Vitamins available cheap at walmart or target. As far as prescriptions go, certainly if a drug isn't working for you, try another. There are a ton of them out there. If you dr isn't helpful, fire him/her! Run, don't walk, find another one! There are a tons of doctors out there!
Also, get to the root of the problem. What's bothering you? Find solutions to the stresses in your life, make a plan and take action. Meditation and exercise also help your mood. Meditation will help you find what's bothering you. Natural mood elevating chemicals are released when you EXERCISE. If you don't like exercising, like most, just give it a try, it's the first step that's hard, take one step on the treadmill or a walk outside and the second step is much easier.
Hang in there! There are many options available to you, find them and try them!
After being on drugs for 14 yrs, I'm going natural. I'm sick of the side effects of the drugs, they have become too bad and out weight any good any of the drugs may have given me.
