Been dealing with depression for years. Been on new meds since December. I am having a really low period and am barely able to function. I want to isolate SO MUCH and I feel hopeless. Calling doctor tomorrow, but just need some relief today. I am a teacher and have to face the world tomorrow and just don't know how I am going to do it....

Sorry found this one too late. Just left this post to let you know I read it. I responded to one of your posts.

Hello, Lorilouise, sorry you're having a bad time of it.

As strange as it may seem, experience has taught me that cutting two lemons and
squeezing them into about 8 oz. of water and drinking it will help relieve some of the
bad feeling tone. The reason for this is that the lemon, while it tastes very acidic, is
actually digested as one of the most alkaline foods we can eat.

Having the ability to make the fluids and tissues less acidic (and many foods, including all medications, leave an acidic residue), the body feeling tone improves with lemon juice. Within 4 hours if you don't feel better, repeat the process. That should do it for you.

That's one immediate relief that might work for you.

It works for me and for others who need it at times.

Take care.
