Am depression

Here I am again. Waking up, feeling a switch flip and then depressed. Really depressed. Feeling depressed and wanting to go but not really depressed and wanting to go . It's like I'm being fed these feelings I don't really have.

What is the mechanism here?

I was getting used to the same thing with anxiety. It just flipped on when waking. Now it's depression. Could this be a cortisol thing ?
Lyme yeah. Bartonrlka?

I was going to start treating g bartonella ( just a guess/ shot in dark) this month but I wanted to feel good or baseline and I'm in this flare now.
Anxiety/ Brain fog/ depression.

It seems like it comes every couple months or so. I will do a full history of symptoms when up for it. I can't think now it's all a jumble.
I wish I would of used my good days to prepare for the bad days. Oh how nice.

I know everyone is going thru this type of thing here. I wish us all to be free of this.

Anxiety and depression are two symptoms that have sky rocketed for me in the past 1.5yrs (been treating for 9 mo). I hate leaving the house, but work full time, fear things will happen to my child, he is 12 and cry most times when I have to be in a car past 5pm. I am guessing that as some of my other symptoms increase; loss of sight/light sensitivity, confusion/brainfog/headaches, vertigo, body pain, the depression and anxiety get worse. Im just guessing. My llmd doesn't give a straight answer just says that depression and anxiety are common.
I feel for you friend. I feel like these are some of the darkest times I have ever experienced.

Thanks for all your words of kindness and help and comraderie ...
No I haven't started any Bart herbs yet.

I have so many pages bookmarked that need organized and I was going to add in some herbs. Can't remember which ones to cover maybe both bs... maybe cyst / biofilm busters but it all seems too much at moment and confusing...

Sorry the flare now girlie. Out of the blue these things seem so random. After you've been treating for awhile.

Thanks 8L8- you aren't alone . I hope not all those symptoms are increasing. Hoping that's a typo. If so that sounds terrible. I've had all those though not at once. And I don't see a llmd so am hoping you get relief asap. Hang in there. I'll post any thing that helps in futeure.

Thanks goshawk for tips. Maybe I'll add cordeceps for immune as I have a bottle staring at me. I wish I didn't hage to keep adding more and more.

I haven't ever taken a binder. Daily? Twice a day? Indefinitely?

My thing is I get out of a rut then I drop things. Like I was taking rhodiola last month or so then ran out. And was feeling better so hoped I could just stop. But maybe I'll restart that as well.

Amonia build up. Sigh... thanks I'll get one of those .. Any one more reccomended ? I'll research that when I can. I have about ten to thirty mins max to figure this out. Per day.

Thanks rainy cloud. My phone on at night is a prob. .

I'll turn off now.

Hope all have good night sleep. Good day tom.

Waiting for the kill-off and after healing is one thing, but who has time for that........life must go on.

I worked during all this partially with the help of treating / supporting individual body systems while going after the bugs, this is a much better and more effective approach than just waiting to heal.

First, these to below are herlpful to know, thyroid alone can cause all your AM issues alone, and these infections can alter the thyroid.
1)thyroid levels tsh, ft3 and ft4, treat if needed.
2)ever have a 24 hr, 4 point saliva adrenal test?

-5-HTP usually works for dep and anxiety, take b4 bed or 1st in the AM.
-Lithium orotate (low dose, not the phyc drug) works well too.
-Caffine can be combined with ammino Taurine supp- this results in calm energy
-High adrenal output? Holy Basil calms, and can energize if fatigue is from to high cortisol.

THankyou all so much, I look forward to incorporating these tips asap.

Question...
Is it worth testing thyroid levels and adrenals if I've been taking holy basil and ashwaganda ( known to treat adrenal/ thyroid issues ) for a couple weeks? ??

I'm taking them to hopefully improve those conditions if they need improving.... and to address symptoms...

Currently taking:
holy basil,
eluthero (mornings and afternoons) ashwaganda,
and just started rhodiola ( Mornings and afternoon.) ..
* gee that's a lot of adaptagens...

As well as Chinese skullcap, Chinese cats claw

And green dragon caps: jap knotweed, cats claw, andrographis, d lion..

Goshawk if your still reading: thanks for writing out what you used. Did you treat three bs at once. If so what did you add in for babs and when.

A person posted about rocking sensation and balance issues. I've had those quite often... and auditory hallucinations. Sounds like that could be babs based on replies...

Might as well go for all three I guess.

What is cns/ pns.
do burburr pinella that helps some. Is that for amonia.

Girlie , if your reading... thnx for binder info. I don't do do a lot of detox. Lemon waters sometime... not a lot of time for baths... I will try to make time.

In mean time, if not really detoxing would a binder pull too much??

And lastly, do you all worry about ala initiating stored virus, or just test it out.with everything else, one at a time I suppose.

Thanks

Thanks so much.
.. oops not ala.. L arginine.
