Morgellons Disease Finally Hits The Mainstream Media
Joni Mitchell is one of the most beloved of folk singers from the 1960’s protest and 70’s hippie era. She endeared many fans to her simple and sincere form of “music with a conscience.” Therefore, it is no surprise that she would somehow be chosen to confer legitimacy to a skin-crawling disease known as Morgellons.
In addition to being known as the Plague of the 21st Century, Morgellons is also known by many other names, each of which misrepresents the true seriousness or causes of the syndrome. Morgellons is in fact a multi-infection syndrome which has a number of different causative factors as well as various pathogenic micro-organisms present.
Because it has never been formally recognized by the American medical establishment as a scientifically-proven disease process, proper diagnosis is rare. Effective treatment regimens are therefore even more unlikely to be formulated by doctors who refuse to acknowledge its existence. That’s where the advocacy of famous people like Joni Mitchell can be of invaluable assistance.
Mitchell has apparently suffered from Morgellons for many years now and displays many of the classic physical symptoms experienced by the vast majority of those who have been likewise afflicted. Her psychological profile, which has become quite well known by the general public, is also very consistent with a full-blown Morgellons syndrome.
Why do Women Disproportionately Suffer from Morgellons?
Joni Mitchell’s public persona reflects the various characteristics and traits which many people, especially women, possess who suffer from this excruciating syndrome. They are typically hypersensitive emotionally and often social empaths. They are often physically “hyper-reactive to the 21st century” and particularly to the proliferation of so many food toxins and water contaminants, airborne pollutants, and chemical surfactants.
Many individuals who have Morgellons also seem to experience a series of dramatic stress events which conspire to overly tax their immune systems. After prolonged periods of being immuno-compromised, they become susceptible to a unique combination of pathogenic agents which we are all exposed to; however, these individuals physically succumb to them. Their immune response is simply not sufficient to ward of the commencement of the disease process.

Joni Mitchell has been a lifelong smoker, which indicates one of her unhealthy ways of dealing with stress. This highly detrimental addiction is one of the main risk factors for many women who have Morgellons. Not only has it compromised her respiratory health over decades, it has predisposed her to an assortment of other admitted health issues and medical conditions.
When all of these are considered in the aggregate, it is very easy to understand how and why the Morgellons disease process is initiated; a hospitable internal environment has been created over a lifetime. There are usually other harmful habits and/or unwholesome lifestyle issues which further contribute to the fostering the right climate for Morgellons to emerge.
Syndromes such as Morgellons all have the same basic etiology. However, each person who suffers from Morgellons may present different symptoms, as well as experience a different timing for the manifestation of those symptoms. This is what confounds so many physicians: No two patients seem to have the same physical and mental, emotional and psychological profiles.
The one thing that most patients do have in common is that they are usually woman. Just like Lupus and Fibromyalgia, Chronic fatigue syndrome and Multiple sclerosis, women are overwhelming targeted. Hence, the prevailing emotional temperament and mental state associated with this disease should not be underestimated. Neither should similar genetic predispositions nor predominating environmental co-factors be ignored.
Conclusion
The medical profession, while no longer male-dominated, is still heavily influenced by powerful groups like the American Medical Association. Their thinking is locked in the past when it was easier to call a hard-to-diagnose patient a hypochondriac. The truth of the matter is that were the doctor to suffer from Morgellons, his colleagues would most likely label him a hypochondriac.
It is also too easy for uninformed doctors to identify their patient’s with Morgellons as “psychosomatic” illness. That thousands of patients have now been documented with a very similar disease profile (actually a syndrome)) cannot honestly be called psychosomatic. Yes, the mind does profoundly affect the body and our health; therefore, cancer and heart disease could also be determined to have significant psychosomatic causative factors.
Perhaps the time has now arrived for the CDC and NIH, the Surgeon General and the healthcare industry to acknowledged Morgellons as the extremely serious syndrome that it is. In that way many patients, both women and men, will be validated and they can begin in earnest their very challenging process of healing.

