Or Excess Copper?
It sounds like you are doing well Marci.
I do try and control my thoughts, but there are times when my body gets so out of balance that even that is hard to do.
The past few weeks I have been teetering on a fine line of that - being able to control my thoughts and think positively and feeling despair.
I've been doing some researching and I think if I can figure out why my body is out of balance then I can make it better.
I tried the TMG and initially it helped, but then I got cold and the antidepressant effects went away. I felt crummy for most of today and then this afternoon I decided to take some zinc and I seeeeem... (hopefully) to be feeling a bit better.
Life is too hard right now for me to be a mess. I have got to be able to be capable of dealing with our challenges. Financial and otherwise.
Something else, our well water leaves a green/blue ring on all of our sinks. I read that can be an indicator of copper. Too much copper can lead to a zinc deficiency.
So that may be a possibility of what is contributing to my problems.
I don't even have the money or resources to have it tested or for any kind of water treatment device. Although we do have a simple filter underneath the house. I wonder if there is a filter that absorbs copper?
For now I guess I can keep taking a little zinc everyday and see if that makes a difference in how I feel.
