I made a NF profile, but have absolutely no skill in html, which seems to be kind of important there in way of advertising. I log into it and turn the phone lines on, but I've had no calls there. I will admit, I put more time and effort into the ttm, so that is probably why no calls on NF.

Ok,so I'm convinced I was misdiagnosed. I really think I just have anxiety, not depression. I just think the anxiety made me come off as depressed. Ever since I switched to anxiety meds over depression meds, I feel better. Oh well, live and learn.

Omg motion(car) sickness.I hate you!And everyone I know is telling me to go out!Yeah,only around my home because there I can just walk and I dont need a taxi.I think I just had the worst episode ever,I will probably need 12 hours to recover.Curious what natural remedies are for this.So far I read ginger helps.Will try that out.I used to take some pills for motion sickness but they were affecting my liver so Im not taking them anymore.Im still nauseaous and feeling like this only brings out my anxiety .40 mins in a taxi and my day was ruined.

I don't know if it's the same as I don't have motion sickness, but I do have horrible stomach issues. When I'm nauseated I use peppermint tea, peppermints, or lemon drops. You can also try some form of "preggy pops" that are for women with morning sickness. I tried them, they work, but are a bit pricey depending. To me the lemon drops work just as good and are like a $1.00. Watch it with too much ginger, you'll go from nausea to living in the bathroom.

Sadly, our society tells us to only turn to doctors for answers and our health and never question or disagree with a diagnose.

So, don't blame yourself! Be proud of yourself for having the strength to eventually find a solution. <3

Thanks Chick!Is good to know about the bathroom effect.I dont want to live in there lol.I read peppermint is reccomended in combination with ginger maybe thats why,peppermint makes you go less.I have peppermint so I will make a tea right now.Hopefully it will make me feel better because I dont know what I want right now between vomiting and sleeping.Probably both but none happens.

Yeah, I found out the hard way. My mom was trying to find remedies for all of my stomach bs, and made me this ginger tea with actual ginger...thought I was going to die lol! Needless to say I was homebound and staring at tile for most of the day haha. She swears by a cinnamon stick or two brewed into a tea, but I think the peppermint works best, especially fresh peppermint. The cinnamon does seem to work for digestive issues though.

I think it depends what you suffer from. I know for panic attacks it's always recommended to try CBT so you can figure out what triggers them. For me meds arent worth it since they make me really sick so therapy has been wonderful.




I've actually had no luck with CBT at all but I completely understand that it works for some other people.

That happens all the time and they use depression meds to treat anxiety. For the last few years I am med free, I only take Ativan when needed and I feel a million times better. SSRI's are horrible, I just hate those drugs.

Also if you don't sleep well?? that makes you depressed! often times when doctors diagnose you with depression they don't even bother to ask if you are actually getting good sleep!

I got some L theanine to try out from the health food store.. I couldn't find that product in USA! .. Not even on amazon.. but what I got was the Paradise Sun Theanine.. it is omg so small the capsules and you only get 30 of them.. so I took 1 to try out. there are no fillers though.. cost me $19.99 small price to pay for piece of mind in your daily life. OMG they are way cheaper on amazon.. well next time I will order them there or try a different brand..

Some brands are definitely better then others. This is my favourite brand. And it is chewable! I don't know about you but I take so many pills a day that it is nice to not have to take one more. LOL!

Not much at all.. like 200 mgs a day or so?? however!.. I have been reading up on the detrimental effects of not having a gallbladder!! which i'll post about when I have more time .. on cam now..lol

which seems to probably be the source of almost every single issue I have.. I had my gallbladder removed 15 yrs ago.. and no one ever told me I need bile salts and or digestive enzymes the rest of my life!..

^^Not having a gallbladder I would think would make you more sensitive to things you eat, and take.
I remember when my mom had her gall bladder removed. She had a very specific list of things she could have.
So glad that the internet exists, because answers are easier to get nowadays.
I am prone to headaches/migraines, so I'm not sure if taking it causes one.

Here are some of the awful things of not having a gallbladder causes: often times not til years later! Like I said it's been 15 yrs and I was doing fine until I drank reverse osmosis water without mineralizing it for 3 yrs. And it stripped me of all my nutrients then I started drinking to combat the shakiness from the water poisoning as I call it.. then I turned into an alcoholic for 2 yrs and then I stumbled upon all these symptoms caused by not having this vital organ.

