Hi Peter....
I use a brand of yohimbe made by Herbs Pharm.
I have used other brands too, and they also work. The main thing is to get the herb in liquid
form; that way you can vary dosages according to needs and the liquid starts working in a short period of time (i hr. or so)The more depressed I am, the more I take. My dose varies between 5 - 20 drops a day. I usually split the dose up. But using something I can gear to my body depending on its mood has been critical in my healing. Make sure to read the insructions for yohimbe because there are side efffects for some people. And talk to your Doc about it. If you try it, you may have to experiment with dosages, time to take the drug ,etc. Do not give up too soon. I am in an up cycle, and am not taking it. But two weeks ago I went real low, and took about 25 drops that day. And sometimes taking 3 drops is plenty; other times 20 drops barely help. It has definitely helped with my mild to moderate depressions. I vary the dose according to my needs. It does not make me feel drained and it does not make me feel too druggy. As with everything though, do some research and start slow. Vary doses, times of day to take them -- all the usual experiments that goes along with the start up of a new drug.Talk to your doctor about it.Yohimbe has been the most consistent "stimulant" I have tried (and I
tried a lot) Good luck, Stephanie
