For my depression since & had horrible side effect reactions to the normal AD meds & any other kinds my pdoc tried.....he finally suggested doing the fish oil with the Omega 3 (EPA....not DHA). The intake has to be over 1200mg of the EPA a day for it to work. What I found was that all the other Omega 3's that end up being a part of the fish oil helped with blood pressure, memory, & my energy.....so I got more than I bargained for with taking the Omega 3 EPA. I found a lemon flavored bottled oil that I mix in with a glass of OJ in the morning......which is healthy also.

It's amazing how much it helps.....can really see a difference when I don't take it.....& when I'm not sleeping, blood pressure goes sky high.....getting back onto it now because I haven't been able to sleep, my Dr did prescribe Tamazapam.....but am also trying a natural sleep aid before willing to take the med for fear of how I will react to it.
