[Everything doTERRA] Re: Mental Health Struggles of a Teenage Brother

My son began that journey at around the same age. Gluten was THE
biggest issue. The problem was, he didn't want to eat gluten free and
still doesn't. Then he got into some trouble and ended up diagnosed
with Bi-Polar disorder, that then got him put on Lithium. He was on
it 1 1/2 years and did NOT like it. He finally quit. STILL would not
eat gluten free. In desperation I searched homeopathy. I found a
book called "Homeopathic Psychology" by Phillip M Bailey, M.D. When
he was a young child a homeopathic Dr. had put him on constitutional
sulfur. I looked up sulfur and that seemed to fit. I ordered a 10m
dose from a website in Canada he muscle tests daily, he averages about
1 time a week with a dose and sometimes when he's stressed out he
needs 2 x a week. He preferred this to the oils because the oils
tended to need to be used every day.

Not to say the oils didn't work, it was just being the age he was, he
didn't want to do them every day. He's 25 now, he is using oils
(balance mostly) AND the sulfur. T think the balance is the most
effective of all of the oils that we tried. He puts it on his feet,
his arms and his heart.

Good Luck, I know the journey can be tenuous, AND I know that family
support, understanding and awareness helped our family help him cope
and still does.

> Kathy, from my understanding of the blends, it is a somewhat pre-caution for mixing too many blends together in that they won't have the same potency needed. I usually use maybe one blend with several other single blends. I don't have anything to back that up, but just something I read somewhere, and can't remember where. Maybe someone else might have a comment to add to that, or some documentation. Thanks, Happy oiling,

>  I would take the info one of the girls sent to you about testing everything - I also know someone here in Southern Utah who is a registered nurse who also does amazing things for all kinds of issues, mental and physical that also might be helpful and it is alternative therapy.  Let us know what you do and please keep us informed, this information can help so many people so please let us know what works for him - my problem with one of my daughters is that she is very negative and has many ADD symptoms and also dyslexia and is very defiant.  She finally agreed if I made her a rollerball with everything mixed together that she would use it herself at night before bed and in the morning (on the bottom of feet) so I am mixing all these together for her to use in a rollerball - balance, frankincense, elevation in one rollerball and vetiver & lavender in another.  She loves peppermint so we may have to add peppermint to them too LOL
