We're also chronically deficient in vitamin D here, so supplementing is a must in winter. It will provide serotonin to boost your mood and help your circadian rhythm do you get better sleep and are more mentally refreshed during the day. That can never hurt.
Medicating is only treating your symptoms after all and can come with side effects. If you seek out proper nutrition as best you can, even if it's managing a few eggs, seeds, a couple teaspoons of nutritional yeast and basic supplements, can possibly help tackle your symptoms at their root.

Please don't lead people astray with this nonsense. What does "medicating is only treating your symptoms" mean? If that's the case, how are supplements different (besides not working)?
