Hi Bfree, the OCD symptoms were a combination for me. Amalgam removal and chelation were the keys to lessen the intensity of it. Plus treating candida also. It all helped to lessen it.

However, I think it would have been even better had I treated the possible brain mercury with ALA. I never did, because I was healing as the years were going by more and more and didn't think to bother with it.

However, when I got the virus and infections, that healing came to a standstill, so what I deal with now, is not quite the same. I have a tendency to withdraw (reclusive behaviour). I consider that a sign that I probably still have mercury in the brain or something and am more suspetible to it due to the lowering of my immune system from infection. Or these strange infections have a tendency to do much the same thing.

That's why I'm considering ALA at some point soon, but I have so much else to do, that I'm just a bit overwhelmed now with adding any thing else at the moment.

I cannot tell you if the OCD went away, because healing for me was over a period of time. I know they lessened substantially. The healthier I got, the more normal I became.
