Suggest Treatment For Severe Depression And Anxiety
Vitamins/Supplements Hello. Im a 24 year old female with two children. I have been experiencing some health issues for some time now and would like to know what extra vitamins or supplements I need to help. I have severe depression & anxiety which I am prescribed Paxil for. I sometimes still experience the symptoms but not too severe. I have a very difficult time focusing, have a hard time reading, very forgetful and have a hard time paying attention. Also, I have a very weak immune system. I seem to catch every cold/sickness possible and it always takes me a long time to get over it. I am also very tired all of the time. all of this has been going on for years but just seems to be getting worse and I would like to know if there is any vitamins/supplements I can take to help. I do take women's one-a-day and its not helping. thanks.
I think, you can take L-methyfolate and carnitine viatmin supplement. That would help you to give more benefit form the antidepressant. This would improvement the effect of antidepressant and help to decrease depressive and anxiety symptoms.
Thanks
