>I started taking Flax seed oil about 11 months ago. I was taking it for Chloresterol. I take a Tbls. a day. That would be equal to 9 1000mg tablets a day. Now I started that before I started suffering from anxiety this past March. So your ? reminded me about the mental benefits, so I looked back at my research at Barleans.com and other places. It suggested that I may not be taken enough. I'm going to up my dose to 2 Tbls. a day and see what happens and go from there. I don't know if this helps, but I sure would try it. Fish oil and Flax are very similar. I had no SE's from the Flax. Thanks for the question, because it reminded me of the benefits. I hope it works for you! Take care Tim
Hello all-
> I'm a 21 year old college student about to enter her senior year. I've been dealing with depression on and off since I was 10 years old- just didn't know how to put a label on it. Today is my third day on Lexapro. I've been reading previous posts from the past and they have helped tremendously in dealing with side effects. However, my doctor also wants me to take fish oil, 1000 mg 4x a day. Has anyone had any experience with this? Is it worth it to take these fish oil pills 4x a day? And thanks to all for all the benefits I've taken from this board.
