Guest guest Report post Posted May 13, 2008 HI, Sorry you're not feeling well! Have you tried st john's wort? Are you breastfeeding? Not sure if it's safe for bf'ing moms. For seasonal allergies my nd told me to get Sabalia- a homeopathic allergy combo remedy- it works great! I got it at Loblaws- are you from Canada? I'm pretty sure homeopathics are safe for bf'ing moms if that';s the case. Have you ever had a hair analysis done? Depression can be linked to nutritional deficiencies as well- I had one done for about $90 through my nd. Do you get enough essential fatty acids? I would suggest grinding fresh organic flaxseed in a coffe grinder and have 1 - 2 tbsp per day- I put it in a bit of orange juice and just gulp it down. Grind only enough for 1 week and keep it in the freezer- this will help prevent breast cancer too! Good luck on your journey to health.
