I have these little white pills since 2 years under my bed and from time to time I take them for very very short periods of time, mostly if I dont have 5-htp right now and I want to experiment how my mood changes.
I stop taking them usually after 3-4 days, mostly because of this foggy head which I dont like at all. And Im scared of getting addicted to them.
My number 1 antidepressant is 5-htp and sometimes I combine that with methylphenidate for energy and motivation boost.
Well 5-htp is great for anxiety, in fact it works lil bit like xtc for me and in combination with methylphenidate its really nice better that any drug I would say because no rebound or so.
Actually I get sometimes maniac and throwing out money or forgetting all problems but thats because Im taking a high dose.
But Im doing breaks of methylphenidate because I noticed that the tolerance gets up quite fast so Im doing a cycle of 2-3 Weeks on and 2-4 weeks off, but this since one year or so.
Right now Im also doing a 1-week break of 5-htp due and I noticed that I need it because I get sad and a very pessimistic person which I dont like and which I havent been since 2 or 3 years.
But im not sure.
What I actually expect of lexapro is that what I expect from methylphenidate namely and 5-htp a drive to do things and decreased anxiety.
I have more problems with drive than anxiety.
I guess an SSRI is more efficient because I have a steady state sero level and 5-htp is more up and down ?
On the other hand I realized that Antidepressants are just things which can build a bridge but when I dont change something it does not matter which kind of pills Im taking ?
I know why I have so called "depression" namely because of my state of doing NOTHING (no job, no school and so on) but I am not sure if a pill will chang that and I guess Im expecting that.
