Sorry you're suffering so much, Tsunamisurfer. My son and I are experimenting with fatty acids from fish. That is we've been eating a lot of fish and also taking fish oils. I don't know how much fish you eat, but it's supposed to help with depression and anxiety.

If you want to try it, look for capsules with omega 3's - EPA and DHA. It's not enough just to take a few fish oil capsules. You have to simultaneously reduce the omega 6's which are extremely prevalent in processed foods - at least here in the U.S.

It's a bit early to tell if it will help my son. We're only a few days into the experiment. I'll let you know if it helps.



Edited to add: One other thing-- I've cancelled my facebook account several times. To reactivate it, all you have to do is log on. The only problem is that every time I do this, someone invariably notices and thinks I'm mad at them and defriended (unfriended?) them.
