I was given a news clipping today stating that forehead botox, which treats the wrinkels on your forehead, for some as yet unexplained reason, has had a significant good effect on depression. Test results have apparantly shown an almost 50% reduction in symptoms of depression after the botox treatment compared to test subjects who had placebo injections. Well, I botoxed myself today...... (don't try this at home; I am trained and qualified to administer botox but have just never done it on myself before)...... and we'll see what happens. At least I will look 10 years younger...LOL. Dr Axel Wollmer, who led the study, says:"Our findings provide support for the concept that the facial muscles that control frowning not only express but also regulate mood".
Well, fingers crossed and I'll keep the forum updated as to my results. Good luck all ....
