Well Jer,

Your ould Buddha had a fair bit of success with serotonin or so the story goes. From the figs he ate sitting under the tree. And look what it did for him?

I wonder how much we could emulate his balance in this department with twice daily mediation. Meditation even. I used to do this, Transcendental Medication, oops, lololol, hahahaha, Meditation many moons ago and it did me a power of good. For some bloody reason I find it very hard to get back into this very healthy habit.It's not like I don't have the time!

What is this resistance about I wonder - in me and in others. We do resist, don't we, very often, that which is good for us and which we know is good for us?! Funny creatures. Im in traing as an EFT practitioner and that is the first thing we do in a session, test for psychological reversal which is the resistance. I have answered my own question now have i not. I need to tap for my own resistance to healthy habits.... amazing how productive a conversation with myself can be...

Not meaning to make light of your situation by the way, just a spontaneous thought.

Love from Mo x

Hi ,

It just takes so so long for it to settle down as each year goes by I find myself getting better all the time it's been 4 years off for me this coming feb.This time last year i was still a mess. I don't stutter like i did that's almost gone for me, word retreval is still pretty bad but i don't half make up some good ones to fill in the blanks lolol my husband laughs because some of them are so close to the word i am looking for.When i look at words they sometimes say something completly different to what my brain sees.I can sit and spell a word about 4 or 5 times and it never looks right no matter if it is or not.I still have nerve trouble mainly with my insides. Still an odd brain zap now and then.Memory is still a big problem.This might sound negative to some who read it but it's not I am on the road to getting better, as far as i am concerned I am winning and it's been a long road back.I can't forget that the gasto doc put me on elavil for 3 months just over 2 years ago which probably didn't help me any.

Hugs Ros

Dear ,

You said:

<<With long standing symptoms like mine, will serotonin levels

EVENTUALLY level out of their own accord?

Is time the healer?

Is there a case for trying to help ease them down?

how could this be done?>>

** The action of permanently affecting serotonin levels is an

inexact one because we don't know enough about serotonin to do this

properly. Yes, this does bring up the obvious question, " Then why the hell

are they putting out drugs that manipulate serotonin?? "

The answer, of course, is $$$$$$$$.

Though we cannot with any degree of predictibility or accuracy

permanently tweak your serotonin levels, we can do this on a temporary

basis.

Take a look at my email to titled " Re: update - vitamins, blood

vessels " . You'll see things here that reduce serotonin.

I'm also going to talk about some other things along these lines very

soon--some time this week.

You said:

<<Is my question over simplistic, am I being a jerk>>

** No, and no. All questions are valid.
