Bipolar boyfriend
I have a very sweet boyfriend I adore who has bipolar disorder and major anxiety. He is on and off medication - I can tell he hates being on them/relying on them, but he seems to be of the opinion this is his only option. We've known each other nearly a year, and have been dating a few months. He obviously knows I am a raw foodist and I NEVER push it on him. It is not my intention to change him, as I adore him for who he is.
I just hate to see him struggle with this issue and wish I could help.… Continue

- Hey lady, the info I was talking about can be found here http://www.cantron.com/html/Gh3.html. It looks odd but I have some faith in the cantron company, as my mother healed a tumor using cantron. My brother has been taking GH3 and has felt a big improvement, and he hasn't changed anything in his diet. I just started it (in time for the change of seasons, winter is hard), and I'll be honest, it is truly one of the most awful tasting things I've put in my mouth. But, if it works ... anyway, I think if you attend a cantron meeting it is cheaper to buy there. Best of luck!

- Hi : ) ... funny ... me too ... the same .
I have a story of Depressions , self-destruction ... but my story is not an easy one , a had a hard life , even if grown up inside of the highest level , Grande Bourjoisie . I had everything , all the objects I wanted to have ... but I was not aware of it . Also Service in all the levels . But not love . What I was expecting , at least . This is very individual .
Or even support ... or even to be perceived ... at least ... in my sufferings , as a little girl .
But MOBBING at work ( an International Company ) has destroyed everything . Hard to overcome . But I did . In a way .
Some material problems still there . But they were so immoral ... real traps ... and I was not perceiving .
...
But I have got a lot out of the Yoga Philophy , Spiritual Teachings - I am a Searcher - , and also ... very carefull with everything I was eating .
Vegan , I was born . So , a lot of Soja . Green Tea . A real help these ' beings ' .
All this - measures - helped me to survive . Really . Others would be destroyed , otherwise . Free Radicals ... & Co .
Even MedDocs , those who are + enlighted and unselfish ... recognize this .
And also ... false medications . They have destroyed a lot my Immune System , my nerves , my reactions .
...
I don ' t know him ... I mean you BF . But reading a book , or giving ... talking about , trying to convince ... I don ' t know . He can feel it as pressure .
On my case I would live him free . I ' m sure he would ask ... just ' show ' ... and if I would be with him all the time , I would take care of all this to him ... so , he would be more free to his own development .
Some medications help . BECAUSE they do not change the person . They live them as they are , in reality , before the ' schock ' . They just balance the chemicals inside of the brain . For instance : it is important to check whether he has a Dopamin unbalance ... or another Neurotransmitter unbalance . Rarely ' Bipolar ' is caused by Serotorin unbalance as MedDocs say .
These Medications are ' re-uptake inhibitors ' . So , the Neurotransmiter ' goes to the place they have to go ' . Well I know about that ... too much here .
...
I know about myself . I need a balanced life . A lot of Nature . Silence .
And money ... to buy the right Nutrition CONSTANTLY ... otherwise I get unbalanced - I feel terribly weak physically - and I go to things I normally do not eat ... as fuell ... then I clean my blood with Ginger and Lemmon . Or some herbs teas .
Sometimes not even money itself ( I live out of Health Insurance now , and before through mistakes of Social Workers who were supposed to help me ... ha ... ) . So , like this I have to eat - as little as I can - what is offered ( but no meat ) .
Well , even in being terribly urban ( Culture_Art_Fashion_Cafés ) I NEED Veg_Organic Nutrition , pure air , green around ... GREEN , GREEN ... Tranquility ...
I don ' t miss life in town anymore ...
I hope these infos are OK ... if not , just say .
Well I don ' t know your BF . I have given examples . They might help .
I know mine . My BF . Deeply . He is my TwinSoul .
A WONDERFUL BEING . He is .
He is above ... he belongs to the Stars ...

- And forgot : to give a book can be a pressure ... let him choose . He will say ...
...
Well I live Him free to say what he wants to . But he likes really what I do ...

How long did 50lbs last you? A week? I would recommend that a person get some greens to go along with their bananas.. did you forage for any greens that week?
Wow Id like to hear more on this from other people as well. I am not sure where to get info on things like this either- I just know my personal experience with a low carb diet. I still believe in low carb for the most part but plant based live foo...
That is a good point Angus. I have found that a lot of fundamentalist religions accuse everyone else of worshiping the devil and it like a blind hysteria- like all these other people have a black bible in their house and secretely worship a statue...
That's brilliant Angus, thanks....this will keep me busy for a while :)

Yeah really that was just my negative response to Arnold Ehret's book from an emotional standpoint. I just found it lacking in completion. There's good logic in it though.
First there'sDr . J. Tilden's book on the cause of disease. Toxemia Explai...

What other book can you recommend Angus?...staying with those kinda ideas, living in alignment with nature, natural hygiene, fruit diets, fasting (or anyone else :).
You know, I'm aware that we made some groundbreaking discoveries in recent years ...
I'm not going to comment on climate change. But i will comment on carbon trading. Because they can produce such a consciousness of fear out of global warming - they are able to manipulate markets much more severely - and they seem to get away with...
