• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Not sure if it's been discussed here before, but I've been reading some interesting things on dental amalgams/silver fillings and symptoms of mercury toxicity including anxiety, excessive shyness, timidity, social phobia, mood swings, insomnia along with many other symptoms. If this is the case, makes me angry that I and others have suffered so long needlessly, but on the other hand, I am grateful that there are things that can be done to reverse the toxicity and symptoms.

How can one discover whether their symptoms are from mercury toxicity and not something else?

I'm not sure, I'm going to try to find out what would be be the best way to have testing done.

Search for 'mercury toxicity symptoms'.

I found a lot of reports of either full or major recovery from symptoms after having amalgams safely removed. I can't say that I've read many reports of substantial recovery from any other treatment.

Found this today...."Principal symptoms of mercury poisoning are “excessive timidity, diffidence, increasing shyness, loss of self-confidence, anxiety, and a desire to remain unobserved and unobtrusive”

Lots of information on mercurypoisoned dot com including a video of '60 Minutes' aired in 1990 on mercury toxicity.

FDA has very recently finally issued a health warning against amalgam fillings.

I can't say for certain that mercury toxicity is the cause of debilitating anxiety, but I haven't found any cause/effect that makes more sense.

Well...I'd have to guess by what you said then that this anxiety and such would have to occur in proper timing after the filling was put in...whether that be days, weeks or a few months afterwards, I have no clue...but that's what it looks like...I don't know how many people can jump on this boat though, especially the younger ones who haven't had fillings yet.

Here's a site with info on your question about timing...

The younger ones without fillings...I have read that mercury can be passed through the mother on to the fetus and passed through breast milk.

They say that a lot of the testing that can be done for mercury poisoning isn't reliable since mercury can reside in a number of different tissues. You can get rid of the mercury that's in most of your body, but the stuff that's in your CNS takes longer, on the order of 15 or so years to get it out naturally.

Eating cilantro is said to be very good at getting rid of mercury. I started taking a detox formula for mercury, which happens to contain cilantro, and I can honestly say I noticed something.

I had just read the other day that cilantro removes heavy metals rapidly, so it will now be a part of my daily diet. Hope to notice the same results you have BrokenWing.

Actually, mercury can cause most of the problems listed in tis section of CF. I can tell you many people will not get better just from amalgam removal, they wouldneed to detox. I say be very careful when you detox, because you can reditribute the mercry and yes, it will make you worse, which is what happened to me. Before you think about detoxing, you definetly wnat to make sure the amalgams are out of your mouth, and if you get the amalgams out, make sure it's someone who knows what their doing and follows the IAOMT protocol.

Boyd Haley has a new product called OSR, which maybe the best thing out there now, still waiting on more data for it. I'm actually taking samples of it right now. Andrew cutler's protocol is probably the safest way to detox. www.noamalgam.com

If you are inteested, I poted a bunch of info in the autism section, and the thread is called autidm info.
