- can't make decisions - brain freeze

[Guest guest]

,

I just had a totally frustrating experience this afternoon where I

felt total brain " overload " and could not think straight and had

great difficulty trying to think through and make a decision. I

find, since I've been on these drugs, that over the past couple of

years I have great difficulty thinking through (clearly)and making

even what I would say are simple decisions. I can't get my brain to

work well enough to process through making decisions. I'm 42 yrs.

old and find it quite embarrassing and extremely frustrating that I

can't think clearly and make decisions. It's like my brain just

stops working. Is this due to withdrawal, or is it because there

has been damage done to my poor brain from all the mind-altering

drugs that I have taking over the years? Can my brain be restored

and this problem corrected or is this damage permanent? I get angry

just thinking about all those drugs the psych. doctor had me taking

for such a long time, not even aware, or probably not even caring

what damage it was doing to my brain.

After our conversation I got to thinking about what you said - that

I have nutritional defiecency that may be genetic because of both my

parents dying from cancer. Do I need to take somekind of digestive

enzyme or something that will help my body to absorb the proper

nutrients that I eat and take in by supplements so that I don't have

the same fate as my parents? Does my question make sense? If my

body isn't assimilating the nutrition that I am taking in everyday

is there something I can take that will allow my body to take in

these nutrients? What's the purpose of eating right and taking

supplements if my body isn't going to make use of the vitamins and

nutrients appropriately? What do you think? Is there a product out

there that can aid my body in absorbing and taking in the necessary

nutrients I need in order to stay healthy?

I don't know if you have an answer to the following question or not,

but there is alot of talk about antioxidants and other " stuff " that

a person can take to destroy the unhealthy " free radicals " that lurk

in the body just waiting to destroy a person's immunity system.

What are your thoughts and understanding about this and what do I

need to do to ensure my body and immunity system stays healthy and

protected. Maybe this is beyond the scope of this website and your

training, but I thought would run it by you anyway. I do want to

know what I need to do to - eat nutritionally and take

supplementally to build up my body's immunity system to fight

against the cancer cells in my body. Again I apologize if this is

asking questions that are beyond the scope of this group website.
