Is palm sweating a side effect of cymbalta maybe

[gail]

AxleJames, sweating is a part of the symptoms also. You may be a bit nervous also.

Going for a nap and I have not forgotten you about my lovely story. Later.

[fishinghat]

Yea, heavy lifting can do it and the withdrawal just makes the affect worse.

[Axlejames]

Thank you both looking forward to it Gail

How long does the fish oil help for

[fishinghat]

As long as you take it. It is actually considered an essential nutrient. This never was a concern for nutritionists until about the 1930a when fish consumption (the major dietary source) began to decline in our diet. Now it is estimated that over half of our US population is low on Omega 3 in their system.

[Axlejames]

How long will it stay In my system i mean like I'm having some good benefits right now when will it wear off

[gail]

It won't wear off, as long as you keep taking it.

[Axlejames]

So like say 12 hours later it wont wear off

[gail]

For you AxleJames,

To put you in the context here, it's June 26 the of 2016. I will be having my left kidney removed in 4 days. I'm in a deep phase of anxiety and depression, not so much because of the surgery, sure but those phases I keep talking about.

I'm alone, as usual, crying and crying, feeling like shit, and through my tears, I see like something shiny near the patio door in my living room. I get up, I go on all fours as I don't have my glasses and can't see what it is.

It's a small beautiful rock, seems as though it had been polished, reddish color. I admire this rock, since no one comes to my place, the only logic thing for me is that it's from God.

I collect rocks as a hobby, and I know my rocks and it's not mine, plus I'm very ordely. The evening goes on, I can't stop thinking about this.

June 27th. Day after. It's noon, I'm talking on the phone with my friend. I'm n the living room, an ant waks by, I put my friend on hold as I take the ant and put it outside. I lift my eyes, and on the balcony, another rock, three times bigger, same polish with more colors. I almost lost my mind narrating this to my friend.

Now, one in the house and the other on the balcony, I live on the fourth floor with no one on top. Almost in shock, but I know where they come from AxleJames, there is no doubt in my mind. As Fishinghat had said, it's like God saying to me I AM YOUR ROCK.

Those rocks are magnetic. Museum of Science could not identify them unless I left them there for a specialist to have a look at them, no way, they said that those rocks are not found on sidewalks.....

They are sitting on my desk, and I look at them often. That's a miracle!

[Axlejames]

Oh wow this is amazing I don't know what I would do if something like that happened to me

[fishinghat]

AJ

The half life is 36 to 48 hours depending on the person. So if you miss one it is no big deal.

[Axlejames]

Of the fish oil

[Axlejames]

I only ask because I feel like I'm teetering again once again maybe it's just stress and being tired but for a few hours I did feel good

[fishinghat]

Yes, I was referring to the omega 3 half life.

[Axlejames]

Thanks fish

[invalidusername]

Interesting that you are calling him "Fish" and talking about Omega 3 oil 

 

LOL

[Axlejames]

Lol

[Axlejames]

It's been a so so day just feel like passing out but cant cause I'm so wound up about tomorrow and the wife and I just keep fighting

[invalidusername]

I am so sorry to hear about your domestic issues. I do hope they can be resolved for the sake of your anxiety.

 

But give yourself credit for getting through the day. Try to remain in the moment and let tomorrow take care of itself. Very difficult I know, but you can try Googling a little about Eckhart Tolle and the power of now. It is a very interesting philosophy to consider. Bloody difficult for those of us that suffer anxiety, but it might help you.

[Axlejames]

Didn't sleep great again super nervous about today and seeing my dr hoping they will listen to me

[Axlejames]

So obe thing that is plaguing me I realize is that on top if doubting my faith and my spiritual side I just doubt myself I seem to want to question everything is this part of the withdrawls

[fishinghat]

It sure does that to you. Everything is brought into question.

Like I said a few days ago Axle - you brain is not what is should be.

 

During withdrawal the chemicals get shifted. So whilst non-sufferers of mental health have a moment of anxiety/stress/depression, their tolerance starts from a healthy baseline of zero - or thereabouts. However, during withdrawal, OUR baselines are already halfway started BEFORE any such situations!

 

So lets say "situation A" occurs to non-sufferer and sufferer. The non-sufferer's tolerance moves to 30%. Not a big thing. They deal with it and move on.Now this is just about half the level of what we are starting with before any situation occurs. And then when the same "situation A" occurs to us, we are up to 80%. Something that cannot be dealt with easily, and takes a lot longer to move away from it.

 

Think of your brain having lots of these baselines for various emotions. We are working with a very skewed perspective. 

 

Hope this makes sense.

Now AxleJames, you take note of those few good hours. Keeping a daily journal is recommended here. I'm glad for that break you got, at last. Others to come my friend. Love.

[Axlejames]

Thank you this helps and so does the fish oil I cant believe it

[invalidusername]

https://www.amazon.c...id=G64E3111650K

Dozens and dozens of plant based Omega 3. Take your pick. Remember, high in epa and dha.

Thanks guys - I have been reading just now about other sources - flax seed, hemp seed, rapeseed oil, but much like everything, it is far easier to have everything contained with a simple capsule.

 

Was also reading up about apple cider vinegar and the honey/cinnamon recipe. Sounds good.
