I'm currently on Effexor and can't stand the apathy and lack of motivation, so am suffering through the withdrawal symptoms with an eye toward trying some natural supplements. I would love to try Rhodiola but am wary of the estrogenic activity, as there is a history of breast cancer in my family. I have anergic depression and can't focus or pay attention to my work to save my life.
I've been looking around at various supplements and am interested in trying a multiple -- something with a B complex and amino acids as well as ginko or other herbs. I've noticed that a number of good companies, like Solgar and Source Naturals, make "brain enhancer" and "mood boost" formulas. Does anyone here have experience with any of these? Recommendations? I need something energizing. I'm somewhat wary of SJW because of the apathy I feel on SSRIs -- and I can't afford SAM-E.
Thanks!
