Health - 24 July 2007

It hasn't reached the expiry date yet but I opened it a few times but didn't take any pills for a few months. I think the fact it has been exposed to oxygen has caused it to deteriorate somewhat. I assume it's safe to take it but wonder which of the components has started disintegrating (vitamin C?) and whether the potency has been reduced so much that it's not worth taking it anymore.

I'd appreciate a somewhat scientific answer or something with a useful link.

This is the WORST time of year for me. 2 decades ago this week, I was discovered exposed to 5 x lethal dosage of Carbon Monoxide (CO) while I was alone. I lost 30 pounds in 2 weeks, because nothing I ate tasted right, my senses went topsy-turvy...cold/hot, my mind gradually berserk, amazingly, those last two weeks, not eating or sleeping kept me ALIVE. I'm a medical MIRACLE. Over a period of 3 months from May thru July I was exposed intermittently. I gradually slipped from reality. Afterwards, I had a 2nd adolescence, I changed drastically, evolved into a completely different person with dyslexia, headaches daily. I even became bisexual ever since after being straight. Recently, my therapist prescribed me 300mg WELLBUTRIN for mild depression and to help me focus. I now feel almost like I did during that exposure, overreacting, anxious,etc. Could my brain damage be stimulated with this medication, causing a psychotic reaction? I lost friends over this, I need PROFESSIONAL ADVICE, PLEASE

I heard a low-calorie diet is enough to lose weight. Is it true? I wanna lose about 20-25lb and I thought a low-fat, low-calorie diet is a good way to do it. What do you think? Thanks!
