celiacs (gluten intolerance) , pepper and add

I was wondering how many individuals out there have celiacs or an allergy to some food that may contribute to their adhd? I have celiacs and I know that untreated it really contributed to my symptoms. Studies are now showing that those who have austism or autism spectrum should remain off of gluten and other things. I am wondering this because I will judge by responses if we should start a dietary needs group where people can discuss joys, frustrations and share recipes.
I have also been off pep… Continue

If you like, perhaps start a blog post or forum post asking the question about bipolar and ADHD - I will then include it in the next update and that way our members can give their thoughts. We have some members with experience, I am sure.

The pink ribbon I pass on to you. Cancer is a terrible thing. Sorry about your dad. I lost both my parents to lung cancer. We can reach out to others with this problem. Compassion is needed.

I am so sorry to hear about your father. I pray that you know and trust that Jesus loves you and He will NEVER leave you or forsake you. Please keep in touch and let me know how you are doing. If you need someone to talk to, I am only a phone call away. Sending you warm hugs!

I am terribly sorry to hear such news. My thoughts are with you. I am the wrong person to ask about Bipolar, I really don't know. However, everyone reacts their own way when grieving and I think those are the most difficult times to be considering if a condition is causing such sadness. Sometimes sadness comes in floods and isn't always controllable. If you are deeply concerned please do see someone professionally in person... my heart goes out to you.

At 4:36pm on June 25, 2009, DANA said…: Hello Belle! It was nice hearing from you! I will definitely keep you in prayer about your education, home and relationship with your boyfriend. I definitely can relate to the emotional toll that stress causes in so many area's within life.

The one thing that I have learned and that I am trying so hard to practice this year is to focus on caring for my own self. I can not give my best to anything or anyone, unless I am taking good care of myself.

So I think that I will suggest that you start focusing on taking the best care of yourself; physically, emotionally and spiritually. By concentrating on yourself, you are really more capable of taking care of all the big and little challenges in life, too.

Some individuals may think that I am promoting "selfishness", but I personally believe that God calls us to care for the body and mind that He has created. Our body is considered a temple of the Holy Spirit and God wants us to take good care of the body he has blessed us with.

I hope that I do not sound too "preachy". I want you to know that I understand the challenges that you are going through. Sometimes life just gets difficult with many decisions to make, with far too many responsibilities and an increase in the amount of stress we experience.

I just started going back to counseling since my own life is getting way too stressed out. My kids are off school this summer and they are expecting me to drive them everywhere, they think that I am suppose to entertain them around the clock and they never want to pitch in and help around the house.

For two months, I have suspected that my Cymbalta is no longer working. I have talked with the psychiatrist about it twice, but he is NOT listening. (Boy, that drives me crazy when people ignore me!!!)
Anyways, I feel as if I am no longer on antidepressants. I have been very depressed, anxious and just not myself.

Finally, today I became so fed up with feeling horrible that I decided to make an appointment with my family doctor to see if she will change my antidepressant. Hopefully, she will listen and provide helpful suggestions.

Just like I mentioned up above that we need to take care of ourselves, I am forcing myself to actively take better care of myself. I have faith that somehow everything will turn out fine. I am back in counseling so that is good, I have been exercising to try to stay active and I am trying to eat more organic and pure, which has helped me lose 11 lbs so I am excited about that!

I pray that God supplies you wisdom, discernment, direction and strength for you to make the best choices in your life. Keep me posted on how you are doing! Sending encouragement your way!

At 4:20pm on March 6, 2009, Devin Mackey said…: Hey Belle, that was a great story, very inspiring and very true. I want that simple obedience but the intellect does get in the way. I will refer to that often, thankyou. I've been around just not responding much, don't have much to say. Still working with the meds. to get them right, going in for surgery on my knee on the 16th and still looking for a place I can afford and looking to start back with school and getting back to the gym. Enough sitting around gettin' fat and lazy. How are things with you? I hope all is well. I'll talk at ya later.

God Bless
