Onion knight, yes 5-HTP is a natural serotonin effector, use thy ER type for the most benefit. It also stabilizes your appetite as well as your mood. You feel human again.
It does not work for everyone but works for most of us, has no or few side effects. I use the Natrol brand from vitacost.com

I feel human again, that is exactly it! I dont know what it would do if I was experiencing a bad depressive episode, but now I must have been suffering serotonin depletion from Effexor withdrawal since it worked so suddenly. I have natrol, but it isnt extended release.
I have the Wellbutrin, but if I continue to feel normal enough that I can function, Ill hold off on starting it. I just dont want to risk building up a tolerance so that it doesnt help when I need it.
