From your above message you had mentioned your symptoms are being sensitive to light and sound. Are there any mental issues other then depression and angry? If you are just sensitive to lights and sounds.....I am curious if the light therapy you were inquiring about would affect you? Is the video below a good example of your situation? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBytZNr4WkI

Since we are all ignorant and should be ashamed for helping you would you mind informing us what your symptoms are other then depression and anger. Tell us how we are to understand other than reading and researching it. no one is trying to argue, we are only trying to have compassion. If we know your symptoms exactly how they are it might help us which in turn could help you

Thnx Marcina Well everyone has their own issues and the only person that can change it is one's self. You can lead a horse to water but you can't force it to drink. We can be compassionate but don't need to take a slap in the face when we have given good advice but is not what someone "wants" to hear. If you can't, you're right. If you can, you're right. I also wonder about the playing of the "card" as what you had mentioned. Because if someone can write, speak and understand well....what's the real issue going on? All I have seen is negativity and resistance. Many people are addicted to their emotions in turn their thoughts, words & actions are a result of that addiction. Change your emotion your thoughts change, change your thought your words change , change your words your action change, change your action you have a different result. The best advice I can ever say to anyone including myself is to ask yourself....are you getting the out come you want? If not you need to change something. All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him. ~Buddha

wow really? so this is what some people do when they are bored?

perfect thanks 4 the tips everyone.... for some reason I always thought you could only put bananas in the cupboard...well now its fridge and freezer for me........

really! wow i always wondered about that. Thank you. I will be doing that fro now on

Alright I have been thinking about this for a long time and feel that the banana rips me off. Is there a way to make this yummy food last longer? They never last!

tissue salts are good for you when you are lacking....nothing like table salt...which I don't even have in my home. There are all different types of tissue salts out there. right now I'm on some homeopathy stuff. so far I've been on this 5 combo diet for a week and have notice huge changes. I actually fall asleep with in 10mins not 2-3 hrs and wake up through out the night. I have been "regular" which is the first time ever in my life. With my hypoglycemia I haven't had the shakes, dizziness and other symptoms as much. Although its only been a week I made drastic changes. It's not easy and I find I am going to have to find a vitamin box to remember all my vitamins also making sure I graze through out the day is a bit hard. I actually gave away 1 1/2 large black garbage bags full of stuff I no longer will eat...including anything with ingredients that are not natural. The only "treat" I have had this week was whole grain tortilla chips with organic salsa. I felt ok though I noticed with spices I have to be careful as I was pretty bloated. Here is a link about tissue salts http://www.basicsource.ca/products/

I sat back on this one for a bit and wanted to hear some responses. I was actually waiting for someone to come on and say you were being defensive or something similar. Personally I had other thoughts. Sounds rude but I will explain. There are people out in the world who are connected meaning we believe we are spirits having a human experience. How this relates is the fact that people feel empathy and do their best to help others, which is what we all have been doing. A simple thank you and showing some gratification that complete strangers would come together to help another stranger as best as they can would have been a start on how easy it is to change your thoughts. If you want to say we don't know what its like that partial wrong....we all live on this earth not just you. To think someone with autism is separate is just selfish because we are here too. We hear about, see it and have met people with it. lets say you go to the corner store and act out, do you really think that clerk didn't have to deal with it? People with mental and physical disabilities are all around us. No one is perfect and we all deal with it in one way or another. Further more we all have our own personal issues. Millions deal with depression, anxiety, alcoholism, drug addictions, sex addictions and much more. The problem is most people are addicted to their thoughts and emotions. Through every situation that might appear negative there is something positive that can come from it. For example you are in martial arts. How many people are out there that wish they could do that? People look up to people like you. You have great use of grammar. I also bet you are very intelligent and probably could get or have a very good job. I want to point out which I am sure other have noticed is you came on here looking for help with SAD. We tried to help then you bring up something totally different on us and then say we don't understand. Of all the advice we have given you have dismissed each and every one saying you will get help from your social worker and my neuro psychiatrist which is fine. The real question is if you put so much faith and trust in them why are you on here looking for answers? There is obviously something missing that you are not getting from your doctors. Also not every person in the medical field is perfect that's why we have so many which is why you should go and try other things and go to other people. Like you said "you know for a fact diet helps some". Well if you know that.....have you not tried it? Also the GFCF diet takes up to 6 months for results. The more negative you want to focus on something, the more reality and power you give it! What have you changed in your life to make things better? Whats working for you and whats not working for? What are you grateful for? ask yourself that. If that one is hard you can start with I have a computer, I can type well, I can do martial arts, I have legs etc. You can either change your situation or you can accept it. Right now you are fighting up stream and resisting everything. There is nothing wrong with you, you are just simply living through your ego. Stop focusing on this condition and focus on what makes you happy. Its a proven fact the more someone says they are depressed the more they will become depressed. Now a trick is not saying to yourself "I'm not depressed" why because you are still thinking about it. try saying "I am happy, I love myself". Here's a test.....right now don't think of a blue elephant. I bet a picture for most people of an elephant appeared in their heads. The mind is so powerful. Start focusing on things you like and enjoy. Yes it is hard and takes time. Nothing great comes easy. Have you tried meditating at least 15 minutes a day everyday? Try that. I hope I struck a nerve because if I have that means you are absorbing some of this. My apologies a head of time if this was running on a bit or my spelling / grammar was lacking....sometimes my brain just goes into over drive

