There was an article in the American Journal of Psychiatry (159:477-479 March 2002) about a study of 20 people taking 1 gram E-EPA per day. The study reported significant benefits by the third week of treatment. The URL is: http://ajp.psychiatryonline.org/cgi/content/full/159/3/477
Good luck, and let us know how it's going.
