Art Lawler
Eld Harris used to wonder why den-
tists killed themselves more fre-
quently than people of other
professions.
He’s beginning to understand now.
Dr. Eld, a dentist, had felt himself
unraveling from the inside out for a
couple of years.
The depression didn’t make sense,
though, Here was a man who seemed
to have it all—an attractive wife, Jill.
A two-year-old child, Elvan, who had
the same curly hair he did, even it the
color was the blond of his mother's
hair instead of the brown of his own.
Eld had a promising career, too,
and a past of impressive
accomplishments.
He had excelled in school. In fact, if
anything, Ed is over-educated. Sand-
wiched between a B.A. and four years
of dental school was a year and a half
of work on a MBA.
He's still only 33, but he's already
put five years into building his dental
practice. And he's spent at least two
years suffering alternately from anx-
iety and lethargy.
Jill blamed herself at first but had
no idea what she might be doing
wrong. Neither did Ed.
"At times I just wanted to run out
the back door," he says. "I didn't
know why I just felt hyper and
anxious."
Eld took himself to a shrink, expec-
ting the worst But Eld’s mental
health was fine
He suffered from painful
headaches and severe stomach
cramps Maybe an ulcer was the
problem
Those tests proved negative, too So
Ed took some allergy tests
Guess what :’
Eld is allergic to chemicals that are
used to make dentures. He is allergic
to a lot of things, it turns out His
system won't tolerate chemicals used
for making impression materials for
crowns, either
When the testing was complete, Ed
discovered he was allergic to beef,
pork, onions, com, bakers and
brewers yeast and sugar
That ended the depression
mystery It also ended his career as a
dentist
Oh, he could have stayed for a few
more years and risked permanent
disability. Whether chemicals play a
major part in most dentists' suicides
or not, was of little concern to Jill.
Her husband’s health was, and she
began encouraging him to sell his
practice
Ed had to think about it for a while.
A good portion of his life had been in-
vested in dentistry—not to mention
money for education and equipment.
Besides that, there were his pa-
tients. "I love those people," he says.
They were like a family to me."
At times he had to ask himself what
was worse, being depressed by
chemicals, or being jlepressed over
having to give up a profession he
cared so much about?
"I was just shocked," he ays. "I
couldn't believe this was happening
to me. 1 hadn't even paid off my
education loans I came here for a
long-term practice I have a two-
year-old boy (Evanl and we have
another child on the way "
Without his health and unity Ed
wouldn't have much of a life, though
His wife would have less of a hus-
band, and his son might not have
much of a father
TV decision was obvious, if pain-
ful, from the beginning
•'I’ve accepted it.” he ays now
"Once I made the decision I've tned
not to look back
“We feel like something positive
will come from this Apparently den-
tistry wasn't meant to be for me."
Ed has sold his practice and hired a
professional guidance counselor in
Dallas to steer him into another
career He's got a couple of ideas of
his own. too
“I’d like to be the governor of
Texas," he ays. "And I'd like to play
the fiddle on the Grand Ole Opry"
It makes sense If Eld is ever con-
vincing enough to talk the electorate
into giving him a four-year term, he
might eventually be good enough to
work himself up to an appearance on
the Grand Ole Opry
It's something to
with, anyway
fiddle around

Another Alternative For Your Relationship
If you know another option insteadof divorce, boredom,
or depression in your relationship, would you take it?
Many couples are looking for a positive, relatively happy
relationship with another person. In our age of drugs,
unrest, financial pressure and parenting problems is this
ITOssible?
Yes, by looking for what I call "The Third Alternative."
You can choose peace instead of conflict. You can
choose love instead of badgering demands. "How can I
do this?" you ask. This can be accomplished by changing
your attitude and your "Stinkin Thinkin" as Zig Ziglgler
would say. Need help or a few ideas? Contact Dr. Lloyd
Howell fpr more information.
