I weaned off of ssri's a week ago, tapered onto 5htp at the same time, have tried both tyrosine and dlpa mixed in, and I swear these things are just not doing it. They keep me just about a finger nail's thickness above the crying spells.
50mg 5htp 3 times a day. DLPA 500mg twice a day. Tyrosine 1000mg I couldn't hardly even feel anything from it. Have been on 1000mg omega3 for a long time.Ssri's didn't work, and neither are these aminos. They're about the same in efficacy as far as I can tell.
Most books and people report that if amino acids are going to help, they should feel it as early as the first day or within a week. Obviously longer is better. But it's been a week, and nothing. I'm afraid to go higher in doses. Any comments from experience or knowledge with these supplements?
