A community effort is best anyway.

I imagine we will have more responses/options shared here in time.

I will work at recalling some additional information, as well.

Eva, I hope you and your doctor may see this as a viable options here.

Diandra, So glad for you! Thanks for reporting you have found SAM-e helpful in the past. (I need reminders, too. I also need hints, or a stimulus, in order to trigger memories of information.)

Jo*Mar, Yes! Thanks for reminding us of stickies! We can add info. We can find info already there!

Kiwi, Thanks so much for sharing your own experiences of approaches you have found helpful. Very helpful information.

To Our Healing,
DejaVu
this you share valuable
in so many was
most importantly
it was your personal
experience strength and hope
for all that
thank you
love
me

Heart You Bring Me Joy, Eva!

Hi Eva,

Thank you!
You continue to touch my heart!

I think of you and your loved ones daily.
I have a great deal of hope for you and your family.

One of the certainties in life: Nothing always remains the same.
Circumstances, perspectives, insights, people and options often shift.


With Gratitude,
DejaVu

For me, getting my thyroid supported after 10 long years of clinical depression from 1991 to 2002 and then getting Vit D3 tank filled up, got me out of a Long Depression.

A few years ago a friend visited a Psychiatrist who specializes in Depression naturally, gave out this printed sheet which the patient would take to the Pharmacy next door.

Vitamin B6 100 mg. one per day (in the form of P-5-P) (take now)

5-HTP 50 mg. one – twice per day. (have taken off and on)

Folapro 800 mcg. (5-methlytetrahydrofolate) one – twice per day. (take now)

Magnesium Glycinate one capsule twice daily. (take now, but more)

B12 Methylcobalamin 5000 mcg. sublingual per day (take 1-2Kmcg daily)

NutraSea Omega-3 Fish Oil. (take now, different brand)

NAC N-Acetyl-cysteine 500 mg. two capsules twice per day. (don't take)

I take all the above for different reasons, and for me SamE never worked, low dose and higher dosing. Adjust accordingly for one's needs.

I had sent this link to a friend who has dealt with a lowness for as long as I've known her. She uses most of the above supps but hasn't used a lot of magnesium and dealing too with afib now....and there is that connection with heart and magnesium.

This link talks about the Best forms of magnesium to use for depression.

http://www.wikihow.com/Treat-Your-De...With-Magnesium

I think this is all good info to know.

Default 10 Things to do to Beat Depression

I have just read this article and would like to share it.

Often, we must take a multi-factorial approach to overcoming any condition.
A multi-factorial approach may also help with depression.

Enjoy the article!

With Hope,
DejaVu

All good info, DejaVu, what jumped out was the 2000mg DHA, I get 500mg daily in my Max DHA omega 3 supp and that was a higher dose of DHA... Dr. Perlmutter's book has going on 4000 reviews on amazon. Great book. I'm not depressed as I've worked on that one since 1991 and it was thyroid not diagnosed for 10 yrs.
