Hi ... are you taking it for migraines or depresssion? While I don't like to take any medication I do better when I do! After being on Zoloft for 7 years and doing great until I wasn't. I am now on Lexapro and I have a life again. One day at a time 🥰

Completely agree. In my humble opinion I have yet to find a medication that actually works for my depression and anxiety. So I've switched to organic, easy to use, healthy alternatives. I took up running as a sport and I go for a run three times a week. That has helped decrease my depression and anxiety plus it helped me lose weight and find new and interesting pass times. I've run in a couple races and raised significant money for the causes I was supporting. One was animal rescue, the other cancer research. So that made me feel good, that I actually did something beneficial about causes I cared about. So, I'm a big fan of running personally, but I know how much effort that takes and my knees don't like it so I understand pain being a deterrent. So maybe try things like that. I haven't found any supplements that really help. But that doesn't mean they don't exist.
