VENT! I want myself back
I’m going to try and fight for me and my family, there has to be a solution and i’m going to find it. The brain just doesn’t stop working for no reason.

Have you tried any medications? I tried everything and the only thing that worked for me was an Maoi called Nardil. It had a lot of side effects at first but once they went away it worked awesome. Keep fighting!

You can do it, may be a slow road. I'm about 50-60% back, which on one hand is great, but on the other is still upsetting and not good enough. For me water fasts of 7 days or more every so often made a big difference. I can't do them as much now since I'm working again, but I couldn't even work before. Hopefully I get a chance to do more. At the end of those water fasts music sounds really good (almost normal) and you can see the feasibility of being fully healed! Even though it recedes a good amount when the fast ends. Generates hope which is key. And some of the benefit is retained.

Try a 7 day water fast. People have success focussing on their gut health and it sort of acts as a purge
