I ended up doing genetic testing and found that I had an issue where my body doesn’t break down vitamin b enough to go to my brain- so blood work always showed it was fine but once I got into a special pre-broken-down vitamin b it fixed everything I was using other meds for and now it’s all I take. 🤷🏻♀️ I have no clue how common that is- or how to ask a doc for it. But genetic testing and hormone/blood testing is always a good start. Food sensitivity testing to eliminate foods that are putting your body into survival mode- all of those bit by but helped me.
Hi! I'm in the same boat. I know there are herbal remedies like 5-HTP and St. John's Wort. Do NOT take these along with Lexapro though, only in place of it!