We do not get sick because of our poor habits, we get sick because our imune systems are weak in fighting certain pathogens. Morgellons disease is caused by pathogens, not smoking or poor stress management. The same is true of most illnesses. Why we choose to blame ourselves and eachother for becoming sick is beyond me. It’s an old, bad habit, likely started in religious circles. It’s as if we still lived in the dark ages!
I agree my dog having trouble swallowing parasites in his throat
It comes from CHEMTRAILS
Chemtrails don’t exist.
You retarded or just gubmint trolling…even one of my 5 year old grandsons says “oh look, someone is painting the sky again.”
You are DEAD wrong!! Haven’t you looked at the sky and seen the vapours that do not disperse like normal contrails? Notice how those trails form cute little ‘X’s, circles and no other kinds of trails that lead to or away from any airports? Has the sky looked blue to you as it did years ago? No, it’s hazy, always. You need to inform yourself before spouting off inane comments, if not to educate yourself, then to only not spread stupid remarks to others who might wish to know what chemtrials are, what they do and why we should not be saying ‘they don’t exist’. Bah! You won’t listen. They got to you.
“…Morgellons is in fact a multi-infection syndrome which has a number of different causative factors as well as various pathogenic micro-organisms present.”
LOL! If there is any doubt, (which there is a LOT of, in the medical field) the above statement is just conjecture. You can’t say “in fact” and then state your opinion. Offer up the data from the studies that established this “fact” or don’t sully your reputation by stating something you can’t back up.
The scientific research on Morgellons has determined a common denominator in Morgellons disease. Borrelia is the pathogen found in all Morgellons study subjects so far and absent in controls. If you have scientific data showing a multi infection syndrome, please produce it.

Can women pass this to the men living with them ? And We According to doctors always shift the blame back to life style .. .. funny how that works that way ..How about living on the southern coast as opposed to the northern interior ? any studies on that ? Do bed bugs have anything to do with it ?..
I do believe that bed bugs can be and probably are a vector for it, as we were given a buggy mattress set from some ‘friends’, which is when most of the symptoms escalated, although many other disease vectors exist as well. What is being discovered is that fungus is the actual stuff these genetically modified organisms feed off and contain in their genetically modified bodies. And yes, it can be contagious, although if you’re living in the conditions that support it, the contagion is more in the environment rather than the people you’re exposed to.
Most researchers, and there’s not many, say it’s NOT contagious. It’s caught by a vector/Biting bug.
So agent orange and aircraft where not around in 72 .. Can you pin point the day they started spraying the skies ? nope didnt think so .
I am the first person here that knows exactly when I caught this and where I was, prudent people would not dismiss the climate of where I was and what was happening when this happened. this disease can be transmitted to others by fluid exchange, it may be able to be transmitted other ways but it would be more than likely quite hard to do.
Thank you again, Natural Society for facing this contentious and complex topic. What we do know is that we know very little and therefore we need to exercise caution and care in responding to one another’s ideas and personal experiences. Consider Morgellons as practice in socialized interaction! I have recently come to realize many of my vast “symptoms” list could be explained under the Morgellons medical model, but because I have recently reversed multiple complex cancers through plant-based medicines, I am far more interested in What Can Be Done To Reverse Morgellons’ Symptoms than what it is and who caused it. This is yet another golden opportunity to Take Personal Responsibility, Quit the Blame Game, and Change What We Can Change First. This universally accepted approach to positively impacting on the many interrelated “immune-brain-psychiatric” group of unidentified disorders and identified diseases is to clean up your act where you need to and the top 3 mega-approaches are always going to be: systematically remove the heavy metals/chemicals/radiation & electrical pollution and replace with as clean an input and environment as possible …..tackle the co-infections (high-dose Vitamin C / liposomal form is #1 method)……reverse your related known disease processes (typically organs “failing”)….focus on self-healthcare both physical/medical and psycho-spiritual because no one out there will do it for you. Lucky for anyone reading this at this time of the century, there has never been more readily available HOW TO information for taking charge of your healing. On this: The Internet As We Know It will soon disappear, so time is of the essence because the websites teaching and facilitating the raw materials we need to access to do the job, is on its way out. In the end, what I have learned is that being forced to deal with these unknown diseases can become the greatest spiritual growth opportunity of one’s life. Facing our personal style of being self-destructive (which, with many of us, is merely failing to recognize our own body’s red flags which would mean we needed to do something about it) becomes the learning structure which saves our own life. Morgellons is but one more mystery illness of the Canaries in the Coal Mine — sensitive people might fall first due to our preexisting genetic vulnerability, lifestyle choices and unknown exposures, etc., but we also have a rare opportunity to pave the way for many others coming down the path. The planet is overwhelmingly contaminated with multiple exposures to all living things, and we have more than enough evidence around us every day to know we need to take charge of the choices we can make.
