having difficulties with taking 1/8th of a capsule of the candex enzymes is diagnostic of severe biofilm/microbiome problems !


keeping your insulin resistance down is very important in both forms of diabetes


this means a low AGE approach to cooking and I would also avoid smoked fish !


roasting is a high AGE style of cooking !


the  BCD  has several references to/on this !


the digestion slows down during sleep, especially beyond the first hour and can create ideal brewing/fermentation conditions for biofilm/microbiome, so an adequate time needs to be left between eating and going to sleep, how long depends on the food in the meal like some fruits like cooked/pasturized kiwifruit can be eaten quite close to bed, but vegetables and meat cannot !


using enzymes speeds the digestion process so will help create more predictable blood sugar peaks !


I did not hiss at PABA being in a b-multi, but stated it's a biofilm/microbiome feeder, otherwise it's a useful b-vit !


I am actually suspicious you are not an intrinsic type one diabetic but a self created through doing everything opposite to what is needed to ameliorate  the problems


way too florid !


waking up with a 2am blood sugar peak may in fact be a biofilm toxin peak and hence insulin resistance peak and insulin production trough !


b-vit supplementation needs may vary person to person and the stage of recovery they are at !


be wary of feeding biofilm/microbiome with them, it helps to space from meals, but needs to balanced with the need for them to have some food in the stomach to buffer them !
















dairy,  especially the whey portion has some difficult to digest proteins, you can try enzymes like the houston  afp-pep !


medicine is a nightmare of wrong mindedness when it comes to diet !


I think you have a deeper issue than just dairy, this is what I have to do  dietwise !


-----------------


there are two sources of digestive difficulty with milk/dairy, branched chain amino acids and probably some other proteins  as well as lactose


aged cheeses have these proteins broken down by enzymes released by the biofilm culture and so from that point of view are more digestible !


lactose tolerance after breast feeding is very much a question of race/genetics

I didn't know about that, but I get a lot of phlegm when I have it


I thought it was just dairy products that caused it, but when I switched to cream without it, the phlegm stopped


my  reply


yeah, basically any thickener is trouble !


it's an adulteration of the real product with something that causes digestive difficulties !

basically stepping outside the universe is stepping into infinity and obviously that has happened !


this experience is very special and  99.99%  of  “spiritual”  people including most zen teachers don't get it and they will be very negative on you as they are inauthentic and you are authentic,  it burns them so they return the favour :o)


always the problem is what happens afterwards, but the weirdest thing is no-one understands you, especially those in zen or neo advaita or whatever because they have never been there, just manufactured their claims to enlightenment and believed in them!


see it's something that actually happens, it's not just a memory but one gets filled with infinity and there's no way that can be disguised


the whole event is just a blink or a flashback as you say, but the import is that contact and filling....................


one is not superior or better than those who haven't had that contact, the import is that filling and touching and the development of the ability to see it and maintain that contact in later years without that single traumatic event which can only happen once or twice in a lifetime, I think if it really happens and is not lost it won't happen again, you've seen what's what and that event is no longer necessary  again !


it's very disrupting, I quit work and traveled through various zen centers in the usa looking for some-one who might understand me and that/this/what happened and ended up at the springwater center with toni packer who was really the only person I ever found who understood  (she died recently)  :o(

A long time ago, I had an experience. It was like stepping out of this universe. Later I couldn't decide if this was mystical, religious or a mental problem. I'm mentally stable, so it occurred to me it was   “ perhaps something like an acid flashback ”


It happened actually not when reading Zen, but Heidegger. Somewhere where he defines human being as self-interpreting, basically as the being who asks questions about being, I asked myself  “ Who is asking questions? ”  ‑  kept asking myself that  ‑  who is the asker of all these philosophical questions? I drank lots of coffee and stayed awake all night, pondering. After that, something amazing happened. Something I can't place on the horizontal line between my birth and my future death.

