Re: Long answer
Your story at the end made me sad. :( I hate when I get suicidal thoughts. Such a terrible, terrible thing.
You have explained things very well for me. I think I will definately wait on the milk thistle and other herbs til I have done more flushes. I was confused about whether or not my liver was going to detoxify itself or if I was just "breaking" it by flushing and it wasnt healing. The way you talk about it makes me realize just how long term this process is, which is ok, it actually soothes me knowing something isnt wrong if Im not "instantly" all better. And I know my
Acne may not be due to just my liver, but I want to heal my liver for so many other reasons as well.
I kind of think Im lucky to even be alive with the terrible things Ive done to my body..I smoked crack cocaine off aluminum foil for a year of my life, I smoked marijuana and cigarettes every day for 6 years...Ive done acid, shrooms, ecstacy, you name it Ive done it. And the worst things, I used to drink large amounts and take liver killing drugs like vicoden and tylenol with codeine for recreation. All this on top of being on prescription anti-depressants and anti-psychotic meds my entire teens. Its honestly kind of a miracle that Im alive and my liver works as well as it does.
Thanks so much for your help!
