Rhodiola & Antidepressants

[artur]

well im slowly trying to get of my anti depressants. I currently use Effexor and have about two more months before im done. im a bit obsessed with supplements and mood boosters. i have a whole list of what i am going to start taking after im done those peice of **** anti-d's. anyways i started playing around with rhodiola: NOW 500mg at 3% rasovons which gives you 15mg worth per pill. i read that a normal dose needed of rasovins per day is 10-20 mg. so i started taking one pill day. i feel more social but extremely lethargic. i am guessing this is because rhodiola creates more seratonin and SSRI's keep them flowing in your brain. So i might be getting too much seratonin floating in my brain. i read a post before on here that someone was warning people about combining SJW with rhodiola. they said they became extremely tired as well. SJW acts much as an SSRI because it inhibits seratonin. so im guessing rhodiola makes me tired because i have to much serotonin floating in my brain due to the SSRI. if anyone has any experience with combining SSRI's with rhodiola, please post your opinions. Also anyone that has any SAMe experience, please post it to since i ordered 4 months worth for when i get of my anti's

Kelly great site. But please make a SAMe forum because it is also a popular and pretty amazing antidepressive comound. thank you
