This story in the New York Times speaks issues we've talked about on this blog before: Some of the first eerie signs of a potential health catastrophe came as bizarre deformities in water animals, often in their sexual organs. Frogs, salamanders and other amphibians began to sprout extra legs. In heavily polluted Lake Apopka, one... Continue Reading →
I ate well and exercised and still gained 100 lbs. I was not a glutton nor was I lazy. The truth is you can do everything right and still gain weight on psych meds. The problem is a society that hates fat people, the problem is not you. I'm off all weight-gaining drugs now. Not because they made me gain weight---I actually got used to that --- but because they are neurotoxic in general and I realized the likelihood of dying early on a huge cocktail of these meds was likely. I also realized that my emotions and spirit and soul were muted to the point that I had a kind of deadness inside of me. I did not want to live like that anymore.
Today I called my neuropsychologists office. It was when I met him that I decided to start the journey off meds. It was a gradual process. First he simply said he believed it was possible for some people to get off meds and he shared stories of people he had assisted with neurofeedback to free... Continue Reading →
I DO NOT RECOMMEND IV nutrient therapy for withdrawal. While they may not cause any harm they are most likely a waste of money. I do think that on occasion some people do find them helpful, but they did not help me at all and most people I know who've tried them felt the same.... Continue Reading →

BPA is coming to be known as a potent estrogenic substance that harms everyone and animals too. See these articles for more info: Plastic... Continue Reading →
A movie that looks like it's worth watching. Food Inc. A movie by Robert Kenner. It's supposed to be in theatres this month. UPDATE: The last long segment in this Colbert Report is interviewing one of the producers from this movie.
A mothers discovery of one thing that happens when one is exposed to processed foods. Processed foods are implicated in multiple mental health problems as well. On ABC news. (a video) This can happen to anyone and as the mom said it's a wake up call. What they don't get into is how many deep... Continue Reading →
I feel compelled to write today about my experience. I don't do that too often anymore as I have very little good to say. It's not that I don't think I'm progressing and moving forward, because I do think I am, but the degree of difficulty and suffering I'm experiencing as a result of the... Continue Reading →
What is up with me? I'm sure you're all wondering. I wrote this post a long time ago without outing who treated me. At the time I still thought they might actually be honest people who had simply erred in ignorance. That is still probably true for the majority of the staff, but I have... Continue Reading →
You think maybe something wasn’t quite right? This journey started the summer of 1985 and is about to end this summer of 2009. I have been withdrawing the past 5 years. Nothing ever did work and in retrospect much made me worse, hence the withdrawal process that began five years ago of which I am at the tail end. Many times on the “trials” of these drug
