I can only speak from my personal experience, so please don't run out and buy anything. Fact check me!

Anyway, I'd say lots (I mean, like 3 grams daily) of niacinamide, divided into 2-4 doses. At least as much vitamin C--if not more--as niacinamide. There's time release C available, which I've found to be quite helpful. B-100 (again, I use time release) with food 1-2x daily. Later on, maybe some additional B-6 a couple times daily for energy and what not.

In terms of botanicals, I've found green tea extract to be helpful, at least for me and in combination with everything else I take. I take 1 gram daily of a 70% standardized extract.

That's a lot of stuff, but they're very basic vitamins, so it'll probably be cheap to put together an orthomolecular program that works for you. The cool thing about orthomolecular treatment of mental issues is that there's a lot of overlap--the treatment for schizophrenia is similar to treatment of anxiety, which isn't too different from what you'd use for depression. I think its because a) there are only so many vitamins floating around our bodies and b) you're working at the very basic level to improve overall health, and in so doing also improve mood, reduce psychosis, whatever.

Anyway, try this website: www.doctoryourself.com if you're at all interested in this way of handling things. Its free, the information is solid, and they have links to other sites for more information.
