Yeah, a dose of about 500mg of EPA and 500mg of DHA would be a good place to start.
Most products contain both EPA and DHA. EPA might have a slightly more antidepressant effect, whereas DHA is perhaps more stabilizing.
Many products contain slightly more EPA (EPA:DHA = 3:2).
However, something around 500mg + 500mg (EPA + DHA) of each would be a good place to start. It doesn't matter if you get a bit more of one or the other.
If you tolerate it well, you could easily triple this.
It mixes well with many psychiatric medications. It does have a slight blood thinning effect, so just watch your intake of other blood thinners like aspirin.
I find it very good at helping slow cycling, racing thoughts and anhedonia.