I am so happy to finally see someone else looking at this as a lesson in self discovery, cleansing, healing, and destressing. The universe is telling us we need to reevaluate and reallign
I had read that Agrabacterium was present in all victims tested. Agrabacterium is used in GMOs. Also: read several times that when the filiments were tested the material the filiments were made of was not present in any FBI database. If this is a gmo caused disease, it explains why media is not reporting about it and no research is being done.
Filaments “found to be made of the body”

Man, everybody’s debatin’ about wether or not morellons disease is viral, neuralogocal, chemtrail based, pollution caused, a GMO side-effect, and or even “supernatural!!!” Hey hey hey. Morgelons disease is one very MEAN, PAINFUL dog to get attacked by! When you find youself being mauled by ANY given “dog”, you won’t CARE what breed the monster is! You won’t care what make or model the thing is! You won’t CARE wether or not it is a Siberian Huskey! The thing might be downright “adorable”, but it sure as hell won’t be too “cute” to YOU! You’ll just want the damn thing DEAD so that it can’t put anyone else through the sheer hell it put YOU through!!! You won’t care wether or not the damn thing had a “pedigree.” Or if your k-9 attacker had recently had it’s fur shampood!!! ( although you might want to get checked for “rabies!!!” ) Pedigree, no pedigree! Dental repairs or NO dental repairs…. WHO CARES when the thing’s TEARING YOU UP!!!!
We need to quit sitting there with our SKIN crawling, biting, burning, and stinging, wondering where morgelons disease comes from or wether or not it is GMO!!! At this point, the statistical information hardly matters!!! Nobody CARES wether or not an attacking dog has had a shampoo! No one CARES wether or not it has had shots for “parvo!” Let’s focus on things that alleviate the PAIN and facilitate HEALING! Nutra Silver is one thing that helps with Morgellon’s. Nature’s Gift Debridding soap is another.
& sulfur soap
True Albert! But when drs are denying it your driven to find answers! Hope you didn’t catch it playing in the junk yard band!
Myself and my dog are dying if this .I give up. DR won’t even look at my skin you can see the parasites under my skin. I have biofilm all coating my skin. I’m so weak. I’ve tried everything. Now I’m done I cry I pray I’ve written, emailed , calked news, CDC, health dept. Now I just want to die. I have no fight left. We spent all money lost our home trying all these remedies insurance won’t cover yet no one will acknowledge I’m even sick. My friends are tired of hearing about it. If you don’t have it you could not even imagine. It is all consuming takes over your life. My hand has looked like something from sci fi movie. I guess I can understand why Dr and others doubt this. Yet it is a nightmare and so lonely for those of us that suffer. My heart feels for you that have Morgellons Disease. I’m not going to make it. I pray an answer is known soon and the public listens for they could be next. Pam
same here, dying from it, slowly, BUT, a powerful stack of magnets, using the south side, the side that pulls the needle to the south, use that side against skin and rub hard, they will come out, they will be slimy and sparkly, then hose them off hard, hose off your whole body hard, suck them out with draw out salve. Kill them repeatedly with the magnet. Wash in cold water as much as possible, use Polysporin and rub it in hard, then hose off hard, this combo of magnet killing and polysporin and other kind soaps is keeping them DOWN in my case, from BURNING all the time and seems to be removing the whole complex. I am cleaning everything always, washing all clothes after one wearing. They love to live in Eczema like white paste all over you, as if it’s skin, get that off the way above. It hurts. It’s work. It’s worth it. Get fine brushes and brush them off you and out of your hair, just keep going to beat their reproductive cycle. Not ALL doctors are against this. I read a Naturopath who was very right on about it.
