Guest guest Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 Has she tried 5-HTP? I tried it for migraines, but it's also used for depression because it raises seratonin. I didn't need it for mood, but I did notice after a few weeks on it that I was more easygoing, wasn't getting upset about things that usually would bug me. However if any of her meds raise seratonin, probably shouldn't take at same time, because could lead to " seratonin syndrome.

She does not seem to be improving although prior to being put on these medications she was suicidal. How does one transition safely off these medications onto more natural methods of treating anxiety/depression? Is there anything she can use WHILE being on them? I know there are several herbs that conflict with these medications. Any advice appreciated. Joy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
