I think I made a mistake. :-(

I bought some Garlic in a tube the other day (Monday I think, brain is a bit fuzzy). It had no nasty numbers on it. All the other ingredients looked safe.  Except perhaps the Oil.  I got it. I used it, I used it a lot even, we have used the full tube since I got it. I have used it in soups, sausage rolls, and hummus.
 
And now I think we are reacting. I have been miserable since Tuesday.  I was putting it down to PMS (which I get really badly, and until now I have always blamed hormones for my depression).  This morning I started to wonder if it is actually a reaction.  I was completely paralysed (mentally not physically) in bed this morning, I just could not face the kitchen (which is a tip, but still better than it could be, LOL).  Again I put it down to PMS, until when DH got home and started getting the boys ready for the day, and I could here W (my 4yo) in tears over his boots not being found, he cried for nearly 10 minutes, he has been rational and logical and will cry over something like that and be upset, but this morning was over the top, I also remembered that he spontaneously burst into tears at bed time twice this week, I started thinking...  And the baby has been miserable and had about 10* the normal dirty nappies she would normally have, I thought my not coping with her was a sign of my problems, not that she had problems, but now I am not so sure.
 
So no more Garlic in tubes. :-( I was enjoying its convenience. However I am not enjoying its effects.  We also have frozen soup in the freezer, am guessing that will be for DH now though.
 
What I am most puzzled about is that P doesn't seem to have had any reaction. He was who we started this whole thing for, well he and I anyway.  Guessing we are going to react to different things. SIGH.  Live and learn I guess.
