Thanks.

I tried SJW a couple of tablets, for a couple of days. Also before this tried 5HTP. Neither seemed to have any effect, or if any, made me feel worse. I feel better after stopping all of this (including fish oil). I wish there were something that helped!

I can tell you what does help, you know that cognitive behavioral therapy self-course that that lady came up with 14 years ago? I heard it advertised on the radio, and it's an 11-week course I believe. A friend of mine bought it (not sure how much) and I copied the first tape and the relaxation tape, and it really seems worthwhile. A LOT of people who had limited/no success with medications responded amazingly to this therapy. The relaxation tape is such an effective tool. I find it (so far) to be great for anxiety, but still haven't done it for long enough to judge how it deals with depression. Many people swear by it. If I do it, I'll keep you posted.

Thanks for your input. Good luck to everyone.

Take care,
Charlie
