Guest guest Posted March 8, 2002 Report Share Posted March 8, 2002 Dear Lynques, Your following post brought a lump to my throat and then a tremendous feeling of pride in you and my fellow man. The fact that you did not fall into the psychiatric trap of causing you to self destruct and giving up your family, and the fact that you took FULL responsibility for yourself and decided to be "CAUSE" over your own life rather than leaving it up to others can only serve as a stellar example to others that each and every one of us must decide what is true for ourselves. I highly commend you. Much love, Doc Ian "Doc" Shillington N.D.505-772-5889Dr.IanShillington - lynques herbal remedies Wednesday, March 06, 2002 3:14 PM [herbal remedies] Re: Bipolar I was diagnosed with bipolar back in the `70s and the doctors put me on Valium. I told them that I couldn't take care of my husband and kids, not to mention myself on that. The doctors recommended I give my children up so I could just focus on me. Well, I didn't. And I stopped taking Valium and I didn't go back to the doctors either. If that was their solutions, I would research myself. It took about 20 years, and I finally found the right program for me. A combination of seasonal cleansing (total body), a mainly vegetarian diet, exercise, meditations, some herbs, and other things….it wasn't only one thing. And if anyone thinks just herbs can do it, they are wrong. For me, it was getting my body balanced. While I was predisposed to it, it wasn't until my ex hit me in the neck and damaged my thyroid that the bipolarism showed up. It took years to figure out the majority of my triggers. Last year, after 10 years symptom free, someone said but you have changed so much, you probably didn't have bipolar, and then six months ago, my daughter said the same thing. After the first person said that, it did get me to wondering, so I have been on a yearlong "research project". No herbs, no cleansing, not much exercise, no meditation, the "old" diet…….and I can tell you, it came back full force. It did take about 6 months for it to manifest, but manifest it did. So, now that I know, on March 20, I will be starting my program again. And I do look forward to it. I don't like this "me"; I want my improved me back again.By the way, Vit. B complex was one of the things to help with the depression in me. It does help to lift it, in my opinion. I would also like to know where to get that lithia water you were talking about.So, for me, Cleansings were the thing that really turned it all around, and brought me up out of the hell I was in mentally. And combined together, they do help me. I think it is not only the cleansings, but also finding out your body's "weak" area. In me, it was the thyroid and being brought up on the "standard american diet". Oh, and it took two years of the program before I was stable. I got better the whole time, but I guess you could say, I had finally reached my "level" and then stayed there for 10 years before this year of research. So, now the year is almost up, and I can look forwards to being who I really am.Doc, looking forwards to your article.Lynques Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
