Vitamin d
I know this is probably far out but has anyone ever tried vitamin d to feel better? I am deficient at 13, just wondering if anyone has looked into it being a cause?

I got labs done prior to being diagnosed with OCD and I was low in Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D….I just started taking them yesterday so hopefully that helps but I had also read that being low in both could have something to do with it, not sure how true or untrue it is though. I just hope it helps!
@Anonymous Yes I’m super deficient in vitamin d never thought to check vitamin b12 but I’ve seen people say things about that as well they let me know I had low vitamin d like 2 years ago even gave me a prescription for vitamins but due to anxiety I never really took it consistently I just took it today and plan on being consistent hopefully we notice a difference!
@Anonymous Yes, hopefully! I also took Ashwagandha with it last night (I work Night Shift) and I noticed the thoughts were still there but I wasn’t ruminating so I think that definitely helped!
2 doctors have told me that I'm deficienct in vitamin D and that it must be contributing to my depression 🤔💬
@kathleenshubby4eva Yes I’ve heard the same thing! When I went to the dr for anxiety & depression the first thing my dr did was check my vitamin d so that’s why I’m thinking it could all be connected
I went to get bloodwork done for my anxiety and the doctors told me that I need to start talking Vitamin D pills twice a day. The doctor told me I need it to strengthen my bones because my anxiety has put a huge toll on my body and I never noticed. I have been taking mine for about a month now and I haven’t noticed much yet but maybe you need to take it for a little longer for there to to be any sort of change. I hope all goes well if you DO start talking vitamin D 🙂
Yes, my doctor recommended it to me. Talking with your doctor first would be best.
I think I’m going through the hardest depression right now. I’ve never felt so compelled to just stop getting up and stop living. I know it’s hard to hear, I just really feel bad. Right now I even feel like an attention seeker. I just wanted to know, are there any tips to raise me from this hole im in? Has anyone else felt like this an pulled themselves out?
I just got diagnosed with ocd and she suggested I think about taking lexapro for it. Has anybody tried that and does it help at all?
Not necessarily asking for reassurance and I know I’ve mentioned this here before but my OCD has been affecting my cognition seemingly. I’ll forget small things or put things in odd places sometimes, or mix up words - things like that. Obviously this triggers me to be like “Alzheimers/dementia.” Can anyone relate? And if you recovered what did you do for it?
