On the EDGE of Recovery

Since injuries forced me to quit Professional Wrestling in 2001, I have struggled with depression and anxiety. However, 2008 has been extraordinarily difficult for me. My father was very sick starting late ’07 and he passed away in March ’08. An unnerving legal battle also ensued.
The stress of the loss of my Dad and the ongoing issues had me fall into a rut like never before. I had no energy or motivation whatsoever. None. I let my advertising business crumble and had to think hard to find a reason to get out of bed in the morning. Sad or grumpy all the time, I found it difficult to see friends as I didn’t want to bring them down.
My days consisted of dragging myself out of bed, drinking a ridiculous amount of diet cola for my caffeine buzz and killing time. The rare times I had the desire to do things, I couldn’t concentrate and I would screw up; which made it more depressing! My brain was a mess!
I drank so much of that pop I am embarrassed to say how much. To give a hint though, I started my day with a two liter bottle in the morning. I have tremors in my left hand, likely due to overdoing the caffeine for years. The diet pop gave me a jolt but it sure did nothing to help my situation.
My Doctor gave me pills, which helped a bit. I finally got my butt moving and started exercising again, which helped a bit more. I was doing better but I needed something to get me over the edge and back into a proper mindset. Then my friend (Steven Hanks) gave me three days worth of Edge by Xooma. All he said was “it’s an energy think drink, give it a try”
I noticed something different from my first try. After three days I was sure this stuff was doing good things for my brain. Consistent mood, happier, thinking clearly, motivation to get out and do things; it felt like my mindset had taken a much needed turn- with a little help. I quickly got on the phone, joined Xooma and made sure I had enough Edge to get me through until I got my first shipment.
I have been on Edge for two weeks now and have cut my pop consumption in half already. I plan to be pop free in the New Year.
I just started the X2O. After a decade in the wrestling ring, 1,100 pro matches and years of drinking gallons of acidic pop, my body is in rough shape- inside and out. If X2O helps my body the way Edge did wonders for my brain, LOOK OUT!!
I am absolutely sold on the Edge product and look forward to hearing “Hey, what’s in your bottle?”
Thanks.
