 I also discovered that milk was causing me to have like a kind of a subclinical sore throat all the time. I also decided, did not decide to, discovered that when I stopped drinking milk, I stopped crying. So, I’ve been crying like every four days, not like clockwork, but regularly, but about little things here and there. But the really deep, deep black dogs of depression, suicidal ideation, boom, gone overnight, never to return.

Dr P. Teeya Scholten

But if we think of ourselves as stress buckets, then you know we can, there’s good stress, bad stress, but it’s stress. And it all adds up into our stress bucket. And you know, maybe we have a job we don’t really like, maybe our neighbors have been irritating, maybe we’re dealing with teenagers, maybe we have a cat allergy do you know what I mean, it all adds up. And then somebody cuts us off in traffic and boom our stress bucket overflows

Dr P. Teeya Scholten

We have a choice here we can take stressors out of our stress bucket. Like don’t let the cat in the bedroom anymore. Or remove a couple of inflammatory foods from your diet like take out milk products.

Probably not the right direction. And then I was so honored to have one of my just such precious mentors, actually suggested to me that I consider the Applied Psychology program at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education. And I took his advice and have really never looked back. Because the Applied Psychology covered clinical as well as educational, that type of thing.

Right.

 

Dr P. Teeya Scholten 03:25
