Dear xxxxxxx:

xxxxxx forwarded me a message she posted to you regarding you having problems, but I don't have your original message. I can post to the group, but I've opted not to receive the email for the holidays.I'm sorry to hear you're having a hard time, but it DOES get better. I promise. I know it's hard, and I wish there was some magic cure, but there is no one thing that I know of.

I don't take any medications, and am doing better than most, and Cindy is another that comes to mind who takes no medications and is well. We both took the natural route, and are both doing great.

I would say you may want to try some of these things:

MSM (helps detox, helps candida and parasites, helps joints and muscles)

Acidopholus (replaces good bacteria - helps candida and parasites)

Homeopathic detox formula (assists the body in eliminating toxins)

For depression, I take SAM-e. But, I would start with 100 mg once a day, see how I do, and increase the dose slowly. It really helps (and it seems to help the depersonalization/derealization in my opinion, as well) but the seritonin increase can increase anxiety if you over-do it. Use this with caution.

I'll be saying a prayer for you.If you need more advice, email me at the carolapatterson@h... address.

God bless,

Carol
