I just wanted to keep this on the table here... the amino acid treatment is still working. I've hit a plateau now and need to have a urine analysis to check amounts of neurotransmitters in my system. This will let Dr. Reiff know how to proceed... which supplements to tweek. The awesome thing about this is that once a person gets balanced, they may not need to take as much. Some are able to stop taking the supplements altogether. Some must take them for the rest of their lives.
I am still so amazed by the way I feel. The negative voices are so quiet now. I still pull, but it's so much less. Skin picking has gotten better, depression is lifting, and the anxiety and need to control things is nearly gone!
Dr. Reiff told me he's gotten emails from 4 of you so far! He's glad to help! He's met with my counselor, too! She asked him why this has been such a big secret!! Can you imagine how many different things this could help for so many people????!! My prayer now is that it will hit mainstream medicine and be covered by insurance.
I have one sorrow with this. It's expensive. I have a dear friend and her daughter who are struggling with depression and bi-polar disorder, among other things. She wants to be on this so bad, but just does not have the money. I hate the fact that there is help, but money stands as a barrier to some who so desperately need it. That is so wrong!! Marc and I are struggling to stay afloat with this as well. The only way we are managing is that Dr. Reiff is allowing us to pay as we can. We are trusting the Lord for his provision and He is faithful.
