- phren0logy 8y agoYes, I agree. Depending on the person and the circumstances, there are always options.
- tcj_phx 8y ago"Stress" experienced by people who are traumatized (fresh trauma or PTSD) has effects on the physical body. There are some good prescriptions that can help with the biological effects of stress: MAOI's [0], various supplements, etc. Sometimes "depressed" patients really just need thyroid medications. MAOIs are good for getting people out of bed while their team figures out what other sorts of interventions they'd benefit from: [...] New research into MAOIs indicates that much of the concern over their supposed dangerous dietary side effects stems from misconceptions and misinformation, and that it is still underutilized despite demonstrated efficacy.[4] New research also questions the validity of the perceived severity of dietary reactions, which has been based on outdated research.

B-vitamins can boost the metabolism. There's a prescription version of Methyl-Folate that's approved as an add-on for depression treatment (imho, this vitamin should really be a primary treatment). There's lots of space for the medical perspective on a treatment team.
