In reply to Fish oil interactions with other supplements, posted by Hyena on January 12, 2011, at 13:46:59
Just an update. I've decided to give fish oil a break. i may not ever take it again. today i've had one of my worst depression episodes in months and i'm nearly sure fish oil is to blame. the day before yesterday i had a fantastic effect from it then yesterday became depressed after taking it. today i didnt even take it but the depression is still there.
its not normal depression like i used to get either. it's seriously dark feelings of hopelessness and despair. even exercise, which always puts the breaks on my depression, does nothing for me.
hopefully i will feel better tomorrow. it's disappointing but i just dont think i can put up with these ups and downs from fish oil anymore. no other supplement does this to me. it's just not worth the hassle in my opinion. when it works its better than anything i've tried. but when gives me a reaction like this its hell.
all i ever hear about fish oil is good things. nobody seems to mention that there can be paradoxical reactions like this.