Thank you could you be more specific what kind magnets and paste. I am so discouraged I was doing things helped yet was costing me 20 a day and so much time I was do desperate I got a shop vac to suck them out it actually did help sounds crazy yet when you can see them . my brain fig is bad so if you could give me detailed instructions it would be appreciated
I was trying anything I read and discovered on my own that an 8oz. selzer or carbonated water with with two caps of pure vanilla extract not only taste good but seemed to clear the brain fog! I’ve also rubbed it on my scalp and skin when especially irritated. Also equal parts raw apple cider vinegar, warm water and raw Honey. Hang in their honey! It’s a pure nightmare I know! I still can’t believe I have something so bizarre. And that drs don’t take more seriously something so debilitating!
If you can, get a dermatoligist to give you a script for ivermectin
Pure vanilla extract & raw honey internally and externally, eucalyptus chest rub all over. Borax, Epson salts & baking powder soaks. Neem oil tea, capsules and essential oil. Coconut oil. Ginger, garlic, onions. Grapefruit seed extract, cloves, wormwood, cinnamon. Pineapples & paypayaseed smoothies!
Raw pumpkin seeds…etc etc. etc.
dryers sheets rubbed on your head for crazy static nights like tonight! And prayers that Doctors will wake the Eff up!
Almost forgot my new fav. Alka Selzer GOLD! Alkalines the body! Helps with herx or “healing crises”
They are deff magnetically charged! It’s so bizzarrr how my hair stands on end. Thank God my husband has witnessed all of my symptoms or I would think I was cracking up. As most drs would have you believe. Finding a good Lyme leterate MD is a good start. Getting a Western block Lyme test. & Bartonella test will lead to treatment that also slowly kills the mysterious symptoms of Morgellions. A link has been found with Lyme & Morgellions so hopefully it will lead to more research & understanding!

My heart goes out to you ❤️ I understand the loneliness and people tired of hearing about it and want to ensure you that it’s not your fault. Often to them it probably feels like you’re complaining and not doing anything about it, but you really have to experience this sort of thing to understand that just because it seems like you’re just saying ‘nothing’s working’ to someone else, it doesn’t mean you haven’t tried almost everything in the book.
Sending you lots of positive vibes, love, and well wishes.
I hope you are able to beat this and live the life you deserve (150% to make up for lost time ^^)!
This is a infection caused by Algae. If you live near a lake or Ocean you can get this when there is a HAB. Hazardous Algae Bloom. Lake Erie had a massive bloom around 5 years ago that may of caused a lot of people to get this. I lived on a Lake and had to go to tge ER because i broke out in hives. They never found anything but a couple days later hundreds of ducks died in my backyard.
The algae is killing Sealions on the coast of California and wildlife all over the world. If anyone is seeing gnats, springtails and other fungus eating insects it is because they eat Algae. It is becoming a major issue with the Otters on the coast of California as well, the Red Algae is eating their fur which will cause them to freeze and die.
I grew my saliva in a petry dish and found it to be a Golden Algae. I imagine most of you who suffer from this will also find Golden Algae or Blue Green Algae.
Good Luck,
Bob Tucker
I believe that! But also undiagnosed Lyme desease leads to growing bacteria in your system. Which leads to an open invite to other bacteria and parasites.
