IMO (or at least, for me -- someone who cannot stand any degree of cognitive impairment) if you can follow the diet and be strict about it the side effects are nothing compared to SSRIs or benzodiazepines, especially after a while.
I understand the difficulty you have. I volunteered in a little village in South India for three months, end of last year.
There's a lot of conservatism and ignorance, frankly. But there's also a great deal of goodness and enlightenment -- I wish you luck in finding some help.
In the village I was in we were constantly exposed to trash fires and choking smog -- the products of unregulated globalization hitting home. I am fairly sure the level of toxic metals/fumes etc. that the people in Sivakasi were regularly exposed to is going to have an effect on mood/mental functioning, especially with time. Call it a hunch.
I once saw a group of children dancing around a trash fire full of burning plastic. Sucks.
Again, good luck man.
Peace,
cumulative
