I have to say I feel the same way. I have tried the diet about 4 times in 114 years. I realised I had this terrable illness that many years ago. Still today there is no real help. So I give up. I suffer from verdigo at least once a year probably because of Candida. I have given up for the most part and try to live my life the best I can. So Im with you on this. I wish I could be more possitive but I know how hard it is. The longest I was on this diet was six months. I felt so good. I made the mistake that I thought I could eat one little tast of Sugar and that is all it took to send me off the deep end. No matter how hard I tried to stop and get back on my way of eating I couldn't. I too feel this is the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with. :^( ivorysoul
