Re: Going to try to heal adrenals on my own, a little scared...

I figured that might turn your world upside down a bit. Yeah, I understand the need to be creative and the fear of stopping what you are doing. I felt the same way. I'm suggesting, if you can, to take a break while you're ahead. I haven't been able to make art for 6 months. I haven't been able to go on a walk for 8 months. I'm virtually house bound minus a few (I mean FEW) trips to the health food store and the doctor's office.

I don't know if anyone could have convinced me to stop what I was doing before I did, but I know for sure that I adored what I was doing. I hung on as long as I could. Dr Lam actually suggested that I move home and it was right after that conversation that I had my most severe and debilitating crash. I don't think I could do anything besides focus on breathing for a week straight. I could barely move. The only thing that kept me alive was my mantra: "my body is in the process of healing and will continue to heal until I'm vibrant and healthy.". I repeated it over and over and over.

If you can take a break, a real solid break, you could still make art and poetry and cleanse and heal your body. But if you don't, you take thechance of really not being able to do those things. I made a vision board last weekand I could barely cut with scissors. This is what I was doing before I got sick: http://www.elizabethdangelo.com
