Guest guest Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 This is great news I my self am doing a little better on 20mgs of HC and 2.5 grains of Armout. But trying to get some exercise is still very hard. I went on my Tread Mill just for 15 min.'s yesterday and it took a good 4 hrs. to recover.

I have always had a harder time with depression during the holidays (family issues, etc.) so that is major! I am not to the end of the tunnel yet, but what a difference! I was also able to restart taking seasalt in OJ a few days ago and it tastes good! Before, when I tried, it made me very nauseated. My adrenals were really low with high DHEA, so I'm guessing that was why. Yesterday was my brother's birthday! He passed away unexpectedly almost 3 years ago. I was able to feel more of a celebration for his life than major depression yesterday. Sure, I'll always miss him and be sad for the loss, but I am able to handle it now. An IRL acquaintance actually told me that since he was gone, his Birthday was just another day now with no significance. I say, it will always be a day to celebrate his life and memory! Happy Birthday, Chuck! Kris in GA __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just getting back to the point of being able to home school my kids and not be overwelmed by the idea of keeping my house up. (Of course right now, I've got to get it cleaned again before I can keep it that way. LOL) It exhausted me right after Thanksgiving just trying to get the tree and decorations up. As I said, I'm better, but with room for more improvement. I'm also not feeling the inner " rage " I was feeling as much. It seemed I could get very angry, very easily. Anyone else relate?

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 I can relate to the inner rage you have felt. I do get angry very easily and I know it's hormonal because I've had days where I've felt happy go lucky when hormones were probably more balanced and this moodiness gets to me even! --- camping_bees wrote: > > > > > This is great news I my self am doing a little > better on 20mgs of > HC and 2.5 grains of Armout.

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 I can relate--sometimes I really DO get very angry, but I try not to. I think I'm getting better, but NO WEIGHT LOSS YET. I can announce that I am now a full employee and will have health insurance right after the holidays. Oh, and finally, after 4 years of not, PAID HOLIDAYS. Finally! Now to find a doctor. . . Is 35mg of HC a good idea on a regular basis, or are you stress dosing? Just wondering. . .haven't added in the exercise yet, still kinda tired. I'm hoping the ten days off during the holidays will help me re-start all that. Later! Amy the Redhead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 Yes, I can relate to the feelings of inner rage when your hormones aren't balanced. I have a lot of free floating rage, not aimed at anyone or anything, just feeling angry a good bit of the time. I'm not on any HC yet. It'll be a month before I can afford to get the test and when I do, I HOPE my doctor who understands about Armour will understand my need for HC too. I just read his recent newsletter. It looks like he's learning, praise God, because he had something in it about adrenal fatigue and using saliva to test for it. I'll keep folks informed on if this severe irrational grumpiness goes away. Hensley Re: I am getting better!! I can relate to the inner rage you have felt.
