Answer 2

I've been on anti-depressants on and off for decades, none of them provided more relief than they did side effects until I started taking St. John's wort, an over-the -counter supplement.

The effects were immediate and dramatic. I wonder if years of SSRIs might have repairing my brain* but needed an additional "kick start".

I've made some dietary changes and started taking Omega 3 fish oil. This promotes brain function and has all sorts of healthy side effects. I also suffered from a sleep disorder and am taking melatonin, the body does the majority of repairs to the body while sleeping.

I'm paying a fraction of what I would have been paying (works out to be about the same as a co-pay), I'm getting better results, I don't have to pay to see a shrink for prescriptions, and I never have problems getting them, they are available in any drug store, health store, and even many department stores.
