My husband, also a hog farmer (and hog farmer's son) wants me to ask you if your father's operation was a finishing operation in close confinement. Overcrowding is the key. It's well documented that too many animals in too small a space results in behavior worsening.
I'm an e.m.power guinea pig, by the way, in the fourth week - so far, so good. I was maxed out on antidepressants (have tried 9 different drugs over the past 9 years or so; at the beginning of February was on 140mg Prozac & 450mg Wellbutrin, along with prempro & synthroid, daily). Was beginning to have tremors and couldn't remember past the start of a sentence. And other bad stuff.
I'll tell ya, just the thought of being able to get myself back has greatly improved things!
(As you may guess, my psychiatrist was not excited about my plan, but neither would she take a look at the information, either. I figure I don't have much to lose - at 51 I'd like to have a life again.)
While I have no idea if this will actually work, keep in mind that some of the most important discoveries have been very simple ones.
