A member asked:

Are there any antidepressants that do not make people under the age 25 feel suicidal & safe while breastfeeding?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Craniosacral therapy and acupuncture can help a lot with depression/ depressive symptoms. And are safe while breastfeeding. You can also try adding omega three fatty acids to your supplements (like fish oil or chia seeds or udos oil) some people experience profound relief...Others do not.
