Antidepressants suck...when i've been on them, they just numb me. And eventually I feel better, but after a while they start not to work much anymore, so the doctor ups your dose...and it goes up and up and up...it's pointless. And then to come off of them is HELL. I stayed on one type for 5 years because I was so scared of the detox, it was SO awful. The second time I was on for 3 years and I went off more slowly, but still, it was difficult.
Fried food would do bad things to me now, I am sure. I'd hack up bloody mucus for a few days.
Oh my god you look fucking awesome, Lorra. Please forgive me if I've misspelled your name, I ought to know it by now. Derrrr.
You should be doing this sort of thing for a living. What you've said, the way you've said it... come on. You are honest, lucid, and make so very many great points that people should watch and listen again and again. Have you ever considered speaking professionally?
I am a die-hard lacto-ovo vegetarian, and have been so since I was fourteen. Tried to go vegan a few times--no. The raw thing has tempted, and, yes, we do it here on occasion, including juice fasts, which are totally fucked but good. I'm sure you know what I mean.
Thank you for pointing out how bonkers people can get on any 'extreme' diet. And how important it is to listen to your body. YES. Thank you.
Thanks!! Lorra is right (though the real spelling is actually Laura) - I don't even KNOW yours.
Speaking professionally...lol no...I have thought about coaching, though. Only reason I haven't is I felt like I should have at LEAST 5 years experience before even considering it. Now that I basically give advice THROUGH someone else...I figure i can do it pretty well. Thank you so much though! What a bunch of nice compliments :)
Man, raw food people can be fucking psycho, I tell you.
