> thank you for your time Morc, JaniceI say "it works", because it does clear up focused issues and painful memories. The jury's still out, though, unfortunately, over whether it alone is sufficient to overcome a history of depression and other similar problems. Meanwhile, I'm also continuing on a very small dose of 5HTP, which I increase as needed. Fingers crossed!