WOW!. so NOT having a gallbladder causes all these problems?
poor nervous system function, irritability, learning difficulties, heart disease,
poor blood sugar control, constipation, diarrhea, leaky gut, IBS, candida, dry skin, brittle nails etc etc.. All because you have NO gallbladder?? because you cannot digest EFA's and other important nutrients? No one ever tells you that you need to take Bile Salts and other digestive enzymes everyday for life. Yea they say your gallbladder is not really needed, it's not that important. Apparently IT IS!... I just stumbled on this info because it's next to impossible for me to lose weight and more than likely THIS IS WHY! oh did I forget to mention if you don't have a gallbladder you can end up with a FATTY LIVER years later? yea love love love that medical community! Anyways I ordered some digestive enzymes and you should try them to.. I prefer not to even eat at all anymore.. The only time I feel good is on a liquid diet and now I know why. Who wants gas, bloating and indigestion EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU EAT! Here's a few links to read about it. http://www.liverdoctor.com/what-to-do-if-you-dont-have-a-g…/

My friends had an 'intervention' with me about how sickly I have gotten and that I need to move in the next couple of weeks.

So, because I am not in *enough* debt already.....I am going to go all in at this point and pay for two different places to live for the next a couple of months because I am getting to the point where I just don't have the energy to properly feed myself anymore.

Sorry, I just saw this.

Confession time: I pretty much gave up on the day.....but okay, I will start putting my makeup on. If nothing else today I can at least tell myself that I got that far. :)
I know this was way back, but I went back in the thread looking for more L-theanine info. This post almost made me cry. I have days where I have to congratulate myself on getting all the way through makeup before getting too tired and giving in. I feel like it's an accomplishment to stay determined and make it that far, so maybe it's worth it just because I kept trying. On the other hand, I feel kind of silly for putting in the effort to do makeup that just ends up going to waste. I'm so glad to hear someone else say that sometimes just getting through makeup is an accomplishment for the day.

DAMN IT! I know I am highly allergic to nail glue. So allergic it put me out of commission from camming for a week because it casues my eyes to swell up like I was beaten up. My doc had given me steroids to take the swelling down and everything had been fine for the past week. So, forgetting I am highly allergic, I made hair extensions today by gluing wig clips onto strips of hair with nail glue (It works!). Think nothing of it.... just woke up and one o my eyes is starting to swell up again. I rack my brain and remember that I had gotten some glue on 3 of my fingers.
Thankfully I still had some steroids and this will go away in a few hours and it is not swelled up that bad, but damn it!!! I will now carefully throw all nail glue or all glue out. Crap, crap, crap. As crap, just remembered I am supposed to eat when I take those steroids. ugh, I am not hungry lol.

I mix 2 Tblsp. with water and drink it with a straw so it doesnt touch my teeth, but you can put it in tea or mix with honey and lemon, however you like. Braggs is a very famous brand because you want unpasteurized with the mother in ACV (the "mother" will make it appear cloudy or you will see sediment on the bottom). Braggs is not available where I live so I just use whatever brand I can get but its never pasteurized or filtered cause people here just would never think to do that :D. When I visit America and Canada I have used other brands as well with equal success but if you can get Braggs then you know its exactly what you want. I know for certain that when in America I can pick it up at Trader Joes. And take care, I really feel for you girl its a terrible thing to go through!

I've been doing really well lately. I've been eating on schedule, sleeping (mostly) on schedule, getting some light exercise, and still managing to get on cam for a bit. I was feeling awesome about myself, until today...

I woke up feeling really hung over today, and I can't shake the feeling. It's odd because I didn't drink at all. Warning - TMI to follow: Since hang overs are caused by dehydration, I wondered if I dehydrated myself last night with too much squirting. Then again, I drink a ton of water, so I feel like that shouldn't be possible. Also, (more TMI) my pee is almost completely clear, so it's hard to believe I could be dehydrated. This is so confusing and frustrating.

The only thing I could suggest is getting enough EFA's ( essential fatty acids) Like seafood, butter, cod liver or fish oil...avocado , olive oil . these things keep you hydrated.. recently I read that you are not supposed to drink so much.. It dilutes your electrolytes or something?? Only drink when you are thirsty.. do some research on that.. So maybe you drank to much water??..LOL

It could be very possible, it's a loss of body fluids. Drink more water than normal and see if that helps make you feel better. I drink a ton of water and was dehydrated before. If you think you drank enough, drink some more. I hope you feel better soon.
