oh, hey, I was watching a video Food Matters, and a professor talked about Bill W who founded AA. He said back in the 60s that he met a doctor who suggested using niacin for his depression. He said that it totally helped him and that it also helped with the alcoholism. He also gave it to many friends who were in AA and it also helped them. He tried to get AA to use vitamin therapy (niacin is B3) but they refused.
perhaps when exH is in a good mood, you could ask him if he'd ever thought about taking niacin.
the recommended dosage that was given to Bill W was 3000mg a day.
I believe and have researched a lot about this, that most problems, whether they be behavioral/mental/physical are derived from a deficiency in the body. It is mostly genetic, but when the body is lacking, depending on your genetics, you can have a predisposition to certain problems, like depression.
just a thought.
