The 5-HTP supplement has done wonders for me. I don't even need a large dose. 100 mgs does fine. Many need 200 to even 500 mgs a day. I am not completely free of issues but I can manage very well. I have been off citalopram for 3 1/2 years with just the 5-HTP. My wife did not like how I was on Celexa/citalopram or the Paxil from previous years.

I take a rescue Klonopin maybe once or twice a year.

When I get up, I take 100 mgs of 5-HTP, 200 mgs of L-Theanine, and 1000 mcgs of B-12. My GP DO doctor think that is a good morning regimen.
