> I do find a small dose of tyrosine helpful (I've only taken intermitantly, not daily). But I also feel an unpleasant let-down a day or so later, when the high level depletes again. And I don't enjoy taking it every day due to the water retention effects.

Wow. That sounds tough, Zenclearer. I wish i could be more helpful here... i have never noticed water retention. Only occasionally in a female-lunar-cycle sort of way ;)


> If this happens to you, does it resolve over time? And do you feel any crash, however subtle, a few days after your supplement depletes?
> Over time, I have experimented with amino supplements, and while they certainly help in the short term, I feel overall more up-and-downs. So I've found that there may not be a net gain for me.

My experience is that i continue steady-state until i go for too long WITHOUT my suppliments.
UNLESS i am eating what/how i should, and getting the exercise and sleep i should, etc.etc. then i have no up-downs. But really, WHO does that consistently?(not me, anyway) So i suppliment with those suppliments.

Hear-Hear!
