Same.Went to Mayo even. But I didn’t like the answer they gave me because I’ve been depressed my whole life so I didn’t make sense why now. So I went to a nutritionist to get a third opinion. She ran a stool test and found I had a bacterial infection (C diff). I am now getting proper treatment. Mayo was going to let me walk around believing my brain was the issue and that a stool softener and adding another antidepressant was the solution. If the help Mayo gave you is enough than good!! But if not I would recommend finding a local nutritionist, naturopath, anything.

I talked to a nutritionist and she just said to try going off of added sugars. No one has ever run a stool test and I’ve had issues for 5 years..
