ColorChallenge - ThursdayGreen - Number one public enemy or wonderful herb?

Good morning dear Steemies, today is green, ThursdayGreen!
The plant you see bellow is in illegal status in Hungary and if it can be found in someone's garden, the owner can get a serious punishment. No, it's not cannabis (That's also illegal, even medical cannabis). This is ragweed (Ambrosia), a beautiful plant that generally grows in such areas, where the soil was moved, like in construction sites or not cultivated arable land. But it can occur anywhere, anyone's garden.
Why is it illegal and forbidden? Because of its pollen, that has an allergene effect for the respiratory system, generally causes "hay fever". One third of Hungary's population is allergic with ragweed !

I was also allergic, very-very seriously and it lasted for 10 years! Every August and September, i had a running nose, itchy eyes, asthmatic choking. I remember when I got into the allergic examination after half a day staying in the waiting-room, the doctor quickly made the allergy test and automatically prescribed Zyrtec. She said i have to take this medicine for my lifetime, because allergy is uncurable.

I was so desperate, so the symptoms got much stronger. My eyes were particularly bad, burning and terribly itching. Otherwise, I didn't want to take the medication with serious side effects. I turned to alternative medicine like homeopathy and bioresonance, with little success. I remember the symptoms appeared after August 20, and they lasted until the end of September or mid-October. I was already terrified when bloom was far away yet. That time i worked at a big excavation area as an assistant in Gorsium, surrounded with ragweed.

Dependency, fear, and anger characterized me at the time, i was unpatient and i had outbursts of anger when something failed. In that case I crashed anything, especially plates and glasses. I could not accept my situation and hated myself. Of course, i blamed other people and things like ragweed. I ate haphazard, very unhealthy junk food like Maggi and Knorr instant soups, Chio chips, other preserved food and Milka chocolate - one bar per day! I was a taste-dependent, because these food were full of sodium-glutamate which is a flavor enhancer that mislead the senses and damage nervous system. Well, what a vicious circle!

My bioresonance doctor suggested me letting out any such food, and eating fresh veggies. Any sweets and sweet fruits were also forbidden, lemon was the only permitted. I've been temporarily improving, but next year I was allergic again!

At that time I met people who said that the whole syndrome was of a spiritual origin. It was in 2010, and i began to work on myself. My first task was to stop hating ragweed, and begin to love it. They recommended to eat it before blooming. That was very bitter, but sugar was forbidden. I went to clean places and took ragweed. A part of them was dried to make herbal tea in the winter. I gradually let go of my fears and anger and forgave many people. It wasn't an easy way, but it was worth it.
