I'm surprised nobody has replied with an interest in this. It is very real, and quite common (1 in 10) .

The treatment is really easy, painless, with no side effects save your urine turning bright yellow!!

Most people notice improvements with nutrient supplementation within a couple of days! It's a $20, go to your local health store, try out a couple of vitamins experiment that I strongly urge anyone experiencing the slight insanity/madness mixed with brilliance type of thing.

It's beyond my comprehension that many people prefer to remain sick. This condition is genetic. It runs in families. My family knows I have this condition. I suspect everone in my immediate family has this condition. The test is inexpensive, but my ignorant, arrogant, and ever defying mother refuses to order it to check her, my father, or my brother. She insits she is well. I know she is very sick.

I really thought this information would be picked up here. The motto here is to deny ignorance. To inform oneself and others of information that is needed to know, in todays increasingly chaotic world.

This was the intention of my post. It's one thing to have an open mind, and quite the other to string together bits and pieces that aren't really related, while projecting ones inner tension as an outward manifestation of control.

I no longer believe there is an elite group of people pulling all the strings. The world is too complex, with too many different mindsets to have a single collective organization running things. These are delusions.

I've helped myself by seeking treatment. It didn't dumb me down, like pharmaceuticals. It unlocked my sanity, and gave me hope for myself and the world. I wanted to spread that to whomever may have the insight to listen, and is suffering from paranoia, delusions, and the likes.

It seems those who are sick for longer periods, or who have reached a certain point of no return in their minds, don't find the need to help their selves. They are the brainwashed fools.

I'm done with ATS. Last post, guys. Guess you won't be missing me.

Treat yourself well. Use common sense.

let the thread die

noone knows what disease your talking about

(never heard of it...................)

I never knew it was a 'disease' a such, but i have a LOT of the things listed.
except a few, cant realy say depression fits most the time..

Light kills me, sunlight in the day no sun glasses and i have a massive headache after 10 min.

If someone will not admit that they are sick, there is very little anyone can do to persuade them that they are. It's really hard when it's someone you care about, but in my experience it's best to wait until they're ready to change rather than trying to force change on them.

I saw this thread yesterday and did some research, since many of the symptoms are familiar to me, and I've been diagnosed with depression and treated pharmaceutically for several years now.

I found no supporting evidence for this condition except on sites that specifically promote it and link to either test sites or treatment sites – i.e., have a financial interest. The few peer-reviewed papers on the topic are discouraging. One failed to find the compound in the urine of any of the schizophrenics included in the survey, and one (in rat and mouse nerve tissue) found that the levels needed to effect signal transmission were far too high to account for symptoms.

I didn't post because I wasn't much in the mood for a debunking argument. Assuming you're healthy, taking some extra B vitamins isn't going to hurt you – who knows, maybe I'll even try it. But the science just isn't there to back this up as a major contributor.

And I would point out that the same symptoms are used to "diagnose" any number of conditions – including being an "indigo child".

I guess you're suggesting here that we all have this condition because we believe to one extent or another in conspiracy theories, and that if we take our B vitamins we will realize that they don't exist?

Maybe some people believe some things on this site because they are ill, but you just can't lump us all together like that.

I've helped myself by seeking treatment. It didn't dumb me down, like pharmaceuticals. It unlocked my sanity, and gave me hope for myself and the world. I wanted to spread that to whomever may have the insight to listen, and is suffering from paranoia, delusions, and the likes.

Two things: most pharmaceuticals do not dumb down people who need them, and I hope that you are maintaining contact with a mental health professional in some form because self-medication can be dangerous.

It seems those who are sick for longer periods, or who have reached a certain point of no return in their minds, don't find the need to help their selves. They are the brainwashed fools.

This bit I don't follow at all.

I'm done with ATS. Last post, guys. Guess you won't be missing me.

Because one post didn't get the attention you thought it deserved, you're done with an entire web forum? Doesn't that seem like an overreaction?

This is soooo interesting! I have been on SSRI's in the past, and they helped some with my anxiety and depression But I also have the metabolic symptoms of this disorder (pale skin, sound/light sensitivity) and I also can say that I have always felt much better when I am taking my supplements.

I am going to the doctor again on Jan 8th, but until then I plan to get back on my supplements; maybe I can forego the doctor entirely.

Hello OuttaHere,

I would suggest checking out the link between trytophan (precursor of serotonin) & niacin. Tryptophan is converted by the body to b3 & b6 when needed at a rate of 60:1 . Niacin is a potent antifungal antibiotic and all around antimicrobal in large doses.

The thought is that people with toxic levels of fungi, bacteria, microbes may be using the vast majority of tryptophan from the diet to convert into b3. This would cause serotonin to be depleted eventually. I think niacin (try inositol hexaniacinamide) would help you greatly!!

When taking these alternative approaches, it's hard to figure out what causes what. There's correlations, but it's a chicken and egg scenario when you begin trying to add it all up. It seems a root cause of many of these ailments may be an unhealthy gut.

What causes this? Probably many factors. Junk food, chemical additives, processed foods (which take out zinc) , lack of proper sleep, over stressing, genetic abnormalities, etc...

