Guest guest Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Hi , Well, I would think it probably does smell when you're detoxing, because that's one of the ways your body eliminates toxins.

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Are you taking any detox supplements? Certain supplements can give your urine a sulfur smell -- and it is stinky!

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 One of the things L.Ron noted about sweat detoxing is the unusual smell some people have . . .There have been times when the towel I used a sweat mop was putrid!

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Hi. I know that people on the guaifenisen protocol for fibromyalgia often go through that exact same thing of the smelly urine, and burning. It is because the body is dumping toxins. It is definitely a detox symptom. Make sure to drink lots and lots of pure water to help dilute your urine and that will help some with those symptoms and it will help your body move the toxins out. Also eating an alkalinizing diet will help. Good luck!

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Dearest Kathy: Nice to see you posting again, I have missed your lovely messages. Many years ago, I had an oily film on my urine, and saw it a few times. I wonder if I would still be here if this oil had stayed in my body? Yesterday, we saw our family doctor, and he is worried about my depression. I told him that our psychologist would be coming next Tuesday. Our doctor wants me to go on Zoloft to see if it will help me. I have never been able to take antidepressants, but I might try this drug for a while. My sister who has a silicone shunt takes this drug and she calls it her happy pill...this worries me. My symptoms are quite severe, but I am not suicidal, I just have no interest in anything. I must force myself to do everything...this is not good. Last night, when I saw that the FDA had approved these devices, I was so angry. How can they be so stupid, they know that these devices are not safe? The FDA should be sued, because Health Canada made the same mistake and they are being sued. What should we all do to stop this train of destruction? Love you..........Lea ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~` signs of detoxing> >> >Hello, everybody!> >> >This is a bit embarrassing. ..but when you are detoxing, do others> >besides me notice that their urine stinks?

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 Dear Lea It is good to be back! This is such a wonderful group. I am so sad to hear that you are feeling so depressed. It seems like you have been through so much..more than many people could take so I can totally understand your severe depression. As you may remember, I too was severely depressed for around eight years. Some if it was my husband's death, some of it was my illness which definitely affected my emotional state every bit as much as my physical state, and some of it was going through perimenopause. I can see that very clearly now. Everytime I skip a period I feel so much more stable emotionally. Then I start up again and there goes my mood. For the last 2 months, despite problems, I was amazingly upbeat. But then 2 weeks ago my period started (I had hoped I was in menopause!!!) and the depression, sadness, nervousness, grouchiness and increased physical symptoms were all back. The difference now is I know that it is being caused by hormones! That makes it easier somehow to tolerate. Like you, I can't take antidepressants either, I am very sensitive to them. But what you may be able to do is try some natural things too. There are some places that can test your neurotransmitters and help balance them out by amino acid therapy. Also magnesium has really helped some people. Taurine can be very helpful--especially magnesium taurate. Vitamin D really helped me with depression also. Also watching inspiring encouraging shows. I really love Creflo Dollar and Joyce Meyer--Christian speakers. They make me feel so encouraged. On the other side of the spectrum mindless comedy shows can help us relax and pass time until we feel some of the worst of depression pass. So we either need to encourage ourselves by deliberately seeking out music, books, shows, and people who rekindle our spirits, or find small (and I mean small) things in each moment to carry us through. Like for me, Hot chocolate, my puppy, my chilren's joy, fall colored leaves, birdwatching out my window, etc. I have heard it said (and I agree) that some depression is anger turned inward. When we are angry at things we can't control..like illness, death of loved ones, lawsuits that go sour, insurmountable problems(like your house)and there is no where for that anger to go--it turns into giving up and hopelessness. Once depression is intiated, it can jump from a specific depression caused by specific issues to a generalized depression caused by an imbalance of our carefully orchestrated hormones and neurotransmitters. Then it can become a vicious cycle. Getting out of a severe depression can take time. I am no longer severely depressed and life is so much easier to cope with. But I know that I will always be vulnerable to depression and most guard my heart against it. Lea I pray that you will find your way back out of this depression. Keep trying until something clicks. I know that for me, I kept praying and believing that God would bring me out of it. As far as the implants being back on the market, we can only do what we can do. Don't let yourself get sick over it. This world is full of evil and harm to others, and it is hard not to let bring you down when you want so badly to change it. But, as you have found out, if we let our emotions get involved (and how do we not?) then we are constantly upset and that in turn effects every good thing in life that God has given us. We have to find a way to deal with the bad things in life without becoming deeply emotionally involved. It seems you have put so much of your time and passion into the implant issue and now it must seem all for naught. That has to really hurt. But you can't feel that way. It wasn't and isn't. You have helped so many people and will continue to be an inspiration and fount of knowledge about this issue for others. You are such a blessing to this group.We will continue to tell others about the danger of implants and do what we can do. Evil and greed will always exist, and so will people who will fight against them. God bless you Lea, and you are in my prayers.

