James,

I had the very same issues you mention in the first post and agree with Dawn and Nicola, get your adrenals and thyroid checked. I have been on ADR by PUR, its an adrenal supplement, for almost 10 months now. It takes a while to calm down, heal the adrenals. You can buy this product, but there are many natural adrenal support supplements out there. Its always recommended to get your adrenals tested first. ZRT and other labs do it. You need the one that tests your saliva 4 times in one day for accurate picture.

Getting adrenals well is a combination of detoxifcation and proper adrenal support. If you have both a thyroid and adrenal problem, the adrenal has to be treated first.

A book recommended by myself and others on this site is "Adrenal Fatigue the 21st Century Syndrome", www.adrenalfatigue.org by Dr. Wilson.

Of course getting well is like a puzzle being put together. You address the stressors (mercury, diet and lifestyle) then start on the other stuff.

Best wishes... it takes 1-2 yrs to heal adrenals.
