Thanks mom! Very lovely. 🙃
Just average Asian Parent Stories. I think we need a c/AsianParentStories here on Lemmy lmao
Guess why Tangping is a thing in China. Parents like you, mom.
I’m so tired…
I had debilitating depression and my doctor actually prescribed vitamin D and told me to get outside and do more exercise.
The first year was a slight improvement, the second year I forgot the vitamin D until late winter and the third year I really began to notice the difference.
It’s been about 6 years now and the change has been drastic.
Yeah! I’ve had chronic depression for most of my life and I’ve noticed an improvement to it since taking vit D supplements, especially during winter months.
It’s not a fix, but it’s been a clear improvement for me.
Oh yea I heard about vitamin deficiency. Yea I’m trying some OTC multi-vitamins, but kinda forgot for the past few days, so I need to make sure I don’t forget to take them lol.
Vitamin D is important because it can kind of get you stuck in a loop. You don’t leave the house because of depression and don’t get Vitamin D because you don’t leave the house and the deficiency greatly heightens the symptoms of depression.
In her defense, the doctors in China would sooner recommend herbal teas and tinctures over actually seeing mental health specialists.
I’m guessing she is not in the camp that recognizes actual medical quackery though, haha. Sorry you have to deal with that.
Thought for a moment you wanted to present that statement to us. 😳 ~(Sorry that you have to go through that.)~
Why would doctors lie to you? What could they possibly stand to gain?
Idk, go ask my mother lmfao
Something something “they are trying to make money off you” or some shit
Because she said last time I took antidepressants, I didn’t get better, so it must be the “side effects”
So… 🤷♂️
