5-HTP for Anxiety: Is it Helping or Hurting?

There is also St. John's Wort. I didn't like the way it made me feel, but it definitely had an effect.

I'm not familiar with 5htp, but I started taking L-methylfolate before I started any psychopharmaceutical, it did help me. It turns out a lot of people are genetically deficient in the ability to methylate folic acid, which is a serotonin precursor. Start with at least 5mg.

What is serious? Anxiety pills have a small dose of tranqs in them, also I just don't like chemicals in my body

Hey, I used to take it for a short period of time, and I quickly moved to SSRIs. I respect your choice to refuse taking anti-anxiety drugs, what is the reason though?

It's herbal. That's why I was saying I won't take anxiety pills.

Oh okay, haven't heard about that. So I don't know

I said in the post. 5-htp

It's possible, but sometimes medicines can make things worse. What meds are you taking?
