Well, I still felt a bunch of anxiety, and shit was foggy for the first month or so.

So forgive me for being a little quick to take the jump on this one. Seems pretty apt quite frankly.



I don't mean to be rude, but it's about as apt as homeopathy in terms of dilution when comparing what was tested here (and is possible by infection) and a couple tens of micrograms of transiently expressed mRNA in your muscle tissues. And no, the potential for mis-splices leading to soluble spike protein like what happened in a tiny subset of the adenovirus DNA vaccines is not there.


It's fine. I'm just sick and fucking tired of people acting like god damn know it all's over things we are all still just figuring this all out over. We learn more every day, but we also find more to learn as well.

AT the end of the day, the symptoms they mention are what I felt. This is not hypochondria or illness anxiety disorder as referenced as now apparently.

I was actually concerned that it was possibly just my mind playing tricks on me. But taking things like omega 3 seem to have helped, and not taking them from time to time seemed to make it worse again. Among some other things I was testing out before that.

So color me surprised when an article that states the very two symptoms I was experiencing appears. Hmmm... perhaps maybe the toxic people out there could fuck off and accept that some of us are not having the same fucking ride that the rest of you are, or believe is happening?

Is that so fucking hard? Not to be rude to you or anything, just being blunt and frank at this point because I'm kind of tired of this sites more toxic motherfuckers.


I believe you. Chronic brain inflammation is known to cause anxiety and depression, with nearly immediate relief with anti-inflammatories. Ignore the ignorant.

If you have allergies and sensitivities to perfumes: read this in full: https://edswellness.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Dr-Afrin-...

Mastocytosis, an inflammatory disease that involves mast cell (a type of immune cell) dysfunction, nearly always presents with what looks like terrible anxiety.

Look into glial activation and things that help with that.

If omega-3 helped, you may find several other things beneficial, as other people reported: quercetin and/or rutin (intracts with meds, check out the interactions first hand, pharmacists will be useful, you are on your own), etifoxine, low dose naltrexone, even benzodiazepines help with inflammation as well (diazepam and clonazepam inhibit some overactive immune cells). Others report that weekly shots of B12 helped (italian bell palsy protocols are 500-1000mcg weekly for 8 weeks)

All the best and speedy recovery.


Thanks, and thanks for the other message you sent me. Sorry I didn't see your comment amongst the rabble.

Some things I should note that I didn't consider or think to mention earlier.

1. I've changed from one type of Omega-3 concoction to another. The first stuff I was using from Jamieson was the Wild Salmon & Fish oil 1,000mg pills. It took taking 2,000mg to 3,000mg daily without fail to reduce the symptoms.

Meanwhile, the new bottle I got is just other fish oils. The difference here seems to be something to do with triglycerides and the EPA and DHA amounts in these pills vs the original bottle. The OG bottle has basically 2.5x less than the 2nd bottle. Also from Jamieson.

The new bottle? I only take one pill every other day now, maybe skipping til a 3rd day. Haven't tested further beyond that yet. From this very basic and rudimentary 'data', one could perhaps propose that the DHA and EPA amounts are part of what is helping here, since it falls in line with what I would have gotten with the larger dose of the original bottle of Omega-3 I got.

2. Also, The B vitamins are also in my system commonly anyways due to Centrum multivitamins. This obviously isn't as concentrated a dosage as taking a shot of it weekly; but daily consumption of the recommended dosage should keep things adequate I would think. That said, I really should get another bottle of B100 complex.

3. I don't take any other medications right now, beyond imbibing upon alcohol from time to time and enjoying some marijuana on a more common basis. That last one will increase anxiety for some people, but it's always been more of a relaxant for me. Barring of course the rare instances where I find myself in a bad spot from some strong stuff. Regardless of this however, I have been slowly reducing my usage of marijuana and swapping to more CBD based cartridges over high THC for just in case I am just sabotaging myself. To put this into perspective; none of this seems to have really changed anything much. Only the Omega-3 so far has had any noticeable effect. Even going without for a week did nothing. If anything, I was more irritable and anxious from being irritable. Which is why I started smoking weed to begin with long ago anyways, lmao. So even if this isn't helping, it's also not hurting anything? Sort of...

4. I've been trying to swap to more natural ways of dealing with my issues. I've known people on those benzo's and I just won't be going anywhere near those. The others though, I might look into. I'm not against using proper medication where it is appropriate. But I am definitely looking for ways to handle my issues on a more personal and natural basis. Why?

Because doctors/pharmacists aren't everywhere in Canada. Only in the cities and bigger towns really. And I don't intend on living in those forever, so I need to find ways to deal with my problems on my own to some degree, ya dig?

Anyways. Thanks for the help. Best of luck, and yes a high speed recovery is very much needed and hoped for.


According to the CDC, "whereas there is a wide range in antibody titers in response to infection with SARS-CoV-2, completion of a primary vaccine series, especially with mRNA vaccines, typically leads to a more consistent and higher-titer initial antibody response." [1]

It would seem strange if the vaccines are able to induce higher S protein antibody titers than a typical infection while producing an orders-of-magnitude lower level of S protein in the body (but perhaps I am wrong there -- the human immune system is full of counterintuitive and strange workings).

This might help figure things out.

I have allergies. To dust, pollen, perfumes, etc. No foods, but the earth hates me essentially lol.

So that means my body goes into overdrive when it thinks it is being attacked. (As I understand in regards to the immune system and how its linked to my allergic attacks.)