To repair the gut, I highly recommend purchasing glutamine, or glutathione. This alone will repair the gut in about 6 weeks time!! If you purchase glutamine powder, also use inositol. Best to just use the above inositol hexaniacinamide + glutamine.

Sound/light sensitivity is related to zinc deficiency. When zinc is deficient it's a cascading effect. Hundreds of enzymes become deficient and specific antioxidants are not properly synthesized. This leads to the sensitivities.

If you are also having insomnia, b3 is definately a must. I slept like a baby the first day I self-treated. If you are having this happen take 3 grams IH, and 3 grams vitamin-c spread out throught the day. One gram of each with meals, morning, afternoon, evening. This in NOT too much unless you have a known liver problem. Dosages 10's of times higher has been used before without problems. Many more reported liver problems come from pharmaceuticals. In fact, to my knowledge there's less than a dozen reported cases of liver toxicity from vitamins and tens of thousands of reported cases from pharmaceuticals.

Now that I think about it, since you are on pharmaceuticals be careful to watch your stool and for nausea, indigestion if you decide to take this. Stool should be brown from the bile produced in the liver. If it's not there's probably problems there. If there's nausea after taking the supplements with a full meal then the dosage is too high. I can take these two in these dosages on an empty stomache without any problems.

Be sure if you try the niacin to take the vitamin-c also. Niacin raises your histamine levels. Vitamin-c lowers them. Taken together in equal dosages, they work to buffer the histamine level to what the body requires.

B3 & Vit-C was the beginning of my treatment. I then went to zinc and b6 plus many more. You may need to do the same. Probably so, if you're having the light/sound sensitivities.

Once again the tests are easy. Either self experimentation, or get the mauve factor (kryptopyyrole) test done.

Hope this helps with all my heart

Goodluck All...

Oh yes, last thing to add tap water is very bad for you. Drink distilled or spring water. Tap water has fluoride and chlorine in it that destroys the internal flora of the gut. A BIG no-no. I haven't drank tap water in over a year. Lovin' it. After you switch, you'll be disgusted by the smell and taste of tap water. We're just so desensitized to it!

Thought you might be a little more open minded if the replied info didn't seem to come from me.

I'm glad you came clean – it's nice to know who's talking.

I can't speak for anyone else but I think I would have been as openminded to the info if I had known it was you. What impressed me was that the response: 1) acknowledged the point I made and didn't try to pretend it didn't exist; 2) pointed me in the direction of useful information; and 3) didn't get overly defensive about my questioning the matter.

Too often proponents of alternative medicine go directly to "you're being brainwashed by Big Pharma" if I question how something works, and that's a big turnoff to me. I question Big Pharma about how their products work, why wouldn't I ask the same things about vitamins?

And I'm glad you didn't actually decide to give up on ATS It looks like this thread is even getting some more attention, and it may pick up also after the holidays – everything on ATS seems to be slow right now.

PS – a caution about drinking distilled water. It can actually pull electrolytes out of your body, so be careful to keep your electrolyte levels up. I'm sure there's good information about this on the internet – I'm just passing along a warning from a friend who ended up in the hospital after switching to only distilled water without compensating for the loss of water-soluble nutrients.

I was so interested to read this! My husband has been suffering the following symptoms:

Depression, sensitive to light, argumentaive, seems almost to be unable to resist causing one, and 5 minutes laters wants another, then another, morning sickenss/retching, unable to eat first thing., pref for spicy food, anxiuos, disturb sleep, tired all the time, often thinks other people are whispering about him or talking about him behind his back, dislikes to be around people other than me or his parents, has irrational outbursts of temper over ridiculous things, has no patience at all.

He went to the doctor who tested his heart, took his blood pressure etc. She didn't ask for a urine sample at all. She finally gave him 10 tiny pills for depression which did nothing. Somethines he has all of these symptoms, other times just some of them and always to lesser or higher degrees than each other. I feel as though I have lost my best friend. He has always had tendancies to suffer from these symtoms (except sensitivity to light) ever since I met him when he was 22, 13 years ago but now they seem to have taken over our lives.

It all kicked off the day he gave up smoking. The symtoms he had always had seemed to be intensified over night. Knowing that these symptoms had always been there I thought he was just going through a bad patch at work and with giving up smoking etc but it has gone on and on and on. After 8 months of not smoking he decided to start again. Although he is far less intent on starting an argument all the other symptoms are as strong as ever. If we pass a car during the day or a motorbike that has it lights on (as some do) he hates it, even becomes slightly angry, he complains of being able to feel/see the light for about a minute after it has passed.

I'm going to re-read the post and try the vitamins mentioned, anything is worth a try, the doctor just isn't interested. One other thing I have noticed which isn't mentioned in your post and may be unconnected. I can always tell when he is about to have a bad time, his skin seems to look flushed as though he has been running or exerting himself, a bit red n blotchy.

I'm off to re-read the post. Be very interested to find out more on this subject, I was so come across it and think that we are not going mad after all!!