Not many people understand why I am so unhappy, but the women who have travelled down the same path as me are in the know. Our psychologist is coming to our home this morning and he always seems to have the answers, or at least we hope that he can help.The last time that I went through some deep depression, he asked me to make some nightgowns for our grand-daughters. He wanted to see them when he came back the next week. I did do this, but it was not what I wanted to do. Zoloft is not the answer...I have tried this before and it made me sick....more later.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 Dear Lea, I come from a family where several relatives, including my son, suffer from bi-polar disorders. I didn't get the cycling of moods that goes with that illness, but I have repetitive major depressive episodes, have since I was about 23 years old, and I'm now 64, be 65 in December! I had implants placed when I was 25 years old because of a pectus (a caved in chest, congenital); well, I had it done because I didn't like the way it looked, and the doctors were so persuasive about how implants would help 'fill in' and make me look better in my clothes, etc. Anyhow, I'm sure my repetitive depressions were part of my family inheritance, but when I really finally *fell* ill from implants, it was kind of a literal fall; I just suddenly it seemed felt very ill for no reason that I could think of; I had my implants out immediately, *knowing *somehow it was due to their presence in my body, I felt better for a bit, as most of us do, then I became ill to the point of being bedridden. It's been 12 years now, and during most of that time I had to battle depression along with SBD, and I'm sure that in my case I was prone to depression, but I also know that all those toxins made me much worse than I had ever been before. I've been on antidepressants ever since they came on the market back in the 70s, but when I was the most ill my psychiatrist put me on Zoloft because she said it was particularly good for people who also had chronic medical problems, that it was sort of 'gentle' on the system. How could she know for certain or predict it would be absolutely the one for me? Of course, she couldn't, but I trusted her over many years, and using Zoloft *was* very helpful for me until 2004 when I was hospitalized, and my medications were all changed around. I'm doing well on what I'm on now...so don't rock the boat I always say! But I just wanted you to know that Zoloft seemed 'gentle' to me...whatever that means! <grin> If necessary for you to try something, I hope it will be just as helpful for you. Depression is a cowering in the dark that never seems to end; it's awful stuff! I hope you and your therapist and your doctor are able to find you some relief soon.

I had implants placed when I was 25 years old because of a pectus (a caved in chest, congenital); well, I had it done because I didn't like the way it looked, and the doctors were so persuasive about how implants would help 'fill in' and make me look better in my clothes, etc. Anyhow, I'm sure my repetitive depressions were part of my family inheritance, but when I really finally *fell* ill from implants, it was kind of a literal fall; I just suddenly it seemed felt very ill for no reason that I could think of; I had my implants out immediately, *knowing *somehow it was due to their presence in my body, I felt better for a bit, as most of us do, then I became ill to the point of being bedridden. It's been 12 years now, and during most of that time I had to battle depression along with SBD, and I'm sure that in my case I was prone to depression, but I also know that all those toxins made me much worse than I had ever been before. I've been on antidepressants ever since they came on the market back in the 70s, but when I was the most ill my psychiatrist put me on Zoloft because she said it was particularly good for people who also had chronic medical problems, that it was sort of 'gentle' on the system. How could she know for certain or predict it would be absolutely the one for me? Of course, she couldn't, but I trusted her over many years, and using Zoloft *was* very helpful for me until 2004 when I was hospitalized, and my medications were all changed around. I'm doing well on what I'm on now...so don't rock the boat I always say! But I just wanted you to know that Zoloft seemed 'gentle' to me...whatever that means! <grin> If necessary for you to try something, I hope it will be just as helpful for you. Depression is a cowering in the dark that never seems to end; it's awful stuff! I hope you and your therapist and your doctor are able to find you some relief soon.Gentle hugs, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 Dearest : This morning, I have taken the time to read most all of your thoughtful messages. Thank you for joing this wonderful group. Most of my family are very easy going and happy...like my father. He loved life so much and I used to be like him; however, my life has changed so much. The implants made me sick from day one, but I never made the connection. I am sorry that you have had to go through this nightmare with us. We are close in age, and being 65 now is like being 45 in the old days. My doctors always tell me how young I look, but there are days when I feel like I am 100 years old. My depression is getting a bit better as we adjust to our new home, but I still have a long way to go. Honey, I did some research on Zoloft, and I will not take this drug. My doctor had tried me on this drug several years ago and it made me sick, but he thought that I had not given it a chance. His wife has been on Zoloft for 15 years, and she is not doing any better. The only drug that I can take is Xanax and it helps with the pain. Stay close and keep up the great work...love you..........Lea ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``` Re: signs of detoxing Dear Lea,I come from a family where several relatives, including my son, suffer from bi-polar disorders.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 Dear Lea, You certainly know best in this case! I wonder why many doctors have difficulty understanding that sometimes the side effects are not worth the benefit from a medication; even if, in fact, there is benefit from the medication! Interesting your reaction to Xanax; I too have found very small amounts of Xanax to be helpful with pain, and use it carefully. :-) I noticed others on the list using the expression 'stay close' and used it myself in a post one day. It felt so good to 'say' it, as it had felt good to 'hear' it from others. I bet you are the originator of the phrase! Love, >snip< Honey, I did some research on Zoloft, and I will not take this drug. My doctor had tried me on this drug several years ago and it made me sick, but he thought that I had not given it a chance. His wife has been on Zoloft for 15 years, and she is not doing any better.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 Xanax has silcon dioxide in it, I looked it up a few months ago (I can't recall the name of the site, but I remember I searched online for something like " prescription drug ingredients " .
