Feeling awful
I am feeling absolutely terrible today. I felt the same yesterday. My head feels cloudy and all I want to do is sleep. I cant concentrate on anything. I keep dazing off into space. I have been raw for three days now and have been doing pretty well with eating with the exception of nuts. I have this strong craving for nuts. I think I've eaten enough for fat content for the week! Anyway has anyone had these symptoms?

Some people experience those symptoms with... you guessed it... nuts. Or other fats. If you've eaten your fat allotment for the entire week, you've probably overdone it.

okay also experiencing the same feelings, only I wake up in the morning with a stuffy nose that drains all morning. Is this normal, because I dont feel sick nor is anyone in my family sick.....?

hummm, maybe I am overdoing the nuts. Yesterday and today I had apricots filled with macadamia nuts, honey and dried apricots. It was soooo yummy but, it gets me thinking......

I think it's a bit irresponsible for anyone to give you advice without you giving a complete breakdown of everything you're eating/drinking, any supplements etc., your activity levels, and your state of mind.

Yes, and they could well be nothing to do with food.
As we are all so interested in diet, we're very quick to try to pin our low days on something we've eaten, or something missing in our diets.
After trying to do this over the years (even pre-raw), then adjusting my diet in various ways to compensate, I've come to the conclusion that my 'cloudy' days, where I want to crawl into bed at 9 pm, are almost all to do with 'frame of mind', often connected with events in my life that are nothing to do with food.
Sleep is needed for psychological 'detoxing' as well as physical.

Hi Eisa,
It could be toxins causing the symptoms. I use Liquid Zeolite to remove toxins. If I had your symptoms, I might do a green juice fast for one day, or eat a few tablespoons of Vitamineral Green throughout the day, or drink a couple shots of wheatgrass juice. Good luck!

Yes !!!! Same here.... I used to eat TONs of meat.. prior to going raw... (I really did not transistion). I have a friend at work doing this with me - he feels the same.
We added a cooked veg meal... this spring for awhile - seems to help slow the detox a bit.
Be sure to get your minerals - they can make a big difference. I have been at this .. 95%+ raw for 7 months... and still detoxing...
It really depends how bad of shape you were in previous to your "awakening"...
Lifestyle also plays an important role (stress, exercise, air quality, water quality)..etc..
Hang in there !!

with a manual camera I used a slow shutter speed (1/5) and kept my head moving side to side. i used Photoshop to get the contrast and color look.
thanks -- it makes me really enjoy being sick!

Finally reconciled with my mother two years before she split the scene at the age of 95. Load off my mind.
She was tough, tough, tough, tough.
Jewish mother nagging shit, non-fucking-stop. Always fresh to her, always Hell to me.
Ha-Ha-Ha! Yah, womyn!! Glad ya said somethin
Ohh nice! Yea, they're addicting as hell. If it wasn't for the price I would look like the Berlin Wall by now.
Wow that's got to be tough. I think I would set myself on fire if I had to live with or near either one of my parents. I'm going to try to keep distance from them & keep a diary. Thank you for the support RGG
It hasn't faded any yet, but I've only heard of problems with some of the phosphorus inks and ours don't have any in. But who knows, the approved UV inks have only been out a few years and they're more expensive so not a lot of people take the opt...
Wow, I'd pay to see that

Yeah, he doesn't look like the healthiest 62 year old. Well, at least he seems to look healthy at a glance, but he looks a bit aged for 62, and he seemed to have a stiff jaw or something going on there.
And those doctors are the typical clueless ...
Summer saulting through the air is my favourite move. I sometimes do it mid-conversations when the person I'm talking to is dull.
Haha..love it!
In Europe, people don't have psychologists, I'm told, they have friends, get me? (I had a friend, she said talking made it worse, with her it sure did, for me anyways, was all we talked about, her issues. I just wanted to do her, had the chance to...
The Krishnamurti stuff seems right up my alley. Thanks for pointing it out.
Thank you AU. You read my mind, I love camomile tea! I'll try to slow things down & keep a diary.
Finn, will it fade over time like most white & pastel color inks?
Group tattoo, that's awesome. I like the camaraderie when someone with a misfit tattoo points to mine.
i have been in this situation myself personally a while ago,where i had sex in front of other people...its not something i would ever repeat...
