Totally recommend this to anyone. I have been suffering with depression,so bad that i would just sleep for days just to stay alive. up to the point where if there was stressfull situation,my body's response was immediate sleepiness,as in my sleep i feel safe and like i can run away from it all. i also suffer from terrible pms( worsened due to hormone imbalance caused by endometriosis and ovarian cysts): whole spectrum of moodswings.I would yell at people,unable to stop myself,after i have yelled at them,i would sit and cry,because it feels awful to know why it happened,but that i wasnt able to stop myself,i would end up selfloathing and hating myself. been taking 5HTP for a month now 200mg in the morning and 200mg in the evening. my moodswings have stopped,i dont feel like i want to curl under the rock and sleep till all my problems are gone,anymore. /i dont yell at people,dont burst into tears either. just feel very levelled and focused. this doesnt make you feel high,or silly'happy',neither it makes you feel drowsy. in fact it doesnt feel like its affecting me physicaly at all. MENTALLY THOUGH I FEEL NORMAL NOW,THE WAY I WAS BEFORE I GOT DEPRESSED. it really is a miracle,like if someone's climbed in my head and put everything on the right shelves is best way i can describe it. i have tried valiums (diazepams )before ,and sometimes even 10mg wouldnt help,all it did was make me drowsy and numb. its also addictive. iam currently not taking anything else with 5htp,as i wanted to see if it would do anything,well i dont need anything else,this is my best discovery,something i really never expected to work,considering its herbal. hope it works as well for others as its worked for me.i noticed improvement within a week,though i wasnt sure if its not a coincidence,now after a month,i can certainly say,this does work.

I used it to help me discontinue citalopram, as tapering off without supplementation always ended at 10mg citalopram when I was starting to get nightmares, wake up with anxiety and fast heartbeat and feel brain fog headache through the day which interfered with work. I took just 50mg 5-HTP every evening and that was enough to help me finish with SSRIs. I wasn't expecting much at first, but ... Show Full Comment

I struggle with seasonal depression. For the past 2 winters, I have taken 5-HTP 200 mg time release daily, along with fish oil for 2-3 months, and have managed my depression well. I definitely recommend this over traditional anti-depressants!

No sexual side effects and depression is under control. Highly recommended.

This is a wonder pill. The fact it is all natural is what makes it so outstanding. I have never felt such an uplift in my mood, and help with anxiety as when I took this.
