Re: Herbal Remedies - need help getting off chemicalantidepresants and onto herbal

ErinYou can't take St. Johns Wort along with any Psy. meds it will haveserious effects, some have come close to death from the mix, it is notbecause of the St. Johns Wort but the meds.As for 2 weeks, if she didthat she may be in the hospital. It can take as long as 6-8 weeks tocome off med dependency. Research will benefit in the long run on thismatter.To the poster of this comment.I speak from 13 years experience on this matter so please learn fromthis.I was on as many as 12 different meds at once for what I was told wasbi-polar. I am now drug free and have never had a problem and am inbetter health for it.Talk to your doctor and MAKE him understand YOUR choice for YOUR body.doctors believe they control your body, and psy doctors are the worstabout this, they think they make the choice over YOUR body. YOU own,control and live in the body not them, so DO NOT ask him to help you dothis, TELL him to help you.You need to do this one med at a time two at most, have him give you thedosing level for each week to drop off the meds. every week you will godown more. after each med is down start the next. Many will tell you dodo all at once and in two weeks, if you present this to your doctor hewill refuse to help you and not take you seriously, you have to presenta sound solid reasonable choice in this matter, not a cold turkey killit now method as suggested.As you come off the meds you will feel bad, I suggest drinking lots oflemon water w/o sugar and taking panther piss every day twice a day.Today right now go out and buy fish oil, organic would be best but ifyou can't afford it get any. take no less then 6,000mg a day every day,you can split it up to three doses. fish oil acts as a mood stabilizer(please Google it) it has a similar effect as Prozac w/o the sideeffects.Vit B6 is perhaps natures anti-depressant. it is great for all mooddisorders. take no more then 50mg a day more and you will cause nervedamage in hands and feet.B12 has a similar effect as B6 the combo will not hurt but help.Add a Bcomplex to the mixC is important I take 6,000mg a day.to get your memory back ginko baloba,You can start all of the above right now and it will not hurt.St. Johns Wort is not good for everyone and may not work.Please be slow and careful in doing this. you can do it, but you havegot to present this in a sound matter or no one will take you seriously,a two week crash will lead you in the funny room at the hospital.I know first hand I did it.PoneyboyOn Wed, 2005-11-23 at 14:56 -0800, Erin wrote:> It shouldnt' take that long for anti depressants to> leave the system. 2 weeks time or less for many of> them.
