    SAM-E or 5-htp for moderate depression?


    Anyone into this stuff?

    I`m looking to avoid another SSRI stint.

    I feel I`m falling in deeper,so I want to prevent it from escalating.

    I used St.John`Worth before,and it does relieve depression,but caused me a lot of panic so I wouldn`t use it again.

    What the source of your depression? Vitamin d and fishoils

    For very moderate it may help, I'm sure you know not to mix those with an SSRI. You may consider combining these with a great little product called Sunny Mood by Irwin Naturals.

    Hmmm

    Very interesting blend indeed!

    Looks like it has antidepressant/antianxiety/aphrodisiac ingredients.

    Found it now at my supplier-will probably add it to my order-not too expensive either.

    How did it work for you?

    So you`re thinking I should get both 5-htp and SAM-e(this one is a little pricy though)

    I don't see any reason at all not to combine them. I have not taken it nor do I work for Irwin Naturals but I am, well I do not want to say exactly what is I do, but I can assure you the company is solid. I have tried many Tboosters and their Testosterone UP formula all things considered works best for me...

    Haha

    And there`s a reason for that.

    I see they`ve included LJ100™-the most powerful free test elevator in the world.

    I love that extract.

    Ashwaghanda is pretty decent I take it all the time. What St. Johns have you tried? The perika kind always worked best for me. Probably going to take a handful of supps to get any relief and even then don't expect miracles. Really takes a change in your patterns of thought to truly overcome it.

    I second St Johns Wort as it seems to have some backing behind it.
    Have you been tested for thyriod etc. blood tests???
    Stay in touch with your doctors and or therapists. We don't always recognize signs getting worse.
    A few years back I slipped pretty far and it was quite hard getting back. I felt it was almost brain chemical or lack thereof almost beginning to compound.
    Be careful with that stuff, and get checked and talk to professionals regularly.

    I've never thought of it in this capacity, but our LiGHts Out has both 5-HTP and L-Dopa in one product.

    I'll look into it further, and get back with you - bulks are probably cheaper, although Nutra did have it for $16.87 not long ago.

    Try somatomax from hi-tech pharmaceuticals.... It increases dopamine levels and puts you to sleep! You will feel AMAZING On it. I take it for the same reasons. I'm deployed right now and it helps with a lot of stress! Try it. You won't e disappointed!
