i do not want to take anti depressives even in little doses,i know that i could somatize any possible side effect. things go better since a couple of days. i did not change anything and did not take any medicine. every evening i make a foothbath with lot of salt, i make a massage with arnica or if  much pain with ketoprofene  foam. i take some drops of benzodiazepine and PEA.
