Mental Health Awareness Part 2 Toxic Metals

7 Reasons Why Healthy People Who Should Be Happy Are NOT.
Is This You? #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth

So many people eat clean, exercise, have great lives but still feel off.
Depressed. Numb. Anxious. Exhausted. Why?

Here are 7 slept on reasons you’re not as happy or healthy as you should be.

1 Mold Exposure
Black mold isn’t just in old basements. It hides in homes, AC units, even your office.
Mold toxins inflame the brain, block dopamine, damage mitochondria, and impair memory.
You can’t think clearly in a toxic house.
Symptom Clues: brain fog, apathy, anxiety, low motivation, weird reactions to wine, water damage history.

2 Toxic Heavy Metals
Aluminum, mercury, lead, arsenic, and cadmium can store in your brain, liver, and nerves for decades.
They mess with neurotransmitters, especially dopamine, serotonin & GABA.
From Thimerosal, cookware, mercury dental fillings, tap water, canned foods, and cosmetics.
Symptoms: mood swings, ADHD, fatigue, emotional numbness, slow thinking.

3 Lyme Disease + Coinfections
Borrelia and coinfections like Babesia, Bartonella, and Mycoplasma live in biofilms and attack your brain and nerves.
May result as depression, bipolar, MS, or fibromyalgia.
Chronic Lyme = brain inflammation + neurotransmitter chaos.
Clues: unrefreshing sleep, migrating pain, mood crashes, memory gaps.

4 SSRIs
These meds may help in crisis but long-term, they can flatten emotions, numb pleasure, and deplete key brain nutrients like B vitamins, magnesium, and CoQ10.
(DO NOT QUIT COLD TURKEY!)
Many report feeling “emotionally dead” after years on SSRIs.

5 MAOIs
Monoamine oxidase inhibitors can be effective but they block the enzyme that breaks down excess neurotransmitters.
Over time, this can flood the brain or burn it out leading to emotional instability or dangerous spikes in serotonin.
Plus: Look out for any contraindicated food and drug interactions!

6 Alcohol
Even moderate drinking destroys gut bacteria, depletes B1 (thiamine), shrinks the brain, and inflames the liver leading to irritability, anxiety, and low energy.
The “happy hour” effect is a trap. It robs tomorrow’s serotonin for today’s buzz.

7 Recreational & Street Drugs
Weed, MDMA, cocaine, meth, and more flood the brain with dopamine or serotonin. It leaves you depleted, anxious, or depressed.
Long-term use changes your brain chemistry, damages sleep cycles, and triggers paranoia or apathy.
The high isn’t free. Your mental health pays the price as you chase the dragon.

Moral of the Story:
You’re not crazy.
You’re not broken.
You’re likely toxic or inflamed and your brain is trying to survive.
You can’t in-tox your way out of mold.
You can’t mindset your way out of mercury & metals.
You can’t meditate your way out of chronic Lyme.

It’s time to go deeper.
Functional labs.
Real detox.
Root-cause healing.
