I'm not sure, but the word "subthreshold" could be used as a term similar to "subsyndromal"; the residual depression that exists after treatment that may not qualify for the DSM diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder.

*********Hi Scott - sorry to be dense. Just too tired to follow much. Basically - do you think it would help just 'regular' depression?I've certainly found that 5HTP & St. John's Wort helps me. Wondering if I should add this also. Do you know if it affects seratonin, as I guess using the above 2, one has to be careful regarding seratonin.
thx Kath
