Hello from a sun and gardening obsessor. My biggest social challenges are my fixation on reciprocity and avoiding helicoptering others. I will be sixty in a few years. I have no social life because of my hyperosmia, orthorexia, and obsessions at home. I never miss people I disconnect from, just the opportunity to rave on about obsessions with someone else.

Every challenge listed in my signature has a formal diagnosis except Aspergers. I no longer bother with doctors and counselors because they can't fix themselves and I don't want to add more to what the government already thinks it knows about me.

When I was 20 I had some brain scans to rule out tumors because of my chronic migraine. The neuro mentioned amygdala anomalies and vascular "kinks". So, when I got my genetic profile results last year and saw all the MTHFR crap and other detox issues, I got on with embracing my quirky self and not judging my friendlessness. At least I cured my own lifelong chronic migraine! But my orthorexia is much worse now.

My mom is the most severe compulsive talker I have ever known, much of it stinking thinking. My dad died of Lewy Body Dementia.

Welcome! What's your preferred way of getting magnesium? Tablets, special foods, injections, gnawing bones? I'm also a life-long migraine person.

Hi Darmok,

Magnesium chloride spray for armpit deodorant. Liquid cal mag D3 at bedtime. No epsom salt bath for me because of the sulfate.
