> This is excellent news. Are you almost completely symptom-free at the moment?
I am completely free of depression. However, I can still tell that I am rapid cycling just below the surface. I know this because right on schedule when I would have been in a depressive phase, my muscles ache and my thoughts are not as clear as they should be. These are symptoms that always occurred with depression. So it is like being in one of my depressive phases without the depression.
I score my mood daily, and it has always been interesting to watch the same mood cycle occur over and over. And, to be able to predict what mood I'll be in for future dates. But, now I don't have to get out the calendar to see if I will be depressed during an up coming social event or professional appointment. I'm never depressed. We'll see if it lasts. My gut tells me it will.
> One thing which interests me is if/whether (and how) you are able to identify the individual effects of the various supplements?First there needs to be some reseach that shows benefit for the vitamin/supplement. If so, then I add them one at a time and note the degree of improvement (if any). Some vitamins I can't "feel" an improvement persa, but I choose to take them anyway if there are sufficient data that show a benefit for the vitamin/supplement.
> On the other hand, perhaps they only work for you in combination.
Interesting that you say that. It's not just me, but Fish oil and phosphatidylserene (PS) work even better when they are taken together.
Ed, for one month take 300 mg/day of PS and a minimum of 9.6 g/day of liquid fish oil (no capsules). I'm betting that you will notice a benefit early-on. These will even help healthy people like yourself.
