Answers:
Yes it saved my life!. Seriously!.
I had never been so depressed in my life after I got off Paxil!. I was taking Paxil for anxiety and had no idea it would leave me completely devastated when I stopped it!. I was *this close* to considering suicide, and if not for my husband I think I may have done something horrible!.
Mine was a deep, dark, black, horrible hole of depression!. A heavy, smothering weight pushing down on my shoulders!. I would cry all day, then wash my face and try to look "normal" for when my husband got home from work!.

Anyway, I remember going to the acupuncturist's office and I didn't know if I'd be able to speak because I was so tearful!.
After a 30 minute session, I walked out of there feeling like a HUGE weight was off my shoulders!. I actually smiled and laughed for the first time in ages!.
I ended up having about 11 sessions lasting about 30 minutes (twice a week)!. That was in 2006!. I have had some setbacks and some sadness over certain life events, but I have never felt as horrible as I did prior to the acupuncture!. It really did save my life!.

My acupuncturist also recommended some lifestyle changes that supported the treatment- it's a whole mind/body thing!. I am forever grateful to her!. I can look back now and thank God I found her!.!.!.!.

Funny how I found her!. I was sitting with the phone book on my lap and was super-upset!. I said "If I don't find a way to get over this, I'm going to stick a needle in my eye!!" and the phone book slipped off my lap!. I grabbed it, and the page opened to acupuncture!!! The ad said "Acupuncture for Depression/Anxiety Relief"
Wow-- huh!?
So yeah- TRY IT!!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com
