If you can meditate daily, it is guaranteed to provide some relief. The problem is sometimes its hard to keep up with it but I make it a habit of doing a body scan before bed and then trying to meditate once during the day. Check out Jon Kabatz Zin for some good guidance. You could also find a Buddhist temple as they usually offer free classes.

I think a holistic approach would work well. I prefer orthomolecular medicine as they are specialists in nutrient levels and mental health. I have been off and on a nutrient formula which is basically like my own personal multi. I know I had very low zinc.

I tried to find in person support in my area but did not find anyone who wanted to meet up. I found a few people but guess people in wd sometimes dont like to be around others. I know Laura Delano knows various psychiatric survivors around the country so maybe you could ask her.

I was wondering (maybe others could add to this), but isnt it better to taper the cymbalta first before trazodone? I think cymbalta is one of the hardest to get off along side paxil and effexor so the trazadone may help that. just a thought.
Bruno, I'll respond to this when I can think straight. Thanks for your thoughts. Bad night here.
