For the first 6 months it was 10k iu/day and 50k iu once a week. Now it’s 5k iu/day and in the winter I double it up every 3 days.

As a vet with PTSD, my worst downward spiral was when my Vit D was the lowest it’s ever been. I had to be put on max doseages for 6 months and will be taking a daily supplement the rest of my life to make sure it doesn’t happen again. Vit D, at least in my body, absolutely improves depressive symptoms.
