Hi
Yes I agree everyone has to do what works for them. I started taking MCT oil
With my smoothie and it's really helped my brain fog and overall fatigue. It has alot of advantages for brain health and energy. You may want to investigate. You purchase at a health food store. I took an antidepressant when I was 20-24 due to a tragic loss in my life and it did help me get thru. The meds back then were not so difficult to stop as they are now. I wish you peace in your path.

I take Venaflaxine for depression while caregiving my mom. She passed away 2.5 years ago and I tried once to titrate it down and get off it but it didn't work. Recently (last week) prior to being diagnosed with Breast cancer I again wanted to try to get off it, didn't get the chance to even try now that the cancer verdict is in. I'm wondering what will happen during the time they tell me to stop all meds before my surgery and after. I'm 71 years old and have had hot flashes for YEARS. Had a full hysterectomy 30 years ago. That causes surgical menopause as we all might know, so, I put up with it for several years but it seems I still suffer from sweating so much and prefusely; almost embarassing! Thank God I'm retired and don't have to be dressed up sitting in meetings as I use to be. If I miss taking V even one day I feel myself on edge. Not good. Gotta get off it. When my mom passed away I couldn't cry, when I was diagnosed with cancer, I couldn't cry. Guess it works well for keeping you even keel and NOT crying huh?.
