“80% of Europeans are either COMT Val/Met or Met/Met meaning that the enzyme (catechol-o-methyltransferase) that breaks down dopamine, epinephrine, norepinephrine, and estrogen contains methionine which is inhibited by the presence of mercury. This is why mercury exposed people experience anxiety, insomnia, fear, hyperactivity, anger and many other emotional conditions. This also explains hyper-estrogen.” ~ Russ Tanner

Mercury interferes with all body systems including hormone production. When GABA (gamma-Aminobutyric acid) production is inhibited, emotions become amplified and can become out-of-control. Worry about small issues becomes obsessive and overwhelming.
Mercury is called “The Fear Drug” because it quite literally induces fear into the subject who is exposed.
Different people are affected differently, but virtually everyone shows some symptomatic manifestation when exposed to mercury over time.
Young teens often start exhibiting rebelliousness, laziness, apathy, or disconnection after placement of first amalgam fillings. Society has been taught to blame it on “hormones”.
Mercury may now be a global epidemic because of ongoing “chemtrail” aerosol injection (spraying) of coal fly ash which contains large amounts of methyl-mercury, the same type of mercury found in fish.
Compact fluorescent light bulbs also contains large amounts of mercury. According to a study conducted by the State of Maine, if you break a CFL light bulb in your house, you will likely be exposed to hazardous, disease-causing levels of mercury even after an EPA-approved cleanup is completed.
