"Wim Hof Method" gave me the ability to take back control"

Time: 3.699

Hi, my name's Matt.

Time: 5.1

I'm a songwriter and small business owner from Newton Abbot in Devon

Time: 11.38

I got into contact just to say thank you

Time: 13.84

For everything that's happened in my life over the last few months, I was really sick.

Time: 18.32

I was diagnosed with Lichen Planopilaris, which is an auto-immune disease.

Time: 30.52

They put me on a prescription for Hydroxychloroquine.

Time: 33.88

Which is a quite a strong medication.

Time: 36.88

They normally use the tablets to treat Malaria

Time: 38.76

But what is the side effect of that is they suppress your immune system.

Time: 41.98

The drawback of that obviously, is that you can't control how much you suppress.

Time: 46.62

Within like a week that made me really sick!

Time: 49.12

I was just out of breath, like walking up hills, I was coughing up blood.

Time: 53.86

It wasn't great! And they told me just to *just take it out*? and see if the side effects would go away.

Time: 59.04

I just took it out for about another three weeks, and it didn't go away.

Time: 63.3

And at that point I was pretty fed up so, I just i started to practice the Wim Hof Method

Time: 68.02

Luckily!

Time: 72.54

I had the blood tests done after three months

Time: 76.08

And as far as they're concerned, they think I don't have an auto-immune disease now.

Time: 79.86

I need to go again, just to make sure and double-check.

Time: 83.74

Like, they weren't really sure what i'd done

Time: 86.44

And when I told them, they didn't really seem overly interested

Time: 89.56

But they were surprised.

Time: 91.28

But at the same time, I think it's not something that they can treat with medication.

Time: 95.16

Yeah, they don't see it as a real treatment, even though it's clearly worked for me.

Time: 99

So, maybe they need to like, be more open-minded.

Time: 103.12

I practice the Wim Hof Method every day!

Time: 105.52

I just feel like I've got a lot, more energy and I feel a lot more

Time: 109.4

Relaxed, I don't have the anxiety that I used to.

Time: 112.12

I used to suffer from really bad depression as well and that's ...

Time: 115.08

I don't really experience that anymore.

Time: 120.72

Really, Wim just gave me the ability to take back control and

Time: 124.98

It was a point in my life where I didn't really feel like I had much control

Time: 128.76

Because I was looking at a illness that I didn't really understand a

Time: 132.06

And I was being told by all these

Time: 135.12

All these doctors that I needed to take this medication that was making me really sick.

Time: 138.94

And I just didn't really feel like I had any control

Time: 141.94

At that point in time it wasn't looking good because if i had to take two

Time: 145.46

Between 2 and 3 years off, it wasn't gonna work out.

Time: 148.9

Things are looking really good and I owe that to Wim.

Time: 154.14

I'd recommend the Wim Hof Method because it's really life transforming

Time: 159.76

And it allows you to take back control.

Time: 163.48

And yeah, just live life to the fullest.
