Soaring Solo 2010

[Gardener]

fm, I was - and always have been - the same way, since back when the common derisive term for it was "health nut"

But I took those meds. As soon as I was diagnosed. I wanted relief, I wanted out. Fast!

They took a few weeks, but they worked. A few more weeks and my life suddenly became, "wait a minnit! I remember this guy!"

With that relief, I started research. A lot. Mostly The Ultra Mind Solution. I have a great Family Physician. She's mainstream,not naturopathic or alternative, but she's knowledgeable in it and respects it. She did tests. I was woefully low in a few neurotransmitter-supporting Amino Acids.I started taking them. They are OTC and cheap and they just boosted things further, so Dr. weaned me off ADs.

Anyway, sorry for talking about myself in your thread. I don't know the background to the previous posts, but it sounds like your friends are concerned about you, therefore so am I.

Thank you. Those two sentences pretty much describe what these boards are all about - why we're here for each other.

And with answering the responses I've gotten since yesterday, all I've been doing is talking about myself tonight! That's part of why we're all here, too, isn't it?

Good luck with the ADs. Monitor yourself and don't leave the monitoring up to your doctor alone. Due to side affects, etc. I tried three before we hit upon the right one.

Peace,