As if a vertical disruption



All I remember is I felt like  “ Finally I'm home ”  ‑  as if I came back home after 10,000 years of looking for it. Everything was clear


After that - nothing like this. Everything back to normal subjectivity. I even went to Japan and lived in a Zen temple. I was sitting with knee pain and tears were flowing on my cheeks as I was resisting the urge to move. The abbot shouted if we did. Later he told me  “ You have to sit with the determination to die! ”  ‑  and made fun of my indecisiveness, alluding that with my lack of determination, I can only count on there being many lifetimes to attain enlightenment!


After that, I decided Zen is not for me, and I went to on to Shinran and the Japanese Pure Land school. It was good for some time, but I keep coming back to Zen


I've met many Zennists online that teach this or that, but you don't reveal too much. At least you don't sell yourself short. I don't mean to say your cryptic. You're definitely not a Voynich


I'm reading a lot of your work these days. Going through the history of your blog, your posts. Trying to find useful pointers.


Sorry for the verbose message. I hope it's not too annoying. I'll try to not bother you with long-winded rambling in the future. I don't have a specific question, but if you have any comment on what is written above, I will attentively read and reflect upon.

it's not a good idea to quit smoking cold turkey and  you  could have done some damage that may take months to come right or some of the damage may even be permanent ?!


stopping smoking or drinking you should slowly taper down, the body may have done many years of adjustment to the toxic insult and takes time to adjust back !


----------------


over time, the body makes huge changes at the level of gene expression to try and minimize the damage of an extreme toxic stress like smoking


these changes are massive and you have quite a different biochemistry with them


if you quit cold turkey, you suddenly move the body into a different biochemical state with what are now all the wrong gene expressions !


people move gradually into smoking however many they do aday, and they should move gradually out of that when they start to stop smoking !

I have thought about the problem people like you face, you really cannot go the destructive road that enables enlightenment

I never met anyone in zen with a good enough understanding to do koans properly !


I have seen people screwed up by teachers who think they know the answers and the student getting messed by taking that on board then getting thoroughly dyssynchronous with reality !


there's no such thing as koan study really, it's more solving puzzles that enlarge your understanding and actually other people only mess the process, best done by yourself which is really a conversation with the participants or person in the koan, poem, homily or author .......... whatever !


real understanding is extraordinarily rare so the real import is to take you out of the unavoidable mess or wrong minded contemporary stupidity/idiocy/nuttiness to going across the centuries to some-one who actually understood what it was about and this may be sa'di or wang wei or even on a good day some zen type who knew what they were talking about and it continually amazes me to find there were actually some amidst all the wrong minded blather of what has been passed along as worthy of being koans :o()

I think neo-advaita is non dual but feeling stronger ties to nisargadatta and ramana !


now I look up was monism means, neo-advaita is super strongly monistic !


I often see zen get turned into some form of monism which is heterodox !


maybe karl renz is one of the better neo-advaita teachers?


i think amoda maa jeevan has some  sense  and says a few things the reddit snotbags would do well to listen to !


it's quite a laid back style but has all the usual nonsense going on


neo-advaita and non duality have absolutely killed zen because their appointment system for teachers is much better, its basically self appointed based on some awakening experience, so a fair portion have had some genuine awakening experience, only they get confused so the paradigm becomes garbage in the same way zen has !


in general I would say the teachers in neo advaita/non duality have much more talent than the abysmal depths of stupidity that zen teachers seem to excel in through their transmission system appointments !


so zen has become a dead horse :o()


anyway if you have some talent, some degree of  “awakening”  why would you bother with zen with its off putting hierarchy, taint of sex maniac roshi sleez bags and japanese militarism, minimal audiences, joint damaging meditation postures.............. the list goes on ! ..........

