I just ended my own round last night, after 3 days. It was one of the hardest rounds I've done. I felt tearful and anxious the whole time, and craving chocolate like mad. Better today now that I'm off. Like you, I'll just listen to my body and try to judge what's best.
Hi Linda,
When I was detoxing mercury, I used to get a few rounds where I would be tearful and anxious also - depressed too. I would take this as a positive, though it feels like a negative. Looks like you are definitely shifting mercury.
The difficulty of this is how slow it seems to take and the symptoms that occur during the process of slow healing are very very difficult at times to endure. And also the ups and downs. Just when you think you feel better, you can often be hit down again. I had that often during my healing process and it was almost torture.
It's commendable that you are trying to keep a good, positive attitude. Which is a real challenge when mercury can be such a strong dictator of feelings/emotions and outlook. I remember I could not even detect colours well, because the world to me looked darker - like looking at everything through a dirty windscreen. I used to get quite a fright when I felt better and suddenly everything looked colourful, brighter and the world was really quite exciting. It's very sad at what toxins like this can do to people. And their apparent negativity is not of their true selves.
I think it was Hal Huggins who said that the one thing about mercury that makes him most angry is how it induces suicidal thoughts in many of its victims. I can attest to that! Though not everybody gets the same symptoms with mercury - some get more physical symptoms than mental. Some get both, some get mainly psychological symptoms.
Depending I suppose where the mercury is and what's happening and of course, genetic tendencies/weaknesses etc.
