The Rip Van Winkle Effect

For the past decade or longer I have struggled with unbelievable exhaustion. My doctors would reply," Oh, you feel tired a lot." "No! I cannot seem to function throughout my daily life from the unbelievable exhaustion. Over the years I have tried many different medications to help combat the fatigue. Nothing worked as well as when I was prescribed Dexedrine (which is a form of speed). But after speaking with a new doctor that is managing my meds, he quickly made me swear to never take that prescription again. He compared it to a street drug (even though it was being prescribed to me.

Well, over a month ago I was given the Max GXL to try. I didn't expect much at first, just really anticipated the detox most. But by the grace of God.... I felt myself waking up at a normal hour in the morning and being productive throughout the day. This is something in a good ten years I haven't experienced. I was depressed by this as well. What point was there in life if you cannot even get up long enough to be active in your own life. I began to feel that I was losing a major portion of myself. The fatigue interferred with all areas of my life and even led to me having to .cancel last minute plans or get togethers.

Here it is one month following me taking Max GXL and I cannot believe how much more energy I have! It is so wonderful. I go to sleep at a somewhat normal time and find myself waking up between 6:30 and 7:00 every morning, something that was completely unheard of before. I don't return to bed, I get up and get dressed head to toe, and keep myself active. The only way I can describe how I feel now vs. then is "The Rip Van Winkle Effect". I feel like I have suddenly woke up from a long, long sleep. It feels wonderful!

Thanks to the Max GXL my energy level has gone up at least 200%. I checked with my doctor and he found no drug interactions from it, he said that it would really increase my energy, help me lose weight and help my immune system. My top three items that I wished forever that could be relieved.
