My neighbour is suffering from depression. She lost her only 22 year old son and her husband in a plane crash. Two months have already passed but I think she has not been able to forget them. No medicine seems to have an effect on her. She doesn’t sleep at night nor does she eat properly. She is staying at our place but we are not able to help her get out of this situation. One of my friends said that Mindsoothe depression capsules will be best for her. I have searched for this drug in many pharmacies in my localities but they are not available. I am thinking to buy them online. I found one site http://www.drugdelivery.ca/s31079-s-MINDSOOTHE-DEPRESSION-CAPSULES.aspx . But I have never bought anything from this pharmacy before. Could you drop me a note if this pharmacy is legit? Also anyone knows about this medicine, Mindsoothe depression capsules. Is it really effective?

Losing a child and a husband all at once is a devistating. I know you are being a good neighbor but she may need time to her self. My Aunt lost her youngest 20 yrs ago, and it was a love from family and friend and time helped.
Be there for her but dont smother her. She is going to need to grieve in her way. I dont think any drug is going to help with the feelings of loss. I personally wouldnt advice medication unless it done by a doctor. ( which I am not, just going by experience.)
I just loss my friend to a many yrs of suffering of cancer, diabeties, and a recent leg surgery that didnt work. She also had a stroke, 3 this past Easter. she was a neighboor and good friend, yes she was old and tired of fightigng her body finally said No more. I know being with her and visiting her in the nursing home ( since last february before that she lived downstair from me in fact right under neath me. )
I do miss her, it was hard but I realised that she would not want me to stop living. Let your friend talk about it to you. Talking is the best. She may want to start a journal even if it online ( remind her she can keep it private ) It is up to her.
Other suggestions.
talking wtih a therapist.
journalling when she can
writing her daughter and husband notes ( I saw this on a movie last night where a mother wrote her daughter in a journal to the daughter about her feelings.) This can help her alot. It will help her to heal as she gets her feelings out. )
I think journalling and therapy would be the best ideas rright now, these are my opinions .
She will be in our thoughts.

N.B. sorry for being TOUGH on you, but i think that once you think this through, in detail, you will see what I mean.
Prescribing for your Neighbour, and treating your Neighbour's depression (or, self-treating depression) can be a dangerous thing.
I highly (highly) recommend against it.
She needs to see a Doctor. They know more about differentiating out Grief vs. Depression, and what to do in this case. (e.g. along the lines of Kubler-Ross)
By skewing boundaries and "practicing medicine" on your Friend, you put yourself at risk of a lot of Legal Liability.
Consider this scenario:
What if she takes your 'pills' (which you BELIEVE are 'Anti-depressants', and might just be empty supplements sold online by some scamming unregulated online pharmacy).
What if these "Anti-depressants" don't work, and then she decides it is hopeless and ends it all.
Have you really thought the Consequences and Legal Liability of this all through?
Doesn't your friend deserve REAL medical or therapeutic care by a professional?
You wouldn't treat your friend's HEART CONDITION or EPILEPSY by yourself, right?
Depression is an illness. (And it has a ~10% fatality rate.)
------
Look: I know you love your friend/neighbour -- but if you want to give her the BEST CARE that she deserves, please take her to a Doctor, or bring a Doctor to see her.

Well that’s really nice of you that you are taking care of your neighbour. I understand the pain of losing someone dear and she has lost two persons whom she loved most in her life. It’s so sad!! I have never used the medicine that you have mentioned but I think that the best thing you can do in this situation is to take her to a doctor. I mean will it be safe to give her medicines without prescription. I don’t think so!! As far as the pharmacy is concerned I remember having bought e-mycin http://www.drugdelivery.ca/s3468-s-E-MYCIN.aspx from this online pharmacy and I didn’t have any problem. You can buy from there.
All the best and take care!!
