I stopped using Depo Provera for birth control and after better than 3 years of having no periods at all, I am now on 20 days straight of menstrual bleeding. Can anyone advise me of an herbal or homeopathic remedy to get the bleeding to stop?

I have been sick for weeks now. I work at a daycare and it seems that if the children have it, i get it. I have been working with children (in the same daycare) for about three years now.
I have recently seen a doctor, who put me on an anti-biotic suggesting that I had a sinus infection. The antibiotic did help. However, it has not even been a week since I got over the infection and I now have a stomach bug.
I am 19 years old and should have a strong immune system. I try to eat as healthy as I can (exercise however, is hard to fit in) I frequently wash my hands, and I visit the doctor regularly.
Even as a child I would always catch whatever was going around, and it seemed like it always hit me harder than anyone else.

I would like to know if anybody has suggestions as to what I can do year-round to boost my immune system. (Vitamins, etc...)

I sometimes find that certain foods or drinks can make me not just have a jumpy tummy, but feel nauseous too and would like to know of some more natural rather than medical options.

I have great trouble sleeping at night due to depression, bad nerves, and maybe something else.

Antipsychotic meds get me to sleep well, but I had major problems when I get off of them, so I want a natural product that I won't get hooked on, have withdrawal symptoms from, and receive maximum results from.

Also, I would prefer to hear from people with personal experience of sleeping problems, and the more severe the better, since mine's pretty severe.

Thanks for any and all help!
