SAMe
I was wondering if anyone has had any luck with SAMe. I'm on topa and taking all the supplements, I'm always exhausted and on the depressed side. I just started prozac, but am really interested in SAMe and wondering if it will really lift my mood and give me that energy that I desperately need.I want to order it from the mwo site, but as always money is a factor, but if this works I'll go for it. I can't go on feeling like this. Thanks to anyone who has inputTags: None

There have been many threads and many posts on this subject in this forum. If you do a search you will get lots of info. One thing you will find out quick is that if you are bipolar, it will turn you into a maniac (in other words, stay away from it). I did a lot of research on it and there is a considerable amount of evidence, not just anectdotal but from a number of real scientific studies, that it helps many people more than anti-deps. I wish I was one of them, but I tried it and became a maniac, thereby confirming one doctor's suggestion that I am bipolar. SO I recommend you pursue it, but just do so carefully.Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life... And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Mar, as Beatle said, there are many other threads on this topic, not just 5htp but other ideas for beating depression. Read all that you can find. I solved my depression issues with supplements but never used SAMe. There are options - research and find what may be best for you.FINALLY -- I'm a non-drinker!!

Go back and look up the post/thread about Lithium Orotate, its great, and a natural supplement, I took it then just thought I was "cured" and stopped taking it, big mistake....its great for cravings, and its a great mood stabilizer and just chills you out... its a mineral salt, not to be confused with Rx lithium...we own a pharmacy, and I just hear too many complaints about AD's, prozac seems to make lots of folks tired, esp. in the early afternoon, and kills the sex drive, ditto some of the others....so I got my bottle back out and started it again...we have it at our pharmacy, the Dr. formulated brand....I'll post the website too....SamE sure helped my daughter during mood swings, PMS, etc...so I'd endorse it also, just get the best pharm. grade you can! Opps, the supp. doesn't have a website on it....Google search Dr. Hans Nieper, M.D. of Hanover, Germany....Advanced Research brand.... Hope that helps...remember, that's coming from someone who makes a living selling Rx's....lol...."Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending"

Hi marlxoxo,
SAMe has been a Godsend for me! I have been on anti deps in the past but too many side effects. I was dubious about trying it but was willing to try anything. I was amazed how good I feel on it and it only took about a week to take affect. If I had let my depression progress to a worse stage I don't know if it would have worked as well. But I am on it and don't want to take a chance by going off it. Everybody else it right about doing your research though as only you will know if it's right for you.
I don't know where you live but in Australia where I am we can't get it without it costing the earth and in correct strength. I buy it here and it's great!

I second ToughIT's suggestion about lithium orotate. It is natural, non-RX, and really relaxes you and evens out moods, with no side effects (except sleepiness sometimes-- better to take smaller doses in daytime and larger doses at night).
But, as see here, and from my research, SAMe works great for many people (I know some) and there is lots of scientific evidence to back up its anti-depression properties.
Let us know how you get on.Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life... And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

And btw, lithium orotate is far cheaper than SAMe. And it doesn't have to be refrigerated either, unlike SAMe.Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life...

Thank you for all the suggestions, I will look into it all. I was hoping that SAMe would give me energy and that would make me feel much better. Being tired all day is depressing in it's self. Will let you know what I found out and how it works. Thank you all sooooo much again.
