@ThinPicking
My behaviours can be lizard like sometimes. Ill just be thirsty and pouring liquid down my neck for no real reason. Always did since a child. No idea why. Very automatic behaviour just same stuff over and over. I heavily suspect mercury toxicity currently.If I take diuretic herbs it just POURS out of me all night long.
It’s a hard situation to deal with. A lot of weird stuff up with me. Whenever I turn the lights of to sleep my thoughts are just racing straight away.
-
@ThinPicking Never even weighed myself once and still got massive improvements in my health. Silly. Keep it simple.

@questforhealth
Aha now we're talking! Restrict! But do it slowly. Your physiology's probably patterned around this.
(Obviously in spite of my enthusiasm I can't be sure, this just rings with me for my own experiences. In my often crazy experiments with fluid balance. All in pursuit of reliably consistent cognitive function.)
-
I can certainly try. I’ve always just had insatiable thirst. I think I just drink for the sake of drinking. Like just like the feel of drinking??? Yeah not very clever.
-
@questforhealth There's nothing weird or special about the ways in which we get ill. I see this tendency on the other forum a lot. There's barely ever anything crazy and exotic going on in terms of our health.
This was Ray's entire insight, and I suggest trying to solve things with patience and humility. If that's not possible, go consult with Danny Roddy or something and listen to what he has to say, he seems like he would do a good job and it's likely worth the money if you factor in your own productivity. But this endless rabbit holing of new wild and exotic crazy things that are super obscure is a dead end that doesn't have a happy ending.
-
Rabbit holing like what heavy metals? I’ve already learnt my lesson about supplements personally. Never buying supplements again unless I get a test and see my test and know I need it.

Don't worry, this will subside. Just don't forget to replace the fluid with food. Slowly.
I could put myself in this state somewhere inside 48 hours by simply acting in to it. And then remove myself from it in another 48 by acting out of it. Which either way, involves acting against impulse or desire. It's hard to describe.
The body just seems to have all these set points and it's constantly looking for the one that's closest to behaviour, somewhere between the now and not too distant past. And we can sit in them for a very long time if we're distracted or addressing the resulting frames of mind at higher levels.
-
I always have horrible impulse control which I believe may be down to copper toxicity, that also would explain for me the racing mind at night as I imagine less active adrenals at night make the copper release into the blood?
-
@S-Holmes I’m anti gossip as well but this is not gossip. We’re all here just trying to figure out what the hell happened over there! If her name comes up a lot it’s because she’s been acting like charlie’s handmaiden. She can see clear as day that the mass bannings are undeserved and his behaviour is weird as hell, but she stays silent. Blossom too I might add.

I don't know enough here. I could tell you more about OSI layers than I could about copper metabolism.
That said. From what I did read around it its handling can be fragile. And more generally, a "toxicity" wouldn't necessarily require a restriction of that thing. It's commonly held that the dose makes the poison. But how can you have a dose without a concentration. If you can manage to get your fluid down and your food up (easy does it). You'll retain more, have more solute dissolved in it and perhaps be more resilient to internal or external toxicological insult.
-
@Peatful oh ok. You know it’s bad when you can’t tell truth from fiction with charlie, hahahaha
-
@ilovethesea Agreed. What is happening there is just wrong. Anyone can see that.
-
I’ll try this and see what happens. Very simple solution. I do still want to go ahead and see if I can test for heavy metals. If anything i’ll rule the problem out.
Come to think of it I can think very clearly after drinking horsetail tea which is a diuretic... Interesting how solutions come when you least expect it.
-
@brad Could you move some of the posts here to their rightful place? It's a bit confusing. Thank you muchly!
-
@questforhealth
By all means. Any data points you can get are good. Just don't fixate on them in isolation.
And yea it's good that you notice. Many don't seem to. But I guess that's one of the benefits of feeling "unwell". As long as we're committed to self exploration, this is when we can be most aware.
A lot of my personal nooticing's have come from a more retarded-male version of this. Like how could it be that I could feel better on a Saturday morning than I have all week, having just drank like a fish the night before. With a lot of trial, error and erratic reading. I realised there are (somewhat) distinct compartments. And retention in one not the other can be the difference between a good day and a bad day. A diuretic like horsetail tea (or a fifth of whiskey) can reveal.
-
@S-Holmes also she thinks this is about vitamin A? The crux of the matter is the forum still being under Ray’s name while they piss on his grave, I’d like to see her comment on that.
-
@ilovethesea EXACTLY
-
I feel better after drinking too... But I don’t want to do that I’m too young.
Slowly going to get there. Bit difficult with being so exhausted though. But i’ll try commit to low fluids. Maybe I just feel thirsty whenever Im hungry because I’m used to drinking only liquid food which is a bit stupid.
-
@questforhealth
I noticed when I get more then 10g of potassium from food daily i dont get thirsty even when drinking like 500 ml to 1L only of fluid daily. -
Hard to get good meat here but I’ll try bananas. Always suspected I was missing some mineral or something.
10g seems insane. I don’t have appetite like that no matter what I do.
