Hello College Girl- I think it works (fish oil, that is). I have taken about the amount px'd by your doc for a year now. I was slightly cyclothemic (with some times of slight manic symptoms) and the fish oil levels me...and a good way! So good luck to you...if you trust him, you might give it a try. Besides, I haven't found any data to suggest that there's a down side.

Hello all-
> I'm a 21 year old college student about to enter her senior year. I've been dealing with depression on and off since I was 10 years old- just didn't know how to put a label on it. Today is my third day on Lexapro. I've been reading previous posts from the past and they have helped tremendously in dealing with side effects. However, my doctor also wants me to take fish oil, 1000 mg 4x a day. Has anyone had any experience with this? Is it worth it to take these fish oil pills 4x a day? And thanks to all for all the benefits I've taken from this board.
