| I have been on a chemical anti depressant (CiLift) for six months. I
quit taking the stuff overnight about two days ago (a very "unwise"
move according to the medicals). I am supposed to "wean" myself from
it over a period. But to be quite frank, having dropped the drug
"overnight" made me feel more positive, because I dread toxicating my
body a day longer with this stuff. I have been studying tissue salts
and now use a combination of that for depression and I am pleased to
have rather positive results sofar. I expected to drop into a
"suicidal dip" from having stopped my chemical drug overnight, but
sofar, I haven't gone there. I also don't plan on going into a
depression, so I have been very positive about myself sofar. My
dominant dosha is Vata-Pitta and I am following nutritional guidelines
for that, as well as me being a blood type O, I am following that as
well. I am going for remedial yoga therapy, that also helps to balance
me.
If anyone has any practical advice or experience in treating
depression with natural nutrients/diets/elements.. please let me know.
I don't know what to expect over the next few days or weeks, but I am
very determined NOT to touch the chemical drug any longer. It is
history now, so I need to look ahead and come up with new solutions..
maybe I just need encouragement...
