I figured I start a bit a different thread for recovering from LTC.
For those recovered and for those recovering who have made significant improvements. let's have a discussion about what of our efforts have been most effective and beneficial.
This is not a thread to discuss scientific theories about anything. It's purely to talk about what you have done and how it worked
Also. What have you done and received negitive results
Please let's avoid talking about what has not worked or gotten no results. It seems to be a pattern of people trying things for a few times and then complaining how it didn't do anything for them. When in reality that person might not have given it a long enough chance to get results
So let's only chat about what actually provided significant results and what has given us negitive results.
I'll start.
Emotional healing - I have been forcing my self to socialize more. Surrounding my self with positive people and positive influences. By doing so, I've actually been feeling a subtle love in my heart again. Even though I still feel quite flat emotionally. I've been happy and much more emotionally stable.
Also a lot of positive self talk actually goes a long way. Recently in times of depression. I will formulate mantras in my head of nothing but self motivating positive self talk. This shoves away the pessimistic voices in my head
Relaxation - I've been meditation daily. I try to meditate at least once or twice a day. If you would like any meditation advice. Please contact me. Find this is the one of the best things a person a can do. Its proven to positively change the way the brain is wired, in opposed to how we so negatively rewired it and it needs reversing.
I also found laying out in the sun in my hammock one of the most relaxing things I can do. I find my self just absolutely loving life one evening by just laying and lookind around my at nature and trying to just be in tune with nature around me. And I felt so amazing. So please find your self outside as much as possible. And just rest in the sun.
Supplements - I've previously been taking a whole ton of supplements. A few things that have a neurotransmitter effect, such as inositol, theanine, phenylalanine, 5-thp. When I stopped taking then all. I noticed that I have been able to sleep a much better night. And I wake up much better. I really feel that taking phenylalanine was actually causing me sleep issues.
I now only take a ton of fish oil, vitamin D and B, astaxinthan 12mg(a powerful antioxident) and that's it.
I drink about a gallon of water a day and have been noticing my fatigue is not nearly what it used to be.
I've also been going to yoga a lot. And I realize to make it a daily activity. Yoga is amazing a calming the body down as we can feel very tense throughout your body. Yoga can really help release a lot of negitive energy
And I of course go to the gym often. I try to do a lot of balance exercises. I read that balancing exercise helps to focus the mind and improve cognition. And I feel that is true when I do that. Its almost like meditation.
And also seek spirituality. Do what ever you can to find a connection to your "higher self" or meaning
I also go a job that helps stimulate my mind in a pace that that I can handle and not get stressed. This is helping ton.
I've done a lot that I didn't get the results I wanted. Such as IV amino acid treatment. I did not do it enough. Only 3 IVs because the treatment was a bit more than I was willing to handle at the time. So I can't say if it will work or not.
Anyone else. Please chime in with some specific things that seemed to provide the best results
What have you done that actually helped anxiety, brain fog, memory, depression or fatigue?
