vitamins depression

Hi. For all my life I had problems with overweight and when I entered puberty I tried to act like some rebel. I wasn’t eating for days and of course, this caused extreme weight loss and vitamin deficiency. My life has been in jeopardized.
So, with help of my family and my doctor I started with healthy food and vitamins substitute pills. I have gain almost normal weight and I looked very healthy but something strange was happening with me.
Instead of being happy I was very depressed. I can't explain this.
So, I was thinking that maybe some of these vitamins caused my depression.

I have one thing to admit- when I have read your question I thought that I’ve never read funnier thing. I have always consider vitamins as most healthier ingredient, but I did some research on my own I found out that I you were right. So, I apologize.
Certain nutrients and dietary supplements have been associated with depression undid.
Vitamin B9, also known as folate, is one of these supplements because folate may be associated with depression more than any other nutrient.
There are also some other nutrients that can cause depression such as Omega-3 fatty acids, S-Adenosinemethionine, Tryptophan, Selenium and Inozitol.

I breathed a sigh of relief in reading this post. For lack of better verbage I went a little crazy after I started taking daily vitamins the past year and it only ended when I stopped taking them. My more medically inclined friends told me it was in my head and there's nothing toxic about daily vitamins because the excess would just be excreted. Cundy- do you have links to the research you found, I would be very interested in reading more about it.

I agree! I am well educated, stable, have tried off and on different supplements, some for workouts, some multi-vitamins, some to reduce cholesterol, and I have truly felt more moody, depressed until I stopped taking them, so glad I'm not the only one!

I dont know . I really dont know what to do.....You people says that vitamins causes depression and the doctor tells me to take vitamins especially vitamins B and Omega 3 to help battle my depression . Who can I belive in then ???? I think vitamins are there to help the body and mind function well and not the other way .. i dont agree with you people that vitamins can causes depression im sorry !!!
