Thanks try another castle for your great update on anti depressants, better to say mood stabilizers.You can Buy risperdal.It can stablize smoothly mental restless and calms you within few days of using it. Adult must take 1 milligram every day to get any viable results. It works fine for Schizophrenia patients also.

I was on risperdal for years and at the lower doses, it didn't do anything, at the higher ones it spaced me the fuck out, unfortunately. I was eventually switched to seroquel, which seems to work for both my anxiety and my insomnia. Unfortunately, it has raised my blood sugar level, and I really don't feel like getting diabetes, thanks.

I'd solely do benzos for anxiety if I could, but they have no effect on me. Neither does gabapentin.

What a choice to have to make.. sanity or diabetes. Hopefully my doc can find another anti-psychotic which will help.

Castle:What ever hapened with your fish oil experiment?

[try another castle]

I'm still taking it. Don't know if I really see any difference, though. Hard to say. I'm taking the proper amounts, too.

Castle:It was recommended to me, too. How much is the "proper" amount.  I forgot.   1000mg?

[try another castle]

It's a lot. It's more than just the mg amount, it's the mg of fish body oils, epa and dha per pill. Some have higher concentrations than others. I use the trader joe's brand, which actually has a higher concentration than most, even the fancy swanson fish oil.

My pills are 500mg, with a fish body oil of 1100mg. Of that, the EPA is 300mg, and the DHA is 200. I take about six of those pills. Because of the higher concentration, I can take less. Normally you want to take around nine. Best to ask your doctor, though.
