Janice, I have spent hundreds of dollars on so-called "natural remedies" for depression as well as fatigue. Not once did I find anything worth buying a second bottle of. Seriously, if it says, "lifts moods" or "increases energy", I've tried it! There was never anything that I could even tell a difference if I took it or not. So, now I'm on Wellbutrin and Adderall, and the only supplements I take are: a multi-vitamin, calcium, vitamin E, and fish oil capsules. And, the fish oil, I only keep taking because of all the hype about cold water fish being good for the cardio-vascular system(although, I did *start* taking it to see if it would help my depression, no luck!).
The only thing I have not tried is SAM-e. The reason is, it is so expensive, that I really have to experiment with all the stuff that my insurance will cover, before I try it, in case it works! CarolAnn
