insane...

I just joined more writing communities. Insanity, thy name is Elizabeth.

I never realized how unhealthy my diet is until now. I took an assessment at The World's Healthiest Foods, and if nutrients were hair, I'd be a naked mole rat. I exaggerate slightly, but still. At least half of them listed depression as a sign of deficiency. Not that I expect nutrition to solve all my problems, but it would help. I am now officially watch my calories and sodium intake. I'm going to start planning my meals, too.

Going to church tomorrow. Forcing myself to, actually. I can't keep isolating myself, even if it's what I feel like doing. It's just not healthy.

If you try with food, try to get it from a natural food store, or a local supplier (farmers market). Produce you get from big grocery stores was picked early and ripened in a truck, so a lot of the nutrients don't have a chance to develop.

I've been taking good vitamins for a couple of years steady now, and I don't get sick often. (that's saying a lot, since I work in a clinic. Seems like every other patient of ours has come in this year with the flu.)
