@sue417 it is unusual for a gp to be against antidepressants. Does the gp know about the 5htp? I looked into that at one time for one of my kids. I would rather take a regulated medication that has been well-tested. Have you considered a psychiatrist or nurse psychopharmacologist? I hope you don't go on hormones!

I live alone and just fell at the side of the bed. I can relate to your situation. Hugs to you.

Hi
I have used 5htp off an on for 8 yrs it works well. There are no side effects. I would rather do it. I tried cymbalta once for my fibromyalgia. I had knee surgery and the pain was insane. It took me 9 mths to get off it. Worst experience. The homeopathic for regulating my hormone symptoms does not have any estrogen or Progesterone. My naturopath I have seen from the age of 32 i am 66. She's good . She also had breast cancer.
