I started by going to a homeopathic dr because I no longer trust western meds or drs unless I need surgery. My homeopathic dr checked my labs & determined that I had vitamin deficiencies. She prescribed supplements and creams based on labs. I was deficient in iron, b vitamins, hormones were off, hypothyroid. I ate a diet of no sugar, gluten or diary for 1 month along with supplements. After the month of diet, I started weening my meds and added a natural serotonin stimulator. It took me 3 months to ween. I feel great now!!! Mind you I had to be hospitalized in the past d/t anxiety, depression and insomnia. The meds were not working for me anymore and had added side effects. I will never use antidepressants again. I’m free!!!! As far as what you should take, check with a homeopathic dr. They do certain labs that regular drs don’t do.
