Guest guest Posted June 17, 2001 Report Share Posted June 17, 2001 Hopefully, my drama is over. I'm doing well. Sorry for using this list as a sounding board, best friend, or compassionate listener. Now that I'm coming out of the fog, I'm finding I do have the ability to have social contact here in Eugene. I'm making some new friends. I'm a wee bit embarrassed for my list revelations, but it's ok, not really. It did some good. But some people I know do reject me here in Eugene for my past illness manifestations in my life, and so I assume the depression syndrome and symptoms are not well understand by everyone here either. Oh well. No problemo. By the way, for those with depression, I'm finding that the oil alone for me was not enough. I think the initial rush it gave me was the return of my dopamine function. But this wasn't everything. After about a month I sank again, and to get out of this relapse, I read some more stuff, and learned about the importance of specific vitamins and aminos, and the high dosages required to cure depression. So I bought some more supplements, amino acids, B vitamins, and others, and now that I'm taking alot of these, along with the oil, I seem to be achieving a steady state of energy, ability to handle the days normal stresses without collapsing, freedom from panic and paranoia, and so on. I also was able to part with being so addictive, and the part of life known as romance no longer constantly pesters my psyche. I'm also doing all the wholistic things, not just popping pills. I listen to my body, and care about myself more now. I excercise regularly, pay attention to my kids more, listen more to people hopefully moreso than talking to them, appreciate, love, give, be calm, take deep breaths, expect unfoldment without hurrying it, take one step at a time, believe in love, believe in the goodness of others, and the necessity of death as a part of life, and so on. Last night a bhajan band was here in town. They had a nice concert. The best of Eugene was there. It was like a meeting of the most heartfelt hindu-style devoted people in Eugene. Lovely. It was good. So many fine hearts and minds were there. I felt surrounded by good souls. At one point we (200 people) chanted Om together for about 5 minutes. It was awesome. The sound vibration was awesome- like floating in heaven amongst a ton of humming angels. I couldn't believe it, it was great. I'd never experienced a group om before. I was very happy. I danced my heart out. Thanks for listening, dg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
