Last story we talked about emotional w/ tears and rage. I think the next thing to talk about would be feeling worthless.
Normally I know that I am a good mother and wife. I know that my number one goal in life is to be a good mom, so I feel as though I am in tune with that, and do it well.

I am not a doctor or a nurse nor do I pretend to not it all about natural meds.
I don’t know the exact amounts of diff items, from what I have read, it is really all about starting with a low dose and going from there, deciding what works for your body.
I have used 5HTP, a lot of women that don’t want to take prescription meds, use 5HTP or LTryph in place of the prescriptions, this helps with the anxiety.