Marcina thank you so much.... Yes I find animal products, dairy, breads, pasta all effect me. As for fiber I have tried everything but the only kind that seems to work is high fiber / water fruits and veggies. anything else makes me more constipated, bloated and in pain. Right now I'm trying tissue salts my naturopathic doc suggested so fingers crossed. You are so right about a list...and I have started doing that and really noticed what foods work and don't work. I don't eat chocolate and no way for any coffee unless I want to be bouncing off my walls. Large meals are also no good for me...I'm just started to graze now.

Thank you and you are totally right....I did kinda fly off with the wrong question in this area....I will post in another area, I just got too excited Thank you for the heads up on the fruits / veg.

I did mention it...yes I am sure that is a very complex situation but guaranteed that any depression and or anxiety would not help it either. you have to heal your body and mind. stress accounts for 90% of all diseases. Nutrition plays a HUGE role as well. Please do some research on the net and even youtube about a GFCF diet, biomedical, oxygen therapy, and also look up Alpha stim 100. Yes the product is expensive but people's health and well being is priceless and apparently this machine does work, has been on the news and all feedback as been very positive. there are things you can do but you have to make the first step and the first step is being positive, doing the research and then do the homework. I know 2 children with autism. Here is a google link for alpha stim 100 http://video.google.ca/videosearch?hl=en&client=firefox-a&channel=s&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hs=CDn&q=alpha%20slim%20100&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wv#hl=en&client=firefox-a&channel=s&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=CDn&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wv&q=alpha+stim+100 http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&channel=s&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hs=CDn&q=alpha%20stim%20100&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=vw http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&channel=s&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=Eu7&q=alpha+stim+100+for+autism&btnG=Search&meta= PS if you feel you have to wear ear muffs then do it proudly and with a smile...don't focus on judging yourself...

I agree with tanning beds and a connection with cancer...that was one of the "problems" I was gonna mention but didn't. My sister works in a hospital and see skin cancer way too often....I was however mentioning it because it does give you vit D. It's like trading one thing for another. It also works much faster then light therapy unfortunately. I also agree anxiety and depression can be help and end. Also there is a connection between the both of them in most cases. I also want to mention it is not a disease or illness. its a habitual way of thinking and some believe a chemical imbalance. what you gotta do is do as much research as you can and find out what works for you. Other things to look up are your adrenal glans, hormones, thyroid. As far as your asperger syndrome (I know someone is gonna debate this)... I have also looked it up because I wanted to see if there was any connection. that part I never got to but what I did find out is some people have treated it and the symptoms have dissipated. what they did was a GFCF diet. I stumbled on some stuff on the net and youtube. Check out some stuff Jenny McCarthy says about her son and how she help her little guy. You may find something really good. There is a huge body / mind connection.....if you can heal your body you can heal your mind and visversa. Ps don't be too hard on yourself either cause no one is perfect. http://www.generationrescue.org/

you don't have to like anyone at all...liking everyone is a bit hard. being compassionate doesn't mean u have to go out for lunch with everyone

Say no to harass and more to hugs
