You know ketamine shows promise in treating depression? With that in mind, see this article by Emily Deans, MD. It's fascinating.

"So is there a less dramatic, β€œnatural” version of ketamine, something we can safely ingest every day, but might be a little depleted in our modern diets?"

And then she goes on to talk about magnesium.

@mirabilis i've been seeing lots of recommendations of magnesium lately independent of this.

@mirabilis i've been researching options lately for my specific condition (PCOS/PMDD) and i've got a nice list of supplements i'm starting to add to my regimen. magnesium was one of them that came up repeatedly.

@pixelpaperyarn Interesting. I hope that something in your supplement list will work to give you perfect results.

I come across a fair number of women who switched to a paleo ketogenic diet in order to deal with PCOS.

@mirabilis interesting. paleo/keto is really really hard as a vegetarian, so i've not really seen it as an option.

@pixelpaperyarn It would certainly be a big challenge. Do you eat eggs and dairy products? Nuts?

@mirabilis yup. i do dairy and eggs and love nuts. it’s something i might look into again. gonna see how far the supplements take me first.
