> I started taking fish oil about two months ago; however, I was not taking enough to get 1000 mg. EPA until the last month. I think that it began to have a beneficial effect after a month. I'm doing other things, too, such as T3 and T4 supplementation, and TMS. In preparing for the TMS, I was asked to fill out the Beck Depression Inventory several times in November and December. Initially, I was in the "severe depression" category, but by the time I began the TMS in January, I was on the border of "moderate-mild" depression. The improvement had to have been either the regular ups and downs of life, the T3-4 supplementation, or the fish oil. Who knows? I do knows, however, that I am going to continue with the fish oil and thyroid meds as long as I live!

Basically, my wonderfully successful treatment of an eight year depression came right from the posts on the board! (with follow-up research of course!) I can never express how grateful I am to have found PB and the intelligent and highly informed folks here. Even though I feel really well now, I want to keep checking in to see what's happening!
