Thanks Sadee, it sounds like you’ve been through a similar tough road and I’m happy to hear you’re finding your way through.

I’m at the backend of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation treatment, which is extremely effective for depression. I’ve had spots where I really felt a difference, but the “fog” has never lifted. After monkeying around with my medication a bit, the doctor just tapered me off quickly, so I could go through withdrawals while still being under treatment. I’m a few days off the drug, not a fun place to be but trying to keep the end goal in sight.

I do take a B Vitamin and Fish Oil regularly. Have to hope the TMS works, but if it doesn’t I may consider an inegrative medicine doctor. Unfortunately my body is sensitive to medications and supplements, so working with a doctor would probably be a better option for me than winging it on my own. Just a tough spend of momey when my disability will run out soon and money will be tight for my family.
