Hi GabaGirl -see my above post on l-tryptophan. It's really working for me. I don't know how long I will take it for though - depends what long term effects there are (if I go too much the other way). It also seems to have sorted out the inositol dilemmma in that I am no longer too activated by it.
Hang in there and take whatever you have to, that's my motto. It's all better than meds.