I do abit and there's no way it's nice, I use solid copper bullets and not lead, try and get single shot kills and pretty well only shoot what I can eat, but really that's about it !


the founder of zen, the sixth patriarch spent a large portion of his life as a hunter and it's important to understand that !


if you are looking for role models in business/politics the best I can think of are Wei Ying-wu and Wallace stevens !


and the tang dynasty poet/artist wang wei who seemed to have survived a revolt working for both sides :o) !


wang wei had a brother who was a zen or Buddhist hermit and wang wei himself actually wrote a memorial inscription for the sixth patriarch, I often wonder if the  “prefect wei”  mentioned in the platform sutra was in fact a relative of wang wei because he through his poetry seemed extraordinarily advanced in what zen is about at a very young age !


I would suggest you search these people because you have a question, if you don't you will see where you are at, wanting some macdonald's version of zen which is what you have already picked up !


i really suggest you search the lives of Wei Ying-wu and Wallace stevens, otherwise you are going to be vulnerable to a well crafted line of voynich ! :o )(


it would also start you thinking in a more general way about what zen is :o)

I think I can honestly say in all my years working on this I was not like that, well yes intellectually lazy until I learnt the horrible price one pays for that!..................


anyway, both real life zen and /r/zen perform a useful social function by taking the toads out of circulation and leaving a larger, freer world bereft of them, so who want to take them out of prison ?

i actually think you could get a beneficial synergy between the lithium water and the Effexor and you may be able to reduce the Effexor dose  (ed. 300mg compared to the usual maximum dose of 225)  which is unsustainable !


really the amount of lithium carbonate in the water as per my page is not different from what some towns have in their public water !


Effexor has horrible withdrawal symptoms so any reduction in dose has to be done in small steps!

I know all about the withdrawal symptoms. Dropping my dose is what sent me into my current state, and if I do miss a pill, I get very sick the next day. My doctor has suggested stepping down before, but it hasn't worked in the times I've tried in the past, even under doctor supervision

I just frequently get this feeling of being sick of everything that happens. To avoid misrepresenting this whole post, I'm 17. So many different things come to mind when you hear someone's a teenager, and I'm not looking to be respected by anyone here, I just want to vent about some stuff.


Right now I'm sitting at a computer in a shitty apartment in a bad neighborhood at 10 PM listening to music trying to think about how I got to this point. I'm a highschool dropout with no GED and no Highschool credits past my Sophomore year, and I'm living with my mom who is on the border between extremely childlike and mentally unhinged. Not even more than 3 years ago I was living in my parent's house worth more than $500,000 in the best neighborhood in the area. I was going to the best public High school in the state, ranked around #20 or so in the country. When I took the PSAT my freshmen year my score was in the top 1% of the juniors in the best school in the state.


I know sitting back and thinking about how my life was a few years ago doesn't help me at all, and I'm sure it's just immaturity thinking that I deserved any of that. I know I'll get judged by people who have it worse than me, because I'm well aware that I was very well off when I was younger. I know I've been judged by people who read about me talking negatively about my mom who I live with, because of the stereotypes that I deal with daily about how I must just be a lazy teenage jerk. But I just can't get it out of my head, how unfair it all seems to be.


What did I do to deserve this. I dealt with my dysfunctional parents, both incredibly childish and selfish, from the day I was old enough to understand how it wasn't normal. I dealt with having to rely on my mom who was only competent enough to manage money if she had double what she needed to blow on mistakes, I dealt with my dad who cared about nobody but himself. I fucking tried, and I feel like I should've done better. I dealt with it every day, getting sucked into having a similar broken personality as a kid just from living in that type of environment. When I was around 13 I, like a lot of kids, got interested in the concept of psychiatric medication. I was just a generally shy kid, not trying to blame that on anyone else, or delve into some deep psychological reason for why I was that way. I didn't understand the repercussions that came with being seen as "Mentally ill" to those who are too ignorant to understand things like that. So I went to my doctor with my mom, and listed off some basic shy kid symptoms, hoping to get some kind of magic pill to fix that. My doctor didn't even want to give me anything, and it was apparent. So my mom started lying about symptoms. She told me afterwards that  "Well, he wasn't going to give it to you, so what's it hurt if I lied?".  I got some standard generic SSRI prescription that never really changed anything, and my life went on with me trying to understand the situation as best as a 13 year old can.


