> Folks interested in 5htp,
I take 1 or 2 60 mg capsules a day. I take one in the am, and if I'm feeling like I need more at noon, I take it, but many days one seems to be enough. The great thing is, this stuff started working within 3 days for me. I know it's really working not only by my improved mood, but by those really vivid, constant dreams that I also had when SSRI's worked for me. Speaking of SSRI's, I turned to 5htp after a return to Prozac failed and Celexa and Zoloft proved problematic due to side effects (including the anorgasmia). I too took St. Johns and it did little or nothing, but 5htp is quite a different story. No side effects so far. I'll keep everyone posted. As you can tell, I'm delighted. If you have a Vitamin World near you, that's where I get mine.
