Re: Copper Detox - Psychological Symptoms

Hi SeattleTom,

Thanks for your comment. I have reduced my zinc intake and things have been much better the last few days. But still, these symptoms still take me a little by surprise - yesterday for example. Driving across town, and just the stress of driving was enough to put me into a bit of a bad mood. But that's more adrenal than copper. It's what PUTS me into the bad mood that feels all coppery - silly, paranoid thoughts. I feel like I've got a real victim mentality at the moment. My moods are so irrational that it's not often until afterwards that I can get a bit of distance on them and then be able to see that yes, again, I fell into the ditch.

It's a bit depressing, to be honest. But then it's easy to lost perspective about these things. You just have to roll with them and remind yourself that it's not forever. I think this is where meditation is good. I've been way out of the loops with my meditation practice - and it makes such a difference.

Very glad to hear about your body getting on a roll and being able to chelate the copper itself. How do you feel nowadays? Have you noticed a difference in how your body feels with less copper running around it? Tweet