More months of the standard arguing between parents, them making the same empty threats to each other that they had been doing since I was born, that they had been doing since they got married 30 something years ago. I was getting older, and was getting sick of things. I knew that it wasn't normal, and that I didn't just have to deal with it. So I got involved in the arguments, yelling back. It came to be a prettty standard thing after a while, the arguments turned into 3 people screaming instead of the standard 2. I'm not pretending that I'm in the right in every situation I was in when I was younger, and I can barely remember the specifics of a lot of things. If I remember correctly, I hit a door one time, and my dad tried to upset my mom by calling the police.


So they come, my mom immediately, trying to be on my side, yells about "He's got mental issues! It's not his fault!". I know I can't really blame her for that, it wasn't malice, and she was just trying to do the best thing. But that one night completely changed my future. Once the police gave her (what was in her mind) the opportunity to send me to a hospital for a psychiatric evaluation in lieu of some kind of stern talking to in the back of a police cruiser, she jumped for it.


I don't even know if I'll post this at this point, this long wall of text isn't interesting to anyone but me, but it is nice to try to get some things out. It is a throwaway I guess.


I know that there will be a lot of doubt onto how exactly I could get hospitalized without actually having some kind of legitimate issue. And I get judged from everyone who I tell this to, "There's no way you aren't telling me everything, you must've done xxxxx or xxxx!". But adolescent psychiatric hospitals are filled with some of the most attention seeking, stupid kids you will ever meet. It is obviously horrible to say that, but it helps to dispel the ideas of what these places are. It is standard for a kid to be committed for nothing more than "He/she is on meds, and caused a fight/ran away/cut themselves/threatened themselves". Some do have legitimate issues, and for those kids these places are pretty great. So I'm just sitting there, between all these other stupid kids, trying to just deal with it. My mom is there, being sad yet at the same time proud of herself for "being a good mother", concerned about how this situation is making her feel. Casually talking about the living situation in the place, I mention that my roommate to-be on the psych ward is schizophrenic.


And to my ignorant mother, that was enough to set off screaming warning bells about "I saw on tv a schizophrenic murdered someone!", and many against-medical-advice discharge papers later, I was out in about 4 hours after I was admitted.


So I tried going on with normal life, but in my family's mind, I was now the "Psychiatric hospital crazy" child. Threatening to "send you back to the hospital!" at every normal 13 year old behavior problem, yelling about how "You should be back on medication!" ended in me having enough mental issues that those claims ended up not being that far from the truth. The short version is, I ended up having some standard "angsty depression/suicidal early teenage years" times. So I ended up thinking, around age 15, maybe the hospital would've helped after all, believing that maybe I am crazy, I should just trust these people, and let them help me. So I told my mom about my issues and she got overly dramatic as expected, and I went again.


Nobody really tells you what psychiatric medications can do to you. It's not all the standard "Oh I just don't feel emotions anymore". I went into the hospital sad. I came out with Welbutrin and a few other medications that I can't remember. Weeks later, I was, for the first time in my life being "reckless". The hospital didn't help me, it helped the stupid 13 year old girls that tried overdosing on Tylenol because they didnt get enough christmas gifts, but not me. Now my thoughts were constantly racing. At the time I didn't understand that the poor impulse control and incomprehensible mess that was my brain was a result of the cocktail of drugs that I thought were supposed to help me. It got to be too much, so in my broken stream of thoughts I decide to take a family car and drive myself into a wall. After the initial surge of adrenaline/thinking I was smart enough to make a decision that important, I guess you could say I just "pussied out". So I went back home. And the police are there. And now I've been hospitalized twice, and I'm getting even worse? Better go back to the psychiatric ward again.


