It's a snowball effect.

If you give your body the nutrients it's needs, you can function. And no one has a prozac deficiency. If you think meds are so effective, read peoples' posts about how bad off they are. It's because their brain doesn't have what it needs to be able to produce the neurotransmitters so you feel normal. Would you blame someone with diabetes for needing insulin? Of course not, but you think taking amino acids so your brain can produce neurotransmitter is nuts. Why? Because the Pdocs would go out of business if all a depressed person had to do was take the right supplements instead of sit in their office once a week for the rest of their life at $100 a visit. Follow the money....

I really don't appreciate your attitude. I'm doing just fine on two meds. I'm not drugged up. I'm not sedated. And I am stable. I highly doubt amino acids would stabilize me as much as these meds have. So plenty of people do just fine on medication. You can't say that everyone does terrible on medication. And although I'm sure amino acids work for you, everyone is different. Just because it works for you doesn't mean it will work for everyone. I tried to treat my BP naturally and it didn't do ****, in fact one of the supplements made it even worse. So please, stop acting like you have found some sort of cure. By the way, are you a doctor? If you are, great, but if not, spending time on the Internet does not qualify you to be making all these statements.
