Hi Loops, thanks for responding.... Yes I am taking it for those conditions.... 'soft' BPII co-morbid OCD GAD w/atypical mixed features. My pdoc actually recc. this instead of adding another med which I think is pretty amazing. He must be doing his 'homework' but he initially recc. that I take 600 to 1000 mg per day. My memory, thinking and cognition are terrible and he said to give this along w/a good multi-vitamin as a first try. Why would he only recc. 600-1000 mg per day. On the side of the bottle it says 1tsp-,= to 5ml,which is 1600mg of EPA, DHA & other Omega oils. Any more input that you or anyone else could provide would be great!
BTW I am very TRD and my symptoms very a lot!
Thanks
Snapper
p.s. right now only 300Mg Effexor xr qd and 15mg diazepam hs
Functioning but nothing you would consider as truly enjoying any kind of life!!
Thanks again for any input
Snapper
