With regards to people wondering if they are "poisoned by their amalgams", I just wanted to say the following:

The more I know about what mercury amalgams can do to people, both emotionally, physically, psychologically, behaviorally and psychiatrically, I believe that so many millions are poisoned and have absolutely no idea that there's even anything wrong with them. I personally observe a lot of these people now and in my gut, I know they are poisoned by their amalgams. Many of these people just accept themselves as "the way they are" even if they are pretty messed up, e.g. Oh, he's always had a very bad temper" or Oh, "she's always been very high strung and emotional" or oh, she's always been very hyper and fearful.

For example, my neighbor is a 44 year old woman who has worked as a dental assistant for 20 years in a practice where they have always placed amalgams (murderers). This woman's mouth is also full of amalgams. She is so emotionally unstable and has lots of behavioral problems as far as I can see. She also has a very poor attention span, her mind wanders when you talk with her, she cannot focus and she keeps saying things like, "I don't know how much longer I can take it, I can't sleep, I can't eat, etc. She is basically a wreck. Now personally, I believe she is highly poisoned with mercury both from her work environment and her amalgams. However, when I've tried to approach her with this subject, she just thinks I am crazy. The other problem I've noticed when trying to pass this on to people is that it's tough to do with people who are fairly illiterate and who don't really read. You have to be somewhat educated to read and understand the material, and many people are not and this neighbor of mine simply won't read anything. So how can I help someone like that? She just keeps going to her doctor asking for sleeping pills and tranquilizers.

I personally have become very passionate about this issue, as a victim myself currently undergoing chelation as a means to recovery, I intend to do a lot to help stop this madness. Last month I told my boyfriend this was 'TYRANNY". He thought I was being a bit too dramatic. Then I showed him how Russ used the same word the other day. Thanks Russ!
Bottom line: We have been tricked and poisoned and many people have already paid with their lives, first suffering badly and then dying young, e.g. MS, because they unsuspectingly went to dentists and trusted the dentist was doing something good for them. I am horrified and I am livid, especially when I think of the people suffering so badly with mental illnesses who are in mental hospitals and get very little relief if any from psychiatric drugs, who may kill themselves, all because of their dental amalgams. I feel so helpless and I can't stand this feeling of helplessness to stop this!! Thanks for letting me vent.

Sandra,
I know what you mean about recoginizing the symptoms in others and how they think that it is just their personalities etc. My husband is a good (really it is bad) example of someone who is totally in denial that anything going on with him can be because of the influence of the mercury (and in his case also the tons of aspertame he drinks each day). He FINALLY believes that this is the reason I have been sick, but says that he weighs so much more than me that it will take several more years before he starts to have problems. HA! Even the kids see how unreasonably irritable, hyper, easily angered, and many other things he has going on. It is very frustrating to have the truth and others don't want to hear it, they just want to complain. Its nice to be able to hear from others that are dealing with the same thing.

Sandra,

I completely agree. This is why I call this issue:

"THE HEALTH ISSUE OF THE NEXT DECADE".

It's hard to convince people (especially family) about the "hugeness" of this issue. It's especially hard for people who are suffering from it to be convinced that it's really the source of their problems.

And about the emotional effects...

There are profound implications here. I believe the Biblical prophecies I often link to that say the nations were deceived because of their sorcery (which is really the word 'pharmakeia' - far-mak-i'-ah - See Quote Here ) are directly related to mercury and drugs; pharmaceutical and not, plus a few other things.

I have been rewarded something greater than I ever imagined by having my amalgams out: My myriad of fears and timid feelings?especially akward social feelings?are GONE. I am like a new person. I cannot express how different I am and how much has changed with not only my health, but my emotional strength.

I too can meet someone and by observing their personality traits, tell if mercury is involved. It's so clear now that I've had a little while to observe it while not being under its influence myself.

The mind is made to be clear, focused, disciplined, brave and many other things that?for many?it is not today because of the effects of mercury (and a few other things).

If only people will believe this and then share their success stories so others will also get free of this. I have provided several forums and websites where I will post stories if people send them to me.

Anyway, I agree completely. Mercury is responsible for countless costs, both physical and emotional.

I agree, Sandra.

I believe that my mother's many problems are caused by mercury. She won't listen, though or have anything done about it. I can hardly bear to think about it all, because not only do I believe mercury has caused me years of suffering, but also ruined my family. The dentist that I had looked a wreck last time I saw her, and I'm not surprised.

I don't know how many people believe me that I am poisoned, maybe only a couple, but I have spoken out about it because I feel I should. I have so many symptoms.

Sandra

I agree too. I was told for years I had clinical depression and was treated with virtually every antidepressant under the sun. These suprise, suprise did not work.. As a medical intern myself I later I spent 9months on psychiatric and psychosomatic wards. Looking back knowing what I do now I think yes it is likely that amalgams are responsible for a lot of the behaviorual disorders and depression. Not to forget ruined relationships, suicides, disfunctional families and much of the resulting misery

I do not think the medical/dental professions will ever want this to come out, even when they do recognise it, cause it would force them to admit to being the cause of the suffering of millions. I honestly cant see that happening.

Exactly, Steve. They will be liable. Here in the UK we have socialised medicine, so the government would be liable, and they would have to pay all of us who suffered compensation. They won't acknowledge the problem. They just allow enough info to be leaked to the public so they won't have amalgam fillings, then one day they'll discontinue their use saying better materials are now available.
