Yesterday and today I didn't take TRS. I needed a break *gasp*
OK I am usually not the type who takes break, I push through, or back down but I keep on going. Which is not a smart attitude when it comes to heavy metal detox. This is a marathon, not a sprint. So the past days I had been very much on the edge. My sleep had gotten extremely bad, and I never had issues with my sleep. I had moved to a new house so I thought it was the new environment, the new bed, whatever. And then I found out there were bed bugs. The first nights I still believed it was mosquito bites all over me but then realized that I never heard the ssss sound, had never seen a mosquito and overall had so many bites that just didn't look like mosquito bites. So I inspected the sheets and found many tiny tiny spots which apparently is a sign for bed bugs. Aaaaaaah!!! It's a pretty old house and it is FULL of stuff from the owners. Like virtually every drawer you open is full of sheets, blankets and jesus figure. Heaven for bed bugs I guess. What's a girl gotta do... So the past days I started my war against the critters and my coworker gave me Diatomaceous Earth. Oh the irony! I had always thought of ordering some because many people recommend it to kill parasites internally (some say it is too harsh though on the gut).... and here I am getting a whole pound for free! So I am spreading the Diatomaceous Earth around the bed and along the walls and sockets, washing everything at 60 degrees and packing everything else in black plastic bags which I put in the sun (luckily Andalusian summer is here by now). Heat kills them. So yeah I had felt a bit off the past week, also had some pretty stressful events at work. I was irritated, my hair got super dry and brittle again, my mood dropped, one night I had a massive itchy scalp again, and blah. Well I realised my body was needing a break. So many things at once, the TRS detox, the extra stress at work, the bed bugs and not enough sleep (which also is enhanced by the TRS), and then I upped my gym sessions to three times a week - too much. So yesterday I didn't take the TRS and voilá I slept through the whole night. Maybe also the bed bugs got a bit less already, thanks to the Diatomaceous Earth (although they say it takes a few days to kill them) or the lavender pillow I hugged in bed (apparently they don't like lavender) or the fact that I was wearing long trousers, socks and a long sleeve shirt. Whatever - sleep!!! I felt so grateful. So yes, don't underestimate the power of the TRS. It is very potent and at times can still wipe me out. I had an afternoon where I took a nap and literally felt like I couldn't move afterward, utter fatigue. I will continue a bit less carefree. Which always helps with detox symptoms: Magnesium! Vitamin C! More Water! Bitters for the liver! Adaptogens! Sleep! Oh btw two days ago I had meat again after a longer break and voilá had an orgasm in my sleep. This often happens to me after eating meat. Is it the zinc? A propos zinc, my nails look great these days! The white spots have almost completely grown out, so maybe my zinc levels are way better now. Still no sign of half moons though, sigh. Let's hope I continue sleeping better now...
