I don't know that I even experienced "clinically diagnosed" panic attacks, but I can tell you that all my life (with mercury fillings) I was a very anxious person. I always felt stressed, nervous, anxious and high-strung. In fact, I would say that on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being "panicked", I lived my life constantly at a 7-8 all the time. It didn't take much to put me over the top.

I also suffered low blood sugar all those years, and if my sugar levels dropped to low, then I definitely "panicked" and became horribly irritable, somewhat dizzy and nauseous and "desperate" to eat something.

I'm sure if I had ever gone to a doctor or psychiatrist, I would have been "diagnosed" with ADD, anxiety, depression, bi-polar disorder, and maybe even some degree of mental fragmentation. I honestly often wondered if I was "possessed" at times (like something or someone was controlling me)...I know that may sound ridiculous to some people, but at my lowest lows, I truly considered it a possibility. Remember, in the New Testament in the Bible, there's a story of a man who was "out of his mind" because he was possessed, but after Christ "healed" him, he became a normal person again, in his right mind.

One thing that contributed to my decision to have all my mercury fillings removed was a story I think I remembering reading in Hal Huggins' book It's All In Your Head that described a gentleman who was schizophrenic and had to be or was going to be institutionalized. He talked to himself and heard voices in his head, etc. After his amalgams were removed, he was completely normal...no voices, no more medication, he became a productive member of society again.

It saddens, angers and sometimes still overwhelms me that I spent the best years of my life (from 10-30) living the way I did. I honestly blame the mercury fillings for why I'm still single today and for many, many of the bad decisions I made during those 20 years. I couldn't think straight, I was an emotional rollercoaster, I couldn't remember things, I'd remember things differently than what actually happened, I had a very hard time focusing and concentrating, etc., etc.

Now that the mercury is out, I'm a different person. I'm no longer anxious or stressed all the time and I can relax and have fun...something I honestly wasn't capable of doing before.

It's hard to really explain to people how different my life is now. It's like I'm free from this "force" that controlled me and caused me to do and say things and even think things that I couldn't control. I no longer live in this perpetual state of "brain-fog" and uncontrollable thoughts and emotions.

I urge anyone with mercury (silver) fillings to get Hal Huggins' book and honestly consider getting this poison out of your mouth...no matter the cost.

Unfortunately, mercury causes debilitating side-effects like apathy, fear and fatigue, and by it's nature, makes people less likely to take action.

To me, having mercury in your mouth is no different than ingesting bits of lead or arsenic or even rat poison...small enough amounts may not kill you but they are still poisoning you slowly!

Take courage! There is hope for a normal, happy life, even after mercury poisoning...I'm living proof!
