> I think I have some undermethylation tendencies as well as I have OCD and get suicidal at times.
>
> Symptoms I fit:
> -Body Hair - I don't seem to have much given my age and male gender (22 years old)
> -Anxiety tendencies where you're calm on outside but anxious on inside - When I get anxious, I appear relatively calm on the outside as if there's nothing wrong with me, but on the inside, I'm in turmoil, and I'm full of fear and anxiety.
> -OCD Tendencies - I have tic syndromes, thought loops, compulsive behaviors, quadruple+ checking, ice-chewing habits
> -Perfectionist - I like things to be neat and as perfect as possible. No chewing gum jobs.
> -Warm/itchy skin - My skin tends towards warmer side, and I tend to get itchy at times. I have always had a habit of scratching due to itching.
> -Low pain toloerance - I never have been able to stand pain. I would always be scared of anything that would produce it.
> -Dry Eyes - No. My eyes would tend to get wet easily, esp. around onions and some other things.
> -High Academic/Science Accomplishment - I had high academic accomplishment in high school as I took college courses and finished with 50 credit hours. Science/Math was the area that I was always strongest in, and literature/arts was the area that I was weakest in.
> -High Motivation - I have always been self-motivated through school and at work
> -Few Dental Caries - I never had any fillings except a few when I had baby teeth when a child.
> -Low Appetite - My appetite naturally is pretty low.
> -I react normally to anti-histamines
> -Mood Response to AD's positive - Mood response is positive at lower dosages and/or when dose isn't too high, but I get manic and have cycle acceleration moreso when doses are pushed really high.
> -Symptoms when Psychosis Present - Only delusional thinking. I never have nor had auditory or visual hallucinations.
> My parents get on to me about the OCD sometimes and state that it's a bad case sometimes. Also, my friends talk about how I have to be perfectionistic about certain things and check over stuff I do more than necessary.
>
> However, I wonder if Pyroluria is my primary imbalance, though, as I have the most symptoms of those, like around 90% of them.
>
> I already do take 2:1 Calcium/Magnesium Glycinate which is one of the hallmark supplements for undermethylation. The stuff I take right now for Pyroluria also happens to be beneficial for undermethylated (high histamine) persons.
>
> Oh, I forgot to mention that I also take 3g of Vitamin C per day as part of my supplement regimen.
>
> Also, there was mentioning that undermethylators should avoid Choline/Lecithin.
>
> Well, I took that stuff one time and at pretty high doses. There were claims from pages that it would help with rapid cycling bipolar.
>
> Well, it actually pitched me into a severe depression.
>
> This was back after the 1st week of July. For the preceding two months, I had been doing fairly well on my medications and set of supplements. I was on just 200mg Lamictal by itself.
>
> The Lecithin/Choline-induced depression got pretty bad, and I missed a week of work.
>
> Once it was out of my system, the depression lifted.
>
> Folic Acid as also 'appeared' to be a bugger for me. Everytime, for some reason, when I took it, I would get in these agitated mental fits having negative self-talks. My mother doesn't like me taking Folic Acid anymore.
>
> So, could it be possible that I have some histadelic tendencies as well along with my possible Pyroluria?


It is possible to have both Histadelia and Pyloruria-about 10% would overlap.Please get tests done for histamine and pyroluria
