How I Cured Morgellons

I know that this disease we're fighting is horrible, not just to our physical bodies but also to our mental health. We've all gone through, and probably still deal with, various levels of loneliness, depression and anxiety. The pain we endure is unbearable and, sadly, in a lot of cases with our community members, we are going on this journey alone. These experiences are painful and can beat our mental health into submission, causing us to look for other supplements or drugs to help us not feel so bad Although I've had my share of ups and downs, they don't compare to the stories I've heard from our community members - especially experiences from my wife who has endured so much pain with this disease. I can't offer much in terms of prescription or over-the-counter medications and which seem to work well and which have a plethora of negative side effects, but that's not what this post is about. What I can offer is encouragement and a fantastic read of a book my nutritionist recommended me that I recently finished. He battles with his inner demons on a daily basis - anxiety, depression and other mental health issues that have roots in his Father, who, sadly, took his own life about a year ago as he could no longer cope with the pain. The book is called "Lost Connections: Uncovering the Real Causes of Depression—and the Unexpected Solutions" by Johann Hari. Rather than attributing depression and anxiety to a chemical imbalance in the brain, which can still play a role in such diagnoses, the author redirects the root cause to one that is social and how getting reconnected can be the superior solution. Reconnecting to meaningful work, other people, meaningful values, the natural world, sympathetic joy and towards a hopeful and secure future are key areas the author discusses how re-connection can combat challenges with depression and anxiety better than any pill that Big Pharma can provide. I learned so much from this book and already applying it much more in my life and conversations with my wife, Karianne, and it's made such a huge difference. Again, I'm not saying that prescribed medications don't solve these issues - there could be some form of chemical imbalance at play. What I am saying is if we peel back the layers and ask ourselves how we truly enjoy life, what would we come up with? How do those moments/experiences make us feel? By finding those areas in which we truly find joy and reconnecting to them, I strongly believe we can come out from whatever darkness surrounds us. For me, that's reconnecting with my close friends I first met when I moved to Miami for a few years; reconnecting with my faith life and becoming more involved with my church than ever before; reconnecting with my core values and now being able to share and live those values with my wife. Am I always in a joyful mood? No, there are numerous times when I feel low. But when I get reconnected in the ways that matter most to me, I know I'm a better person who's smiling a lot more. I encourage you all to dig deep during these trialing times we endure to discover where our true joy comes from and to reconnect to those areas. It may not be the ultimate solution and additional help may be needed, but it's a strong step towards a path of natural healing. I'm praying for you all and hope this message finds you well, no matter what state of being you're currently in. Blessings, Karianne & Joe |
