Hey Jinx

Sorry to hear what u are going through. i can honestly relate to these psychiatric effects, especially anger, and the fog.

I would seriously advise u quit taking the cilantro!

You seem to have attributed these effects to eating the cake, and yes it may have been a factor... but cilantro can be VERY dodgy for some of us, as it is a known mercury mobiliser. Its properties are not as yet fully understood.
For me anyway, the tiniest amount brings on seizures, paranoia and distorted thinking... can end up in a rage.

Selenium can also be dodgy for me. Having stopped supplements and brazil nuts some time ago, i tried an experiment the other day. I ate HALF a nut... few hours later, a right-side migraine started...pain has only just gone away. The seizures i had this afternoon actually kinda 'cleared' it up. Weird. But now theres a pain in the left side <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Anyway, my point is that possibly u too are sensitive to either of these substances. Perhaps a careful record of daily supplements/foods and symptoms might help explain what is going on. [By the way, i know how damn hard it is to do 'logical' things like this, but i believe we do have that capacity protected somewhere in our brains.]

Just my thoughts on the matter, it helps to know we are not totally alone <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
