I just thought of something...
Maybe that's why my husband fights with me so much...
This may be one of those 'ah hah!' moments.
Sorry about that, I guess I'm just sensitive from my Iodine itching. Heh he. Seriously I have self esteem issues about fitting in, wherever I may be. I will try not to take things the wrong way.
Forgive me?
I am very appreciative of all the old posts. There is a lot of amazing stuff here and it has helped me inmeasurably.
Please forgive my comments. In fact I should delete them.
I'm just excited about my experience with Iodine and want to share what I'm going through. I posted some of it on this other weight loss forum where I post also and received lukewarm responses of "oh be careful. I've heard Iodine can be harmful" etc. So I wanted someone else to get excited with me, and I assumed the reaction when I posted here was " we've heard it all before, just be quiet now."
It would be nice to have someone at least pretend some joyful excitedness to humor the new guy (girl).
Howdie. After reading your posts, it reminded me of, me. My wife and I came into the world of iodine via the topical use of iodine after a major joint replacement surgery for her, and I did some research and came across some discussions of internal use. Zow, I thought. After research on here, I dug in and tried it. Almost immediately experienced a sense of euphoria, mental acuity sharpened after years of on and off brain fog, skin became almost immediately supple. All cool. Then, started having wild dreams. Remained wide awake as I felt, way awake. Then slept too much. Started itching like a flea infested dog. Moods went from joy to ultra crabby. Hands and feet became ice cold, then hot tingly, over the course of a few weeks. And other things.
I thought I was losing my mind. Read more into the forums, asked questions, and when someone finally pointed out by asking, "are you salt pushing, selenium, Vit C, coconut oil", and I began to do those things routinely, did things start to fall into place.
This thread made wonder what it would be like to go back and look at my very early posts, because they had to be those of a mad man. I was all over the map, but thankfully folks here eventually supplied bits and pieces, and things started to fall into place. Everyone seems to have similar, and different, stories. I was at times bonkers, but knew that sticking with it and hopefully not PO-ing everyone in my vicinity in the process was the ticket. Am glad I did.
I just remember when I started into internal use of iodine, it was like the coolest thing. Several notable changes happened pretty fast, and I liked them all. Began to advance into the usage and being me, like a lot of people, I mean... who reads directions right? So then things started to go bonkers, like anxiety, short temperedness, hot and cold, and a slew of other things, and saw myself taking it out on other people... well, knew I had to calm down and ask wuzzup on this forum.
Once I took the time to read, and follow directions, and listen, things started to sort out. I still don't read directions first on most things, but t'was well worth it on iodine.
