Hey, O
I'll probably be joining you over at this forum in a few weeks. Sitch is crashing and burning on Fast Forward.

Look into The Ultramind Solution by Mark Hymen. His Amino Acid-specific quizzes in there can point exact missing/misfiring neurotransmitters and the appropriate supplements to take. I did the quizzes and followed up w/blood tests and the book was dead-on.

I first started on Lexapro even though I tend to avoid pharmaceuticals; but I needed immediate relief so I was willing to temporarily compromise nutritional principles. But my way of looking at it was I wasn't depressed because my brain was somehow deficient in Lexapro or Cymbalta, or Zoloft. That just makes no sense. So I did some research and found this book.

The Amino Acid supplements have done wonders (and are inexpensive) and Dr. is weaning me off meds.

Speaking of meds - meditation, that is, I assume you practice it. This year I discovered Dr. Jeffrey Thompson, a pioneer in music, imbeding pulses in sound and inducing Alpha, Theta, Delta and a newly-discovered Gamma Brainwaves (40Hz) discovered in Tibetan Monks.

Anyway any one of his CDs - I now own 6 - have taken my meditation to indescribable heights, depths, deep peace and bliss,

Check one or two out, if you're so inclined.

Hang in there.