But this time, I'm not just sitting there calmly like last time, being the model crazy patient and answering questions politely. My memory literally would last for 3 seconds at a time, for the two weeks I was in the psych ward this time. I could be in a conversation with someone and just completely forget what we're talking about. At the time all I know is they're talking about sending me to "Residential treatment". Long term care, basically. So I accepted it, buying into the doctors idea that "I must really be crazy, why else would i be here?". Not realizing that they're looking at a piece of paper that says "Multiple hospitalizations and history of medications, possible manic state." and basing their care choices off that. I mean, nobody could be hospitalized twice and medicated and not be crazy right? So I decided I would go to long term care and get help. I was put into a white windowless van with 2 large black men and drove about an hour out of the city. To this   place.  For over 2 months. These kids had extreme behavioral issues. Constant physical fighting between "residents". Constant physical abuse from the employees. A constant feeling of just wanting to die, of how did I get to this point in my life, of thinking "Of all the moments in my life that I will experience before I die, why this one? Why am I here, in this place, dealing with these awful people?". Of hearing the constant jokes from the orderlies that I, and 2 or 3 of the other residents out of the 60 or so the place contained, "Don't even belong here really, I guess your insurance must be paying a lot."


I was 15. I saw a kid get pushed into a closet with a "Mental-health associate", and heard him screaming for minutes afterwards. I was told by another MHA to beat a small 13 year old boy because "He was annoying". We had weekly visitations on the weekend for an hour. Every time my mom would come I would beg to leave. But "The doctors say it's for the best." I never did anything wrong the entire time I was there. They had a point system, of 100 points every day that can be deducted for misbehaving. The entire 2+ months I was there, 0 "points" were lost. But I "belonged there".


Eventually I got out. It was only a few months, but I have more memories of that time than I do from the rest of the 17 years I've been alive. My parents had already filed bankruptcy at this point, and were struggling to rent a house that cost 3x what they were able to afford. Then we moved again to a house less than half the monthly rent. Despite the fact that I was "crazy", I heard every single detail of their financial situation and the constant mistakes they would make, the not understanding that they cannot afford to go out to eat every night when they can't pay their rent.


About 3 months ago, after the constant arguing about finances and dysfunction, I was able to convince my mom to leave my dad. Despite the fact that he wasn't making much money at the time either, she makes even less. And she has even less of an idea of how to manage her finances. So now we have this apartment, in a horrible area, and she still doesn't understand not to spend money that she doesn't have.


I try not to stress about her poor decisions. But what am I going to do with my life? I wanted to go to medical school when I was in school, but now I haven't been in school for years, and I have less than 5 months before I turn 18.


I don't know if anyone will read this. And I wouldn't expect you to, it's a long, slow story that would only interest someone who had a stake in it. But I just had to type it all. I know I'm almost through it, I'm almost on my own. I have a great girlfriend who I've been with for almost a year now, and we're planning on starting our own life together relatively soon. But I just can't get over the idea, the concept that I had to be the one that this happened to. I have to be the one that can't tell his life story to people without being judged, I am the one that has to try to create something resembling a normal functional life from this wreckage. I am the one that can't even go a god damn day without wondering "Maybe I really am crazy. Maybe it's my fault. Maybe I could've done better."


---------------------


Downvoted already. I'm assuming the vote fuzzing doesn't occur immediately when no upvotes have been given, so my assumption is it's real. Not a surprise to me honestly. People hear what I say and assume I'm a mean person, or that I'm trying to place blame on other people. Think that if it makes you feel better, or if it's easier to just hear "SSRIs, mental illness, psychiatric hospital", and lump me in with every stereotype you know about those things. Go ahead. I don't fucking care at this point, if there's anything that I've learned from my life is that what other people think about me based on their small biased "insight" into my personality is their own problem.
