General Approach: Once other medical conditions have been ruled out, i explore many options: psychorx, meds, natural supplements and lifestyle: sleep hygiene, mediterranean diet, relaxation, yoga, activity, etc. I use specialty lab kits to measure cortisol and other stress hormones (saliva) and neurotransmitters (urine).
