Depression or what?

[rana64]

I had been under stress for the last 6 weeks and also i am trying  to eliminate temazepam from my body using klonoping and reducing the dosage every two weeks, but I notice now that everyday i am getting worse, feeling more depress and anxiety than before, criying without reason, unable to find calm or happiness in anything, the doctor gave me  a bigger dose of imipramine but is working worse for me, I had post in other forums for other health issues but today the crying and the nausea product of anxiety are getting worse, maybe I only need somebody to listen, feeling very lonely and sad. I want to know if this is part of been almost fifty or more my depression,OCD and anxiety working inside me. Thanks.

Hi Nana, I am posting here for you from Pub Med an info on Treating Depression with Magnesium.
Its a cut and paste as its not allowed to put in the website here.
So many of the public are suffering from depression and anxiety and mood disorders even the children are affected. Its because the food that we eat  does not  have enough nutrients anymore..
I would encourage you to read "The Magnesium Miracle" of Dr Carolyn Dean. It gives so much info as to the whys and hows of Mg deficiency. She is also on You tube . Search Magnesium Deficiency.
Here is the Article:

Rapid recovery from major depression using magnesium treatment.

Abstract
Major depression is a mood disorder characterized by a sense of inadequacy, despondency, decreased activity, pessimism, anhedonia and sadness where these symptoms severely disrupt and adversely affect the person's life, sometimes to such an extent that suicide is attempted or results. Antidepressant drugs are not always effective and some have been accused of causing an increased number of suicides particularly in young people. Magnesium deficiency is well known to produce neuropathologies. Only 16% of the magnesium found in whole wheat remains in refined flour, and magnesium has been removed from most drinking water supplies, setting a stage for human magnesium deficiency. Magnesium ions regulate calcium ion flow in neuronal calcium channels, helping to regulate neuronal nitric oxide production. In magnesium deficiency, neuronal requirements for magnesium may not be met, causing neuronal damage which could manifest as depression. Magnesium treatment is hypothesized to be effective in treating major depression resulting from intraneuronal magnesium deficits. These magnesium ion neuronal deficits may be induced by stress hormones, excessive dietary calcium as well as dietary deficiencies of magnesium.

Case histories are presented showing rapid recovery (less than 7 days) from major depression using 125-300 mg of magnesium (as glycinate and taurinate) with each meal and at bedtime.

Magnesium was found usually effective for treatment of depression in general use. Related and accompanying mental illnesses in these case histories including traumatic brain injury, headache, suicidal ideation, anxiety, irritability, insomnia, postpartum depression, cocaine, alcohol and tobacco abuse, hypersensitivity to calcium, short-term memory loss and IQ loss were also benefited. Dietary deficiencies of magnesium, coupled with excess calcium and stress may cause many cases of other related symptoms including agitation, anxiety, irritability, confusion, asthenia, sleeplessness, headache, delirium, hallucinations and hyperexcitability, with each of these having been previously documented. The possibility that magnesium deficiency is the cause of most major depression and related mental health problems including IQ loss and addiction is enormously important to public health and is recommended for immediate further study. Fortifying refined grain and drinking water with biologically available magnesium to pre-twentieth century levels is recommended.

Mg Glycinate is easily obtainable on line. Its a supplement that everyone needs. Its best to be taken with Vit D as it would push Mg into the cells where it needs to be.
I hope it helps you. Its the healthier choice. Depression is real, but there is a cause and a cure. Nausea is also a sign of Mg deficiency, so it would help that as well.
Take care, keep us posted when you can..
