I have tried several brands of 5htp and there is definitely a difference. I can just feel it in my body. Lifetime has a 100 mg variety that I have gotten through stayleaner.com for a very good price. The other brand I've liked is Natrol. Some varieties are paired with B6, which they say aids it's effectiveness. I'm not sure, but it might be worth a try.I definitely was helped by 5htp-it does take a while. For sure give it another week. It took the edge off the buzzed up anxious feelings and it also improved my sleep. I really have nothing bad to say about it. I was just wondering if the tryptophan would be an even bigger boost to feeling "normal".
Do you feel sleepy when you take it during the day? I always took my whole dose at night because I was concerned it would make me feel drowsy during the day. I hope it kicks in for you in a bigger way! blessings, baba-loo
