Thanks Lar....I was wondering if the 5-HTP would possibly help sensitize some of the serotonin receptors again, the ones that where down-regulated by the Prozac. I know that sounds odd, but it appears much of the 'poop-out' people talk about is simply just that...down-regulation. I will keep experimenting, but just with a tiny amount...and report back.
Thanks!
