    Hi guys, I used to have super severe anxiety and depression until about a year and a half ago when I got on a trycyclic antidepressant…. I’m dead tired all the time and some of my anxiety is coming back and I know the reason I had anxiety and depression in the first place was due to adrenal fatigue. My question is, can I heal my adrenals if I’m still taking my current antidepressant? I want to heal my adrenals and eventually get off but I don’t want to go through all the anxiety and depression again, so just curious and I can assess adrenal fatigue while still taking my current antidepressant …. thanks

    When I’ve learned through 10 gruelling years of this is that none of us truly know what our individual bodies are capable of and neither does the medical profession 100 percent because it’s always evolving and all of us are so different and unique we do not know how our bodies our glands and endocrine system are going to bounce back the only unfortunate thing that we can do is experiment and try and that is honestly all that you can do is to try it and see how much you can tolerate and hope for the best

    I know it sounds like a depressing answer but nothing is easy
    Going off and saying Zaidi an antidepressant medications can be difficult but if you win really slow and I found honestly that a little bit of children’s chewable Benadryl helps me just a little bit it takes the edge off and I try to only use it when needed so I don’t become tolerant to it and also high doses of magnesium I use and I am not a doctor so I’m not prescribing and you may have to experiment with some other natural things out there but you have to go slow and try them one at a time and see what works with your body chemistry but unfortunately it’s not an exact science so you have to be patient and you have to be determined

    And sometimes you may just need to switch antidepressants and try something new
    Best of luck to you

    Antidepressants only mask symptoms. Dr. Caroline Leaf is a Neuroscientist and has studied the brain for several years. I heard her speak and she simply put it. “Antidepressants don’t work.” And she went on in detail why. I can vouch because I’ve been there. They help for a short while then they fail. When I asked my doctor will this fix me. All he said. was, “It wont fix it but it will help you deal with the problem.” Some doctor.

    I got results from a Chiropractor who is into Health and wellness. You may want to consider looking for the same in your area. Based on my experience, I highly recommend it. They do pretty much the same as Adrenal Solution. They are all on the same page.

    I totally agree with you but unfortunately some people do you need something to cope that’s the whole point something to cope in the moment because he can be A matter of someone losing their mind at that moment and literally flipping out but some people don’t relate to that because they’ve never felt those feelings and so it’s easy for them to say that you can do it with something else or you should do this or that but unfortunately those feelings are really real and some people and they’re very intense and overwhelming and so some people while trying to figure out how to heal their body and cope they need to use something or they literally will flip out and I have to say that none of us really know what’s going to work that’s why I think it’s great that we can all keep talking and exchanging tips and try what other people of tried because we may find that magic solution for ourselves because I’ve been working really hard at this and spending every dime in selling my home and everything I’ve owned I’ve even removed my breast implants entirely that I had I’ve travelled all over the country and try different protocols I’ve done everything because I’m determined to get better and sometimes it’s just really hard to fix your body . I love chiropractic care I’ve had to use it on a regular basis since I was 10 years old during my first injury and I’m now 44 so I’ve been using it well over 30 years but I can say that it’s never help to me with anxiety or panic or anything mental per se but I have recently found this amazing neurologist who does amazing work on the brain sacral cranial therapy and he’s the best I’ve ever seen do this and I really feel this is going to help me tons in that area and also I recently started learning and doing Qigong And I think something amazing is going to come through with that and I’ve heard some amazing stories of people who have done it consistently and giving it a long amount of time like a year or two years and just seen amazing results of her people that I’ve met personally say that their lupus want to way over there rheumatoid arthritis one away and I’ve heard some other amazing story so it’s surging and experimenting and never giving up! and I think something amazing is going to come through with that and I’ve heard some amazing stories of people who have done it consistently and giving it a long amount of time like a year two years and just seen amazing results of her people that I’ve met personally say that their lupus want to way over there rheumatoid arthritis one away and I’ve heard some other amazing story so it’s surging and experimenting and never giving up !
    But definitely all the basics and the things that people wrote in the adrenal fatigue solution rest diet stress management things like that or key foundational factor that has to be done that is a must

    HelpingMeWeanOffSteroids. I understand what you’re saying. I get that. The good news is there are natural, drugless products that can help with that instead of medication. For example, I take as needed a product called Li-Zyme Forte which is 150mcg of plant based Lithium produced by Biotics Research Corp. It’s used for metal stress, anxiety and depression. They have other products also that help with that. I like the Li-Zyme Forte because it puts me to a nice even keel and a comfortable relaxed state and not a drugged, lethargic, cloud nine state. i.e. no side effects. Helps me sleep sound too.

    Everyone is different. Some things will work for one and not the other. We are so individually unique and sometimes we have to find what works for us even though we are getting help. I think we can agree on that. I always want to encourage and help others. If they can benefit from my experiences, than way cool.

    You got the right attitude kid. Keep your head high.
    Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy, Prosperous New Year.
