Guest guest Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 That's really great! >>He is also going to work with us to get DH off the Prozac but that will not be until at least 6 weeks (maybe longer) after we start GAPS. And the process of getting off antidepressants, he said, is a long and difficult process. He said that you have to reduce the dose by 10% every 2 weeks or longer. He said it takes a year or more.>> He's right about that IMO! After learning the hard way, it took me 9 months of shaving pills down to get off and onto 5-HTP, then several more months of determined NT and more to get off that. I'm interested to hear his ideas of a timeline and how it will work out. I think one reason Dr. CMB seems to contradict herself is that she customizes a lot for individual situations. We're all different, and I'm avidly watching and listening to try to understand the variations. That's why I'm sorry to see that some people are forming a local group that will take discussions away from where I can hear them too.

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Anne Marie, That is such great news about your DH and the diet and transitioning off meds. Fantastic! I know your baby is leading the way with her amazing diet that you work so hard to provide. Congratulations to your little family. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Keep us posted, Millie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
