Topic Title: 16 days on 5-htp and feeling no better
| | "16 days on 5-htp and feeling no better" , Thu 2 May 04:56
Hi I have been using 5-htp now for 16 days and I dont seem to be getting any better I am using 150 mg 1/2 hour before bed but I am waking up really anxious and that is lasting all day . I am using it for anxiety I have never felt depressed doctors have said that I do have panic disorder with no depression, anyway over the last two weeks since being on 5-htp I have felt very depressed (whether this is due to the fact that I am not getting the results I wanted or expected) Now I dont know what to do I really want it to work so I dont want to give up on it
Has anyone got any suggestions?

Try changing the time of day that you are taking it. Try first thing in the morning. How do you feel about Kava?

Maybe you should quit. 5htp did NOT work for my anxiety, only the depression. However, Kava really worked well for the anxiety.
