Vitamin D

Has anyone had any luck with using vitamin d for depression and anxiety? I've been on medication for a while now and was just wondering if their was anything that would help with depression that wouldn't have such bothersome side effects.

Thanks for the advise. I'll run it by my doctor and head by the vitamin shop as soon as possible. Thanks again!

Last year when I went thru a major depression I sought the help of a naturopath.  She recommended 4,000 iu of Vitamin D and Fish Oil as two supplements that help with depression.  I started on both and I do think they helped.  If you stay within the normal dosages, I don't think it could hurt.  Give it a try and see what it does for you.  Good luck.
