Something to check is your lipids/cholesterol.
MDS has a known link to low lipids/cholesterol, and low lipids/cholesterol has a known link to depression.
In my case, I have eaten a lot of eggs, shrimp, crab legs, cream, etc. and taken 5 1200mg fish capsules per day. My lipids have risen from total of 95 to a total of 120, and my memory and mental health have been much improved, I believe, as a result.

I have always been able to have some control over my life and it just seems like I have lost it.
