What am I actually supposed to be doing to get better?

I have the same problem. I cannot take SSRI medication at all. I want to try LDN but I’m worried I’ll end up disappointed because of side effects. My main side effect is bad migraines from SSRI meds. Is anyone taking LDN who also is a migraine sufferer?

I've been on LDN for about 2 months, recently increased dose to my max of 4.5. I've experienced no side effects. I've also had no improvement in symptoms. I'll give this new dose a try, then stop. I understand it's not effective for everyone. I am an occasional migraine sufferer, have had no increase in number or severity of them.

I’ve been told I may have “visual” migraine, or “silent” migraine because I have visual disturbance but not pain.
I have pretty continuous rotating lights in my peripheral vision and blurry vision. I’m not convinced it’s migraine, but I have tried a couple migraine meds that didn’t help.
Anyway, I’m giving LDN a try.

My opinion from the beginning has been to try everything. It’s exhausting and disappointing but it’s all I know to do.
