Hi,

I've been absent for a while because I fell off the diet when my stepmom
came to visit for a while. It was tough to stick to it when we were eating
out all the time. Kept getting all the mails though for reading enjoyment
later. I do intend to return to it.

I'm unhappy about the fact I'm not the healthiest and I'm tired of side
effects from crap. I remember feeling vaguely queasey from eating salmon
but I didn't think too much of it at the time. I looked in the fridge and
there is flaxseed oil from Flora in there, 1000 mg. So I thought I'd try it
out.

The first time I took it, no biggy. Felt it but not all that strongly. But
last night I took one along with tinned salmon and I hadn't eaten in a
while, well it hit me HARD. It was like a drug. I felt heavy as hell, and
weird sensations along the top of my head, slight dizziness etc. Went to
bed. In the morning I still feel heavy but not as bad and still feel some
pressure in my temples which could be unrelated.

And while in bed I felt depressed. I still feel depressed. This is
frustruating. And it doesn't help that sometimes I get a too rough chiro
adjustment which happened on Wednesday.

Anyways, I was reading and it seems some people react badly to Omega3s and
actually get more depressed from it and I'm wondering how to find out if
I'm one of those people and whether the fish oil caps are diff effects from
flax because I read a message that said he found the flax a heavier punch
that wore off sooner while the fish oil was lighter but went on for longer.

These supplements have drug like effects.

Regard,
Peter.

PS. Sorry for all the run on sentences.
