Perfect timing for this to come up on my recommendations. I just started tapering down on my antidepressant last night. Having a lot of anxiety about it but this is a great reminder that our bodies are so smart and powerful and will heal themselves if let them. Looking forward to more videos from you.🌷

It is completely normal to feel some anxiety when you first begin tapering off and although you're feeling anxious about it, I just have to say - I am so excited for you!! It takes a lot of courage to make that leap but it is SO worth it in the end. If you need someone to bounce any ideas off of, I'm here 🤍

@@ricksteeze8159 I notice myself sighing when I explain things sometimes 😅 I think I get a little out of breath haha. Just moving some Qi, I guess. It’s exciting to hear you’re at this phase of your journey! Such a powerful moment when it hits home that they’re not needed to feel the way you wish to feel 🫂

I’d recommend finding an acupuncturist and/or Chinese herbalist in your area. Both of these have been huge in my own journey! An ND might be able to recommend some supplements that can help bring about more balance as well, without any pharmaceuticals. Having certain go-to’s for those particularly hard days can also be really helpful. I like going down to the river. Water is very grounding and so is any time spent outside. But it could just be a practice or activity that is soothing to your system. I’m sorry you’re going through this right now and I completely understand not wanting to take any pills. Mental health can be really hard to navigate at the beginning but it is possible!

@@Sydneyfc77 I would definitely start with Ashwagandha if you haven't already. In terms of Chinese formulas - Chai Hu Jia Long Gu Mu Li Tang is phenomenal. I'm not sure what state you are in and what the regulations are like there in terms of prescribing, but definitely worth looking into!
