Dale Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Just wanted to know if anybody has had success with vitamin world omega3. I got one locally. I also have a health store in town that sells NOW products and natures plus stuff among others. I've been on 100 mg of Zoloft for 8 years since 05. I started on 50 mg and the doctor bumped me up cause it wasn't working I guess. Six months into taking it I asked if I could get off. He said to wait a year then try. So, after a year I tapered in 25 mg increments and took 12.5 for my final taper dose, and really was doing fine until I finished. I got dizzy bad and got sad and the doctor said I had a relapse and to get back on it. So not knowing to gradually get back on I took 100 mg. That sent me for a weird loop. I almost lost complete hope but finally stabled out. I guess that's my short version of my story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Emeritus Jemima Posted April 28, 2013 Moderator Emeritus Share Posted April 28, 2013 Here's what you need to know about fish oil: Omega 3 Fatty Acids (Fish Oil) It's the amount of EPA and DHA in the fish oil that's important, not the particular brand. That said, I use NOW Ultra Omega-3 which contains 500 mg. EPA and 250 mg. DHA per capsule and take three a day. I didn't see results right away, but over the long haul I think it's been a good idea. Another supplement which seems to help a lot of people is magnesium. In this case, it's wise to start with a small dose and work your way up since too much magnesium can cause diarrhea Magnesium - Nature's Calcium Channel Blocker Psychotropic drug history: Pristiq 50 mg.
