Moderator Emeritus ChessieCat Posted July 19, 2022 Moderator Emeritus Share Posted July 19, 2022 I have also heard that low Vitamin D can cause/contribute to depression. If you think you think you may be deficient in something then I suggest you get a blood test. It is better/easier to treat something if it can be proven and it can also be followed up to see if the treatment is working and the dose might be reduced at a later stage. Please do your own research before trying anything new and only start with a small dose and only make one change at a time.
