How to wean yourself off of anti-depressants safely!! Discontinuing an antidepressant usually involves reducing your dose in increments, allowing two to six weeks or longer between dose reductions. Your clinician can instruct you in tapering your dose and prescribe the appropriate dosage pills. Your tapering schedule will depend on which antidepressant you’re taking, how long you’ve been taking it, your current dose, and any symptoms you had during previous medication changes. depending on how you respond to each dose reduction, you may want to taper more gradually using smaller dose reductions, longer intervals between dose reductions, or both. If you experience discontinuation symptoms after a particular dose reduction, you may want to add back half the dose — or all of it — and continue from there with smaller dose reductions.

How to wean yourself off of anti-depressants safely…continued.

How do fish oils benefit my depression? Fish oil is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which play an important role in brain function. People with depression may have low blood levels of brain chemicals called eicosapentaenoic (i-koe-suh-pen-tuh-e-NO-ik) acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (doe-koe-suh-hek-suh-e-NO-ik) acid (DHA). EPA and DHA can be found in fish oil.

How can I get Omega 3 Fatty acids if I hate fish! Oils: Flaxseed oil, Walnut oil, soybean oil, Mustard oil Nuts: English walnuts, Black walnuts, pecans Seeds: poppy, pumpkin and sesame seeds Soy: Tofu and fortified soy milk
