""...In this valuable book, we learn what it is like to be psychotic for so many years... We learn that it is possible to be psychotic from drinking caffeine, and we learn... But we learn even more because Miss Whalen has become the world's expert on caffeine toxicity and has referenced an enormous number of publications from the medical literature to support her claims..."

"Embarking
on a research effort, she discovered that her symptoms were similar to
classic symptoms of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, and yet she had
a hard time convincing doctors and psychiatrists that their treatments
weren't helping her; they only made her worse and forced her into a psychiatric
ward for awhile... "Welcome to the Dance" is Whalen's harrowing story of
struggling with a confusing set of physical and psychiatric symptoms and
waking up and learning to deal with the situation...The caffeine anaphylaxis
that Whalen underwent was like being chronically drugged on amphetamines,
altering perceptions, thoughts and actions. If you think you may have a
caffeine allergy, you'd be well advised to investigate the literature on
the subject, and Whalen provides extensive listings." Ruth Parnell, contributing
editor, Nexus New Times magazine (a leading information source of suppressed
information, including suppressed medical news). Volume 12, No. 5, p73.

May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields, and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand. Irish
