I was depressed and suicidal for most of my life since childhood. When my amalgam fillings were removed in July of 2000, that all changed.

The following emotionally-related symptoms disappeared:

shyness

fear of the dark (I didn't have a terrible fear of the dark, more of a fear that someone was there or something bad was going to happen)

fears that something bad will happen while driving

fear of authority

fear of confrontation

inability to make a relational commitment

unable to trust myself

depression

inability to concentrate most of the time

songs, words and phrases constantly running through my head over and over

horrible short-term memory

inability to multitask (I had to finish one thing before starting another)

frequent suicidal thoughts

and many more.

These are all gone now!
