I wanna try some 5-HTP supplements to try and alter my mood for the better.
Which one of these do I want though?

http://www.nutricentre.com/p-43392-5-htp-50mg-natural-source.aspx

http://www.nutricentre.com/p-43076-5-htp-complex.aspx

I chose that site because the doctor gave me his registration code to get 25% discount. If you know of any better 5-HTP supplements for depression though, please suggest them. Money is no object (within reason).

I live in the UK by the way.


EDIT:
Alternatively theres this:

Which I could get tomorrow from town.

Have you tried the site 'healthspan'? Normally they have great offers on 5HTP.

You could also check out 'Boots' as they often have the 3 for 2 offers on vitamins etc.

I wouldnt buy the ones from Holland and Barrets tbh - try and find pills that contain Vitamin B as this helps with the absorbtion of the 5HTP.

Good luck :)
 
I checked out healthspan and bought their happy days 5-HTP. They seemed to get great reviews and I couldnt be arsed to shop around for anywhere else cheaper. Thanks!

Its a great site - I've used them for years and never had a problem :)

For run of the mill stuff its worth checking boots for the 3 for 2 offers they do - multivitamin / Vitamin C etc.

I hope your feeling better soon - When you first get them try them before you goto bed as some people can feel sleepy after taking them. Not sure if you use MDMA but just incase you do, dont mix the two together as it can cause a lot of problems and be quite dangerous (no offence meant).
 
I used MDMA a couple of times, but whether it was the pills or my depression or just my general weird body chemistry they didn't do a lot for me.
Thanks for the advice.
