Hi everyone. I've been depressed for two years, beginning in my second trimester. I've been able to remain drug free primarily because I have a fabulous support system here. Without it, I may have ended up institutionalized. It has been very bad at times.
I've been working with a doctor to determine if there is a biochemical cause of the depression -- some sort of deficiency in vitamins/minerals or toxic levels of metals. I had a test of my amino acid levels and started on a custom supplement and am a new person. Words cannot describe the change in me. It is dramatic, extremely dramatic. Here's the thread from Health and Healing:
