I would recommend the following:


High Quality Fish Oil (Purified of heavy metals and toxins)
Vitmain B supplement

Fish oil is clinically proven to be effective in mild to moderate depression however it can take 4-6 weeks to really take an effect. Plus it's good for the heart.

Vitamin B is great for stress and also helps with anxiety.

If you can safely get off the pharmaceuticals with the supervision of your doctor then i would go with St. Johns Wort instead it has a component called Hyperforins that are in New Chapters St John's Wort extract that are effective as an SSRI. Just make sure not to take them when on any other anti deppreseant as they can interact negatively. Again takes 4-6 weeks for the effect to build. I would also take this at night as it can make you tired.

I've been on both these supplements with good results and no noticeable side effects.

The most effective thing to do though is get 30-45 minutes of moderate to intense cardio exercise a day. The chemicals released in the process are just as effective as ANY anti-deppresant.



As far as managing depression with Cannabis I would recomend a high quality Sativa Tincture which i think can be administered more routinely in any environment as you'll want to find a good level that works but doesn't effect you with doing what you need to. Start small and work your way up.

Good luck.
