effective. I'm using sjw for 2 weeks now for mild depression but I also suffer with social anxiety and this med. has done nothing for that. So I'm wondering can I add the 5-htp with it or just or use 5-htp alone. I want to know alittle more on this subject. Thanks

Hi,
I'm combining SJW with 5htp - I take 3 x 300mg SJW and 2 x 50mg 5htp spaced throughout the day. I would say it is more effective than SJW alone, though unfortunately I still get bad days, but I think that's just me.
Good Luck,
juju

stands for and how has it helped with you anxiety. My other question is what brand do you use and where you purchased it. Do you take your 1st dose of sjw and your 1st dose 5-htp together or are they at different times too. Thanks

Hi,
Sorry for delay in replying, I've been away.
I'm in the UK, the brand I take is Holland and Barratt's, which are a chain of health food stores. They contain Valerian, but previously I had some Higher Nature which I ordered off the net, and they contained B6.
My dosage is:
Morning
300mg SJW
1000mg Omega 3 oil
Lunch/afternoon
50mg 5htp
Evening
300mg SJW
Bedtime
300mg SJW
50mg 5htp
B complex
I'm thinking of increasing the 5htp as I've had a few setbacks recently which has left me feeling a bit lower than I was. Otherwise, it was starting to work really well. I could still 'think myself into' anxiety, but on the whole my days would pass without thinking/feeling too bad. I'll definitely keep going with it.
Best wishes
juju
