Are there any supplements you know of that help depression? [I Am Just Being Myself]

@SW-User Best of luck. Everyone should be taking Vitamin D; sunlight is a poor source because it damages your skin and (depending on location) is less plentiful in the winter.

@BlueVeins Many people have vitD deficient and are not aware of it!

@BlueVeins Yes I forgot vit D. So important.

@SW-User b complex is best

@SpoiledRottenPassengerPrincess I take that at the moment

@SW-User I have taken both.. in my experience Vit B 12 is best alone...

@MarineBob yeah have fun

@MarineBob I miss fishing with my dad. Now I sometimes go with my brother and it feels good.

@zeeva70 a tad short for dinner, we going for crappie.... Walleye plays hell on a 16' crappie rod....tore his mouth so I'll turn it over to the state

@SW-User My friend.. you should be a happy camper. Laugh hard and laugh often. Remember ever how low you feel or go..it did NOT come to stay, it came to pass. And also.. nothing and I do mean NOTHING can keep a good person down.

@Watching thanks

@SW-User be patient with supplements because someone can take time to work (even weeks) before feeling better. However, getting outside, moving your body or laugher often has quicker results.

@SW-User pray? VitB 12 in large doses?

@Watching I pray everyday

@SW-User then just repeat.. Vit B 12 sublingual and exercise... Run? Make yourself plans/goals and stick to implementing them! It works.. sometimes only time helps.

@CrazyMusicLover thanks

@Bonnie thanks

@SW-User ysw

@Pinkstarburst I worry about side effects with meds ..just trying to find alternatives to meds that I haven't tried before .don't want to leave any stone left unturned

@SW-User I understand. It’s frustrating finding the right combination and it adds to the feeling of hopelessness. I journal everyday to get the thoughts...some things I share here. It helps me and I always hope someone struggle reads it doesn’t feel alone in their thoughts. Mindfulness helps me too. Walks, mood-neutral music. There is an app called Calm that I recommend. The vitamins people have recommended are helpful too.
Another thing to consider is trying to increase light exposure. Get out in the sun or buy a light therapy lamp (I have two of them)

@SW-User ashwaganda is fab

@SW-User I heard good things about it ..may try it ..will read up on it more

@SW-User Yeah please read up in detail. It has benefits that go on and on but it may not be suitable for everyone.
