[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 365574, member: 8831"] thanks susie...sorry to hear how bad its been for you. they missed mine for a long time....first i was diagnosis'd with depression and handed over an AD (even though my life sux, i wasnt depressed, LOL), and then trotted out the menopausal diagnosis's and handed over different AD's (even though it so wasnt that). turned out between a freaky thyroid issue and the vitD deficiency it was a miracle i could move. the exhaustion and depression were beyond overwhelming, and i saw massive improvements with high-dose d and a low dose of armour thyroid. but i'm "female, fat and 40-something". its not unreasonable to have a vitD deficiency. (or a thyroid issue) it kinda IS in a healthy 11 year old girl who plays outside daily. and who has been diagnosis'd with depression and mood issues. in her case, i've complained all along that abilify seems to be doing nothing for the depression, and she's constantly exhausted--i thought maybe it was a side effect from ability, or teenage angst, or who knows what....but i [I]really [/I]didnt expect a vitD issue....particulary in JUNE...(i would have believed it more in november)...i was just trying to rule out as many things i can think of. so yea, its no joke....nor do i think it will fix my difficult child. but the long term ramifications, as you've pointed out, arent worth skipping a simple treatment of a vitamin. this was more of a PSA....sorry if anyone thought i was implying it was some kind of a cure, because i'm not by a long shot. i'm suggesting if you havent had your kids levels tested, AND you have regularly scheduled bloodwork upcoming, its worth a look.
