Mood Support

One of the most common concerns among my patients lately is fear and anxiety.  We are living in very uncertain times with much to be worried about including our health and the health of our loved ones, job loss, finances, homeschooling children and more.  On top of that we are physically isolated from others who might normally provide emotional support.  This has created an almost daily roller coaster of emotions in many of us ranging from fear to sadness to loneliness to frustration. 

Fortunately there are many resources to help including telemedicine visits with The Center for Mental Healthhttp://www.centermh.org, a private counselor or myself. 
I also recommend spending at least one hour daily moving your body outdoors if your health allows it, listening to music, dancing, appreciating or creating art, watching comedies, keeping in touch with loved ones, spending time with pets, cooking or working on home projects that you enjoy. 

Some people may also benefit from dietary supplements that support mood such as Omega-3s, B-Vitamins, Vitamin D3, Magnesium, 5-HTP, and St. John’s Wort.  I carry all of these items in the office so let us know if you would like to place an order or schedule a short consult to determine what is best for you.  I am here for you!
