I think perhaps why the Niacin wasn't working in my regimen is that I was using 250mg everyday. At a lower dosage, say 50mg per day along with other B vitamins, my depression might get better. For sure, the Niacin helps depression. I've seen this in myself time and time again. I just thought that maybe 250mg per day is too much for my body to handle. A lower dose may be warranted in my case. Niacin is purported to help quite a bit with depression, anxiety, and schizophrenia, but I think one has to adjust the dosage according to what you can tolerate. Some tolerate very high dosages, some only need a small dosage. At any rate, don't give up on Niacin if it helps you. It's a remarkable vitamin.
