Ttramone, in hindsight, did you have any other thyroid symptoms at the time? Cold, fatigue? What thyroid supplements did they put you on?

Do you think it was the removal of the gland that helped as much as the supplementation?
Thanks for your thoughts.
Beebop said:So did you notice relief from depression in the time after you had the gland removed but before the supplementation started? Maybe stress hormones played a part if that is the case - but honestly, that sounds like a mystery to me!

Jenn said:A lot of mental issues are lack of B vitamins, which are a by product of proper protein digestion. Supplementing B vitamins,especially niacinamide made the biggest difference for me. Gelatin is anti seratonin, pooping everyday is anti seratonin, getting enough sugar/co2 to the brain helps too.

Myself, I would rather chart pulse and temperatures as that is more accurate. Thyroid panels could look fine like mine do. But I still have the symptoms and I know for sure I am hypothyroid.
Thyroid supplement for depression. Who would have known? And I agree with ttramone that the relief happens fairly quick.

Btw, he wants to take the Meds. so he can get a job, go to school, have a life.

The fact that he's on SSRI's tells me that he's at LEAST 3x more likely to commit suicide than if he were depressed but on no drugs.Haagendazendiane said:My son is taking an ssri for anxiety, panic attacks, depression. His tsh was 1.23. Does this # tell me anything?
