Running With A Different Pack

All right, I have a few questions. First off, let me say that what I have observed myself and what I have read has shaken me to the very core. I am SCARED. Of course, vivid dreams don't help that. One thing that I would like to know: does anyone here notice any correlation between chems and allergies? I have allergies that just suddenly appeared last year, when I had no previous problems. Plus, my eyes itch constantly. Drops are the only things that keep me from going nuts. Also, I know the incidences of asthma have been increasing. I believe I may have exercise-induced asthma, though I have never been officially tested. I cannot run, or bike, or do anything terribly physical because I get short of breath so easily, then I start with a hacking cough. How many people here have confirmed asthma, or suspect that they may have it? Is there a suspected correlation between chems and thyroid malfunction? I believe that I have a thyroid problem (undiagnosed because I haven't been to the doctor in years as I am AFRAID of him...long story. Let's just say he prescribed antibiotics that he KNEW I was allergic to and I didn't catch it until I got to the pharmacy and they exclaimed in surprise "You can't take these! You're allergic!" )Anyway, I believe I have a thyroid problem because I am severely overweight and have been since I was very young, maybe two or three. I was also wondering about a correlation between chems and mental disorders. Recently, beginning only within this last year, I have been experiencing severe anxiety attacks, for reasons that I cannot explain. The onset was sudden and dramatic. Now, I do realize that all of my difficulties mentally are not due to chems, rather to an abusive situation (physical, sexual, and emotional) in my childhood, and the resulting severe depression. But, I was wondering if chems have any known effect on mental state (other than scaring one half to death.) I'll leave it at those questions for now, I do have more but I don't want them answered all at once as I believe that would be rather overwhelming. Oh, by the way, please excuse any misspellings in this post, my keyboard is seriously malfunctioning right now and I can only type about one letter per second or so. That is getting tedious, so, for now, goodnight. ~ShadowDancer------------------ ~Always Searching~

Trust me ShadowDancer, you are not alone. Here in Florida Asthma is OUT OF CONTROL. At 37 years old, my doctor says I have it. I tell him, that's crazy, but my son and I ARE asthmatic whenever we pick up a cold or have the flu...turns into a big ordeal, having to get out the nebulizer and Alburteral. I've had water on my ears and a ball of phlegm stuck in the center of my sinus for almost 4 weeks now, having to be careful being that whenever I'm sick, I get Asthmatic too. NEVER in my life have I had to deal with this...and it's not just me. It's so rediculous it's almost a joke.And they got the balls to say African and China dust is blowing to the US with fungus in it. Yeah right, I got your DUST. Christy

ShadowD...Chems definately have us coughing and wheezing out of the ordinary, but I want to make mention of food too. The genetically modified Starlink corn has made its way on to everybodies table it seems (unfit for human consumption) and it too is wreaking havoc with peoples' allergies.I for one eat only organic food, but then again,whats organic anymore. As for the mind, well I think we all know that playing with our minds is part of their routine.

Just have to say that lately I've just not been myself. Mostly severe mood swings and general irritability. In fact most of the people in my neighbourhood appear to be feeling the same. I've often thought about the chemtrail connection.Will we ever know for sure? I have a sick feeling in my stomach that it is connected.

I, too, have been feeling the dramatic increase if what has been termed, "chronic fatigue syndrome." -This does not make any sense to me because I am in pretty good overall health. As mentioned befpre, I am a medical professional. I have seen a real increase in allergy rates over the past few years. Even my mother, who has had absolutely no allergies in her LIFE, has been miserable with hay-fever type symptoms and sinus congestion this past year. As for myself, I have a serious decrease in my energy levels, chronic sinusitis and a periodic "itch" in my throat (upper airways) that causes me to have a reflex cough every once in awhile. My sinusitis will NOT go away, it only subsides a bit. I get frequent sinus headaches. I do know that there are more and more people out there that have been reporting anxiety-type symptoms and panic attacks. I, nor I believe anyone currently, can really tie these increases to chemtrails; however, there is a definite increase in people's asthma, allergies, rheumatoid/joint problems, and neurological-type symptoms (i.e. trembling, panic attacks, etc.) It is hard to know whether or not the increased reports of anxiety/panic (GERD/PTSD) have increased because of some as yet unknown causitive factor, or if they are simply being reported more because of increased public awareness and a slowly decreasing public stigma associated with such. I am very concerned about the spraying in our area. This "stress" to me manifests itself not only on the conscious, but on the subconscious level. This problem is SO big in that, for the moment, we cannot escape its deliterious effects. That, alone, is enough to make people convert to a more anxious state. For some, panic attacks manifest themselves as chest pain, difficultly breathing, tremors, headaches and general malaise. These symptoms can also be from more serious disorders. Again, it is simply hard to know whether there is a link between spraying and physical effects. Needless to say, it is my personal opinion that there is INDEED a link. I believe we are altering the pH of our atmosphere, tampering with the natural electromagnetic fields that influence so many life functions (and increase our Cancer risk), and pumping toxins into our atmosphere that, inevitably I feel, will not only be breathed into our lungs, but alos may been consumed in our food and water. I am at a loss as to what to do to escape the situation. This thing (spraying) appears to be one monstrous project. I do know that, sometimes, when enough people are in the know...and enough people are making it difficult for "them" to do their job, then that is when we may have a fighting chance. For me, keeping my wits about me in this horrible situation (spraying) has meant (to borrow a quote).."letting go and let God." I am not overtly religious, but I do have strong beliefs in our maker above. That has helped me. Also, being able to communicate (such as on this board) has helped to get some frustrations out. It's important to express theories also; who knows, we may just have already stumbled upon the truth. God bless. Be strong. Empower yourselves and educate others.

ShadowDancer, Yes to all...everyone posting has had important and useful observations that are all true! Unfortunately! I really do beleive that folks are having moods/emotions affected from the chem situation. The asthma/allergy thing...ditto!! Seems so many folks are presenting with asthma and allergy symptoms even if they never had such before..and folks that already had all that, they keep getting worsening of the ailments! I wish a study could be done in reference to Thyroid problems that seem to be on the increase since the Gulf War and later, when chems showed up!! I have Hypothyroid and have to take meds everyday. Also, the Chronic Fatigue/Gulf WAr Illness/Fibromyalgia/MS all seem prevalent now, more than ever and the Fibromyalgia/Chronic Fatigue/GWI/Ms/ all diseases that are "catch-all" diseases that cause such a myriad of symptoms...it's like FM/CFS are the "new" diseases of the Millennium! They cause so many symptoms yet no one really knows what is causing all that...I strongly feel it is Chemicals, from the sky, chemspraying, pollution, additives, biologicals in air...a myriad of toxic substances that are causing our bodies to "revolt"! I pray for a solution for us all!! Blessings, Joanne
