How I accidentally cured my major depression
To depressed people everywhere,
Please read my entire story of major depression as I think some of you will find relief for your depression contained herein. I do not promise a cure to all, but some of you will find my story to be worthwhile information. I write this having suffered greatly with depression and I do not want you to suffer any more than necessary.
My name is John. I had major depression for over 3.5 years. I have degrees in chemistry and biology. While I was depressed, I spent many hours each month researching depression. I was trying to find a cure. My research revealed no cures or even good treatments. My best information about depression came from my personal efforts to end depression.
I treated my depression by taking St. John’s Wort (“SJW”) capsules (300 mg capsules containing 0.3% hypericin) five to six times per day and taking 0.3 – 0.4 mg of melatonin before going to bed. I also consumed a tremendous amount of chocolate. Toward the end of my depression, I occasionally consumed two capsules of SJW at a time.
Melatonin is a hormone that has to be taken at the right dosage. Too much melatonin can make your sleep experience worse than too little melatonin. Melatonin once consumed is deactivated by light. If you take melatonin dim the lights or you will deactivate the melatonin inside your body. I learned about melatonin use from a chemist friend that had performed animal research involving lizards and melatonin. He told me that the 1 and 3 mg melatonin pills sold over the counter were too much melatonin. The dosages I suggest come from my personal experiences with melatonin. If you decide to use melatonin, please start at the dosages I suggest and adjust up or down by 0.1 mg increments. Only take melatonin within two hours of going to bed, dim the lights while waiting to get drowsy, and be in a relaxed state. Please keep reading as my story has more worthwhile information.
During my depressed state, I exhibited every symptom of depression. I have always believed in treating the cause of the problem and not the symptoms. The treatment regimen I used and the often prescribed prescription medications only treat the symptoms. I was looking for the cause of my depression. The cause of my depression eluded me for 3.5 years. I cured my depression accidentally.
At the end of my depressed state, I was unemployed due to my employer selling the business. My depression was requiring more SJW to alleviate my blue moods. I had two small warts (papilloma virus) growing on my nose and about ten or twelve very tiny warts growing elsewhere on my face. As a chemist I usually treated my warts with concentrated laboratory acids. However, I did not want all the healing acid burn sores on my face while interviewing for jobs. I tried many different treatments to get rid of the warts. The warts were very resistant to all treatments. I learned from my research on warts that two of the better treatments for resistant warts were potassium and colloidal silver.
I had never used colloidal silver before treating the warts. I followed the warts advice and increased my consumption of potassium containing foods. Caution: too much potassium can cause heart problems. The best sources for potassium are sweet potatoes, potatoes, prunes, and raisins. I followed the warts advice about colloidal silver and I ingested 1 teaspoon of 15 ppm colloidal silver solution three to four times per day. I also applied the colloidal silver solution topically to the warts. I was also consuming immune support herbal tea frequently during the week. Colloidal silver is supposedly a powerful antiviral chemical.
Within two days of taking the colloidal silver my depressed symptoms were gone. I continued taking the herbal tea, potassium, colloidal silver, and SJW for several weeks to make sure my major depression was gone. It is my opinion as a person having a biology degree that my depression was caused by a brain virus. A virus that occupies the brain, spinal cord, and membranes of the central nervous system is very hard to kill because many medications and immune factors can not invade the blood brain barrier.
After the formation of my opinion, I researched viruses and depression. The research showed that viruses can affect moods. The Borna disease virus is an example of a virus that infects the mood parts of the brain. The Borna disease virus is a mammalian virus that is known to kill horses and sheep. Because of my experience, I think some people having major depression can cure themselves by pursuing antiviral treatments that are able to pass through the blood brain barrier. Colloidal silver cured my major depression.

Re: How I accidentally cured my major depression
I began to search for a natural cure for depression when the antidepressants I was on were making things worse - thanks to the negative side effects. So, if you're like me, you may be searching for the same thing. I hope my research will benefit you as it did in my own life...

Re: How I accidentally cured my major depression
I am cured. I have not had a depressed thought since taking colloidal silver. I continue taking colloidal silver and potassium rich foods to cure warts. I have two more visible warts to cure. I went off of the colloidal silver for a day and my depressed thoughts did not return. I plan to continue the colloidal silver for a month after my warts are no longer visible just to make sure the warts are dead. I want to add that oil of sage (mixture of a few ounces of sage and 10 ounces of a plant oil - aged for a day or two) is good for topical application to the warts after application of topically applied colloidal silver. I urge that depression patients take colloidal silver for a minimum of two months just to make sure that they kill the virus, if they have a brain virus. I am happier than I have ever been before in my life.
I am no longer searching for a cure. I am cured of depression. No longer do I wake up more tired than before I slept. No longer do I consume two to three chocolate bars per day trying to improve my mood. No longer do I buy more knives than I need. No longer do I sleep only 1.5 - 4 hours per day average. No longer do I take mid-day deep breathing relaxation sessions to refresh my mental abilities. No longer am I confused trying to make complicated choices. No longer do I consume high amounts of caffeine just to get in the mood for going to work. No longer do I stay awake for 37 hours straight because I have no sleepy feelings. I actually get sleepy now - every day. No longer do I go shopping in an altered mental state. For several years I did not get mail because I did not care about the mail. I have recently began communicating with my close relatives with whom I have not communicated in over two and a half years. These are people that have done nothing to alienate me. I just did not care about communicating with people. My brother was wondering if I was dead. I could go on and mention other things that have changed. I have been cured since taking colloidal silver. I urge depressed people to try to follow the treatment course in my first post.
It really bothered me at the dearth of information about depression cures and natural depression treatment plans. This is part of the reason I wrote my first post. I want depressed people to have some avenue of non-psychotic drug treatments. My story of St. John's wort and melatonin is how I treated my depression until I found a cure. I suffered greatly because of depression. I do not want other people to have to suffered as long as I did or to the extent I suffered.
If colloidal silver does not cure your depression within two months of treatment, keep searching for treatments that other people have successfully used. Our drug industry only develops treatments because treatments are more lucrative than cures. People with mental illnesses need cures with no lasting side effects. Treatments that only mitigate some of the symptoms are unsatisfactory to those people afflicted with mental illness. Afflicted people deserve better treatment than this from compassionate civilized people.
If you have a cure or beneficial treatment for mental illness, patent it or market it as a trade secret. If you can not protect your treatments in this manner while making your treatment available to suffering people, then you should reveal your treatment as a charitable service to a group of people that need the help of other unafflicted or cured people. I want other depressed people to feel happy.

Re: How I accidentally cured my major depression
I believe you. I am a Hipaa auditor, and they asked me to do dumpster diving for hipaa phi. I did it (to say I did it atleast once in my life). The temperatures outside was over 103, the hasmat suit had to be 120, and I did it for 11 1/2 hours, barely out of the suit. I did it for two days. I'm short and almost fell into the trash several times. I lost a necklace my son gave me, which I promptly replaced, which sent me into a huge depression. The situation, high temperatures, nature of the project, made me nearly manic. I did a google search, and something hit me. Try colloidal silver.
I did, 1 teaspoon, 4 times a day. 2 days later, my thoughts cleared. I'm going to keep taking it for awhile to make sure I'm right. I've been a nurse for 17 years, and I am a doctor of metaphysics. 2 days later, my thoughts are completely clear.
