Oh my, poor dear! So sorry to hear about her mother...I cannot imagine! She is lucky to have you helping her out...truly.
If she is having anxiety and depression...I have to say, the thing I notice most when taking the Lithium orotate is that my anxiety is (dare I say it)...gone...now, I still have some swings into depression, but the constant worry and cyclic thinking that seems to keep me under the covers is basically resolved. So the depression is more like a lack of energy/motivation, hyper/hyposomnia (this can be very inconsistent), and overall blah mood rather than the constant negative ramblings in my head. So, perhaps LiOr would help too??
I still keep meaning to order/find the Chinese formula you take...I am really interested in taking it, and recently I keep getting this nagging feeling that I need to do a liver cleanse or take some form of liver support. Don't ask me why...just a hunch!
The other thing I recently (past 2-3 weeks) added is a homeopathic dropper formula by Newton labs www.newtonlabs.net (think it's called Mood & blues) I was very skeptical that it would do anything, but some people swear by homeopathic formulas so I decided to give it a go. I just was feeling blah, as I often do, with very little motivation to do much let alone think about socializing, happy was not really an emotion I had felt in some time. I took 6 drops every 15 min for about 4 hours...I noticed an interesting sensation within 45 min...like a fog being lifted out of my brain. As in, phsycally "felt" something...like a tingling feeling...I know that probably sounds nuts, but then I was just smiling and so comfortable in my skin. I don't think it has effected my motivation/energy issues, but I am definitely not nearly as blah as I was before taking it.
Give my best to your friend, I hope things look on the upside soon.
