I am talking less-and-less about my illness. This is not a conscious effort on my part; it's just happening. I think that the constant self-talk and rehashing of illness or worst yet, explaining the science behind ideas are all a form of OCD. When you turn the corner and start to get well...we'll talk more about this in a sec....this goes away on its own. I think that it is common to all disorders which are not accepted by the medical community at large. We feel the need to justify how we feel and do so either with an apologetic tone or one of defiance.
I have as much energy and exercise tolerance as 2 months ago....and I have approximately as much brain-fog. A bit less but it's still there. But I don't talk as much about mercury or methylation to others. Here, yes. There, no. People who have avoided me the past couple of years are coming up and asking how I am doing....and some people are asking in various ways for help. They see something in my face, I think, that tells them that I am returning.
