Bi Polar to sandkmoore

Something to consider on this is that she likely has a biochemical

disease cause by some toxic exposure in her life. I noticed that

Synthroid was one of her medications, which is for thyroid disease.

Thyroid disease is usually caused by either toxins in our air, food,

water, environment or from radioactive exposure. The most common one

is toxins in the water or from mercury exposure via amalgam fillings

and vaccinations. Synthroid is not the most effective medication for

thyroid disease...Armour seems to be much better so she might start

with a switch there. Their website lists docs in each state the

prescribe it.

 

My sister was on all kinds of bipolar medications and nearly died

from them in her 20's. My parents then intervened and told the docs

they are

going to sue if they do not get her off all the shit (meds). They

slowly took her off all until she just was on one. However, she has

never really had success with that. I told her to start taking tons

of flaxseed oil and other nutrients which has helped.

 

The other thing interesting about this is alternative docs believe

bipolar is really caused by thyroid disorders or the like and that

was caused by toxic exposure so it becomes a chain reaction. We are

all " toxic " in my family, but I recognized that it was more dangerous

for me to go on synthetic drugs so I refused then they wanted to put

my on nearly 20 years ago. I now know that my problems were caused by

mercury exposure and radioactive exposure that only gets worse as you

age. So now I am going to do chelation to eliminate the toxins and

see how my body reacts. In the meantime, I take vitamins and

minerals, and TONS of flaxseed oil which helps the depression. The

next step is to get all my fillings removed.

 

I suggest your friend research and learn more about the biochemical

causes of her disease instead of trusting her doc. She can always go

to a different one without her current one knowing...an alternative

doc. Some good sites here on that she could to are:

Hypothyroid, Autism-Mercury, and Adult-Metal-Chelation. These sites

have helped me tremendously and I learned about the mercury/metal and

thyroid connection from these. There is also a lot of discussion

about which tests to have run to determine toxicity and if that is the

problem. Bi-polar or manic-depressive is extremely common in heavy

metal poisoning. Andrew Cutler also has a great book on this and

steps you can take to help yourself with or without a doc. It

certainly cannot hurt her.

 

I fear she will only get worse because if she is toxic not only is the

damage cumulative (gets worse each month that goes by) but adding the

medication can actually screw up her body more by injuring the liver

and pancreas and making it harder to get rid of toxins. If the meds

are not helping, then she has nothing to lose by getting off them but

I think one step at a time. Maybe switch to the Armour, then get off

the other step by step while starting a detox program. At any rate,

she should try the support groups I listed because she will find her

problems are not as rare as she thinks and also a lot of extremely

supportive and informative people who are so encouraging and have

helped many others who were at suicidal points.
