Anxiety can come from many directions: mercury, adrenal fatigue and thyroid problems. Diet contributes to all of these. Anti-candida will help, carefully taking supplements also. If you've got the time go to the post by Nina. There is some great advice there on supplements, diet, etc .by Sunshine. I also posted some info to assist you with adrenals / thyroid. All of these are interconnected. It's hard to say what came first, amalgams attacking the body or the body breaking down and the amalgams then assisting. However, diet and supplements are essential with chelating at levels that DO NOT exacerbate your symptoms. If you feel more edgy, more fearful, anxious, etc. during chelation then maybe your dosage is too high. Consider taking half of what you now take and see if that helps.
