Oh, also, I had severe depression has well. It was a catch 22. cant stay raw cause of depression, cant get out depression unless staying raw.
Then I got desperate enough and read books on treating depression without drugs.
Amino acid supplements...
Anyway, Please just share you're experience and not your morality stances or feelings about whatever. This disccussion has a simple goal. which is will probably not reach and I will have to delete it!
Profile Information
- About Me:
- I came to raw foods in hope of healing. Most of my teenage/early adulthood was spent emotionally unstable and I put my body through the stress response almost daily. Before I started getting noticeably sick (fatigued, malaise, brain fog, low concentration, list goes on and on) to a point where I had to quit college and later work, I had been living off of chips, dip and beer.
After trying various diets to address the candida imbalance, I only found temporary relief. One day, while devouring every book I could find on nurtition and health at the local library, I came across a raw foods book. It immeditately clicked and have always known since that day, that this is the path I need to be on. Still trying to figure out what version of the raw diet will work best for me (after many mishaps/miseducation). I'm increasing my raw intake overtime and have developed great habits. I love a daily green juice and green smoothie and hope to be doing 100% this August/September.
I believe in love and that anything is possible. :D

- Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
- Mostly do energy soups, green smoothies and green juices. If I could, I would live off of raw junk food, aka: walnut and date bars

- Sports/games, jig-saw puzzles, animals/nature, knitting, spiritual growth, Eckhart Tolle, online poker, arts and crafts, other cultures, etc.
