jaquelyn McCandless's book, Children With Starving

Brains: " Anytime a child acts 'drunk' you can bet they have the 'autobrewery

syndrome; -- alchoholic intoxication due to the overgrowth of Candida albicans

in the G.I. tract. "

I do agree with the others that have suggested that you investigate the

diabetes idea if not for the sole purpose of ruling it out. However, it may

turn out that it is a drunken yeast / thirsty detoxing issue. If it is, you are

in the right place.

Good luck! And keep us posted.

" Resentment is a medicine we take expecting the other person to die! " If my

doctors had known what we now know...they would have helped me...they just

didn't know. So many still don't get it. I let go today...I heal...and I

educate those who need to know in the future...when I am ready....when my family

is ready......to tell the world......... with all of us growing in numbers by

the day!

Thanks for your support....to all of you!

Listen Antoniette, you can't be bitter, trust me on this one, I spent a long

time being bitter for things that Dr.'s did to me, I only shared a little

bit of the pain that they have put me through, I spent years being bitter,

not understanding why this happened, how I got from point A to point B when

so much of the road I traveled so blindly. Shoulda, coulda, woulda's, they

don't matter in the hear and now and only do one thing, prevent healing. No

matter what your diet looks like, how careful you are about chemicals,

metals, yadda, yadda, yadda...........none of it will work until you let

your bitterness go.

By holding on to the injustices and the pain Dr.'s inflicted on you, you are

only letting them further do it.

Levin has pointed out that ADD/ADHD is an impairment in brain/glucose

metabolism, the brain can't use it, and taps into adrenalin.

We find benefit from taking a tincture of Gotu Kola, as this herb improves

brain suugar metabolism, and will help the brain to use glucose properly,

preventing some of the drunken brain syndrome. It increases blood flow to the

brain, and has been an inumerable aid to learning, I would take this over any

supplement or medication, it works this good.

I am wondering if this book would be any help to me?

I made the connection just the other day about the intoxicating

effects of sugars on me. I was refined sugar free from 1996 till I

got pg in 2003 (I was more concerned w/keeping food down than what was

in it in the begining of my pg and never got back to eating sugar

free). When I would occasionally have sugar I got the comments from

friends that I appeared like I had been drinking. I never had

recognized it in myself untill it was pointed out. I personally found

that certain " sugars " bothered me more than others. Fruit juice

concentrate was pretty good, honey, but I could only tolerate small

ammounts of maple syrup or sucunat (although more than white sugar).

Fructose was just like white sugar to me, as was corn syrup. I also

found that I felt better if I was taking a coloidal mineral

suppliment. In fact taking that seemed to help as much as avoiding

sugar. Not that the one replaced the other but getting sugar or

skipping the minerals both seemed to have an equal impact on my

feeling of well being. I did the diet to treat my own adult ADD.

I am learing so much here.
