Things I think to be aware of: First, serotonin syndrome. Be aware of the symptoms and be on the lookout. Second, things might get confusing? Which ingredient is causing which side effect? Which ones are working and which ones are useless? Which ones to tweak, and when? I just think it could get confusing. Since you prefer the alternative approach, could I suggest maybe starting with one ingredient and adding in a new one every two weeks or so? And in the end, if all else fails, go prescription? Sometimes what looks good on paper doesn't work. Chemistries and results are impossible to predict. I think adding in the ingredients one at a time will allow you to feel its benefits (or lack of) and side effects before clouding the picture with another one. Except for serotonin overload and possible confusion managing the ingredients, it does seem like a good cocktail in theory. Wish you well.
