I'm on meds and they are working well but my mom was just diagnosed with stage IV stomach cancer and given 6 months to live. as you can imagine it's been quite stressful and I am becoming very rundown- I've had stomach flu and now a cold that won't end. When I am chronically stressed, I first get physically sick and then depression sets in. Although my meds were working fine before this, I think the physical symptoms are trying to warn me. Does anyone have suggestions on hopw to handle a stress like this. I'm in therapy- that helps. I'm thinking more along the lines of nutritional supplements like fish oil to augment the meds but am open to any and all suggestions. Thanks
