Hi Frank...about two weeks ago I started taking ...SAM-e....it is alll natural and has so many benefits to taking it...THE ONLY SIDE EFFECT IS SOME PEOPLE MAY HAVE A NUSEATED TUMMY WHEN FIRST TAKING IT...as too all of the side effects of CHEMICAL anitdepressants...The brand I am taking is by Jarrow. Says to take only 2 a day but i have researched on the internet and it says up to 1,200 mg...so I am playing around with it...It is a natural molucle which EVERY LIVING THING has this...Check it out I love it!!! From what I have read you do need to be off the anti-depressants so it can start to heal you...

Good Health and God Bless!

Check with the doctor before starting SamE if you are currently on Paxil. The two can be a dangerous mix together.

Vitamin D has been used at higher doses to treat 'seasonal depression' and is now widely used for general depression. I know several people on this theory and it has worked wonders.

Good Luck!

exercise, exercise and more exercise. this has always worked best for me. supplements are good but for me nothing has worked better than exercise!

One more warning with taking SamE with panic or anxiety..........I can make it worse. I tried it and it put me thru the roof and I was on Paxil at the time. My PS Doc wanted me to try it to offset the depression I get from SSRI meds but they helped the anxiety at that time........not a good one for me ....wish you luck as you may benefit better than I did!! :wave:

good luck in your venture.....
