I am a 43 years old widow with children. I have been through a great deal in my life, and dealt with it as graciously, and with as much ease as could ever be expected.
A couple of years ago, I started having incredible debilitating anxiety. It made the relative "nothings" of my current life seem more overwhelming than the suicide death of my husband. Anxiety can be amazingly overwhelming. It can distort thinking, and make someone an emotional basket case. When I started bio-identical hormones with the mono-level method, I experienced great relief. About 6 months ago, I began to have more anxiety. It was when we increased my hormones, and scheduled them with the 28 day variation, as per your protocol, that I have seen a total relief of the anxiety, reduction in confidence, and distorted thinking that had affected me. Please understand that my primary reason for writing is to state that nothing I have read nothing anywhere which adequately describes how badly I felt, how debilitated I was, how much it affected my relationships, and how incredibly unstable I felt without the proper hormonal regimen. I felt insane, and actually lost a friend over it. I tried hypno-therapy, The Linden Method, and more; only to find that nothing will correct the symptoms without correcting the real problem; which, in my case was a hormone deficit. Keep in mind, that I am extremely healthy and maintain 28% body fat. I take a variety of supplements known for their anti-aging benefits, exercise, eat very well, and sleep 8 hours each night. I also have 4 children and run a couple of businesses. This problem took me down. I am so thankful for Dr. Felipe Garcia, bio-identical hormones and this protocol. I cannot tell you how debilitated I was prior to your protocol ; and I cannot tell you how wonderful I feel, now. If someone who has managed to be so strong, stable, and confident for 40 yrs can become an anxiety ridden, depressed ball of mush, and bio-identicals hormones and the Wiley protocol completely resolve it, I believe that more recognition should be given to how bad the hormone disfunction associated with aging can be. I believe that many women out there are on anti-anxiety or seratonin inhibitors when they need to have their hormones evaluated. I was so bad off that all the incredibly amazing things in my world began to look gloomy; and I had physically debilitating anxiety from the moment I woke, until I again went to sleep. Thank you so very much. |
