[Guest guest]

Hi , Yes its by a reputable writer,, lol,, its by Cousens MD... you will love it hon,, lemme know when you get it too,, hugs jaxHunter wrote: Thank you jax! I was also treated at the VA for the depression. I tried about 8 different drugs, all of which had some strange effect. Maybe the side effects were all in my head, but that makes no difference really. They seemed real enough at the time. Food however, is a different story. I can eat near anything... and do! I'll try to get my sister to send me that book. I assume it was written by a reputable author.?.? Eat well, sleep well, be happy!Jackie on wrote: welll , from one weirdo to another, hehe,, just kidding hon... I love your sense of humor,,and I have a really off the wall sense of humor,, had to when working on the ambulance,, wouldnt have survived if I hadnt had a bloody sense of humor!!! I too suffer from depression.. Im learning about supplements for brain chemistry and will be moving towards treating my depression that way as I get closer to being done with my studies.. There is a wonderful book you might be interested in purchasing ,, its called "Conscious Eating" and it talks about brain chemistry and how one can effect a change of depression by certain foods that help to stabilize the seretonin and nor epi in the brain.. just a thought hon! hugs, jaxHunter wrote: I know what you mean about it being difficult to stay positive while on RX. The INT+RIB treatment was very hard on me. I have shunned all western medicines since. I would do without the herbals if I could stay happy enough all the time, but I battle chronic depression. Some days I'm fine. Others, less than fine. The herbals give my liver a better chance of staying healthy, even on the down days. I know you won't kick me out just because I'm weird. I like to think of myself as unique, just like everybody else. Hugs, Eat well, sleep well, be happy!Jackie on wrote: AWWW chris,, actually YOU ARE Right!!! being in love IS a choice,, the other is lust,, so one

CAN choose to be in love with someone,, I was so very fortunate to meet my a year before I found out I had this awful virus,, he has been my rock and has helped me to make it through tx along with all those here too.. but I would have to say that I agree with you fully that being in love with someone and keeping a positive outlook on life CAN make the difference in tx,,, however,,,I remember how hard it was to keep a positive attitude while feeling so crappy on tx,, NO way are you going to get ignored,, you are part of our family here now,, we dont do that to anyone,, unless they become a maniac and start calling names,, hehe,, only have seen that twice here in all the years I have been a member! hugs jaxHunter wrote: Please, please, please! Don't

apologize. It's not needed in this case. If you were reading posts here, it would be very easy to think I had specific plans... I did! If you missed one of my posts you might have no idea that she called off the wedding. No big! I have become pretty darn good at handling rejection. I'm glad you've been in love before, even if only once. I think its the best feeling! I credit my turn-around in health to the fact that I was in love. (Very happy for three months of more.) Nothing else changed. Not my diet, meds, sleep habbits, etc. It must be love. So, I suggest to everyone that reads this: Find somebody to love! then tell them you are "In love" with them. Then tell many people that you are "in love". You will begin to believe it, and that's all that matters. As for there being "a" special person... Maybe. I think everyone is that special person. It is just a matter of

timing and looking at the person with loving eyes. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. So, now that I've truely expossed what kind of nut I am, I suppose I'll be dropped from the membership list, put on "ignor" by all who know me from here, and have to find a new place to write my crazy ideas. I REALLY doubt it. People here are too loving and understanding for that. ((((((((((Group Hug)))))))))) Love to all, Eat well, sleep well, love! Davies wrote: I apologize, I thought you were making wedding plans as in getting married to someone in particular. My fault - I didn't read correctly. I believe there is someone out there for everyone, and I also believe there is a difference between loving someone and being "on-love". In my 41 years I have been "in-love" once, although I have had relationships and loved others, I just wasn't in-love. Anyway, I feel very blessed to have known it once, so if it happens again, GREAT - if it doesn't I am just happy for the time I did have... You sound like a very special person, and I am sure you will find that one special person - just don't ever loose hope my friend. Don't ever give up or give in Love, hugs, and prayers marie -- I think my results improved because... . I have been "in love" and very happy for the last three months.Hey , and everyone else for that matter, if you have time, can you find something that quantifies or validates the idea that being happy is good for your health? Let¡¯s see how much proof we can bring together in the next few days. I¡¯ve known/felt this to be true for quite some time, but in today¡¯s world of scientific proofs, and ¡°accepted¡± knowledge, I¡¯d like to have something to point to and say, ¡°You see! It¡¯s not just me, this study proves it.¡±I just got test results back from my latest blood test. My meds have not changed, and my previous tests showed my condition

worsening. I was not as happy at that time as when the blood was drawn for my most recent test. I was very happy, in love, and planning a marriage when my most recent blood tests were drawn. Today I went to get the results, thinking that I will have to go back on Inf+Rib again. My doctor says, ¡°I¡¯ve got great news for you!¡± And she most certainly did. All liver functions are in the normal range, and my viral load is the lowest its been since it returned after TX. So, I conclude that it is either happiness, being in love, or planning for the future that caused a spontaneous increase in my overall health. I think one big part of being in love is the happiness that comes with it, and that the planning I was doing also gave me feelings of happiness, since I was planning happy stuff.Today I¡¯m very happy! And tomorrow I will wake and say ¡°This is a great day, and I¡¯m

happy to be alive!¡±Magic WordsMagic words are magic seedsIn our minds and in our deedsOur words when spoken Become a tokenOf our consentAnd our intent¡°I am happy!¡±And I am.Eat well, sleep well, be happy!
