5 HTP is the precursor for serotonin.
Lowlevels cause depression.
In america you can luckily get it anywhere.

I take 100 mg mid morning and mid afternoon.

Am off SSRI anti depressant.

That stuff only prevents the serotonin you have from being reabsorbed.
I just didn't seem to have enough to even start with, let alone keep it in the system.

Since I am on 5HTP my mood is relaxed and content. I sleep better.
Theanine is great for anxiety.

Try it.

Little to no side effects as it is a natural amino acid.

Hang in there.

I love my life. My fibro and brain chemical related problems cause the depression. NOT my ife.

I take tramadol for pain. I've also taken effexor for depression gabapentin for fibromyalgia pain now I'm trying Cymbalta which does with so far everything seems good

I had a lot of pain in my legs.I use to get up and walk the floor every night .Then I got my veins checked and the one going down the side of my leg was blocked and the one going up back of leg was bad .They lassered them closed and no more pain.Also I take Savella for my fribo and have hade good luck with it

Really? Never heard of it. Do you get it from the pharmacy?

See a rhuematogist that also treats fibromyalgia. The only thing I take is Cymbalta for pain and it works for me. Pain meds do not work at all. I take benedryl when I'm in pain so I can sleep. I wake up tired every day. I force myself to get up and shower.
