Orthomolecular is a good topic. I've got a bunch of stuff on that. My daughter was taking B-3 during the removal of Zyprexa. The inpatient docs ditched my 'in the gut' talks as well as the B-3. There's a lot to this.

All I can say about beauty queen rep: she's got a mission to sell psych meds to teen girls is the target audience there, because of theories of antidepressants helping anorexics. As an ex-Miss Photography Hall greeter as a 14 year old at a Ca. County Fair--I can promise everyone that Miss Anyone has a few tricks of the trade to stay thin, and keep that toothy grin in shape. Now Pharma thinks they can get in on that.rah.rah."Good for her!"

I happen to have an Austrian friend, who has 2 of 4 generations dx w mental illness. Interesting.

Thanks for the interesting reads.

I have many psych diagnosis, which one or ones do you want to beleive in? Anyways food is definitely critical to good health in anyone, specially "mentally ill". I eat three fruits minimum every day , apple orange and a handfull of grapes. According to experts we are supposed to have five to six but I can't come up with three more.
I can't have anything with whole wheat in it, like pasta. I used to eat kraft (mac and cheese)dinner every other day.
What happens is an upset stomach/bowel. If my stomach is unhappy, I'm unhappy.Pretty simple. I would enjoy eating cheesy kraft dinner with ketchup again, but I know I can't :-(
I might have celiac disease (http://www.celiac.com/index.html) but who cares?
I just need another pill for my mental illness.
