Anonymous asked this question on 5/6/2000:

I am having severe problems in dealing with my depression at the moment. i am not at the lowest I have been, and have been seeing a doctor, but am not willing to start taking anti-depressants again, as it would seem that this is going to be a lifelong depression. I have seen psychiatrists and counsellors and the general consensus is that my depression is simply a lack of serotonin. I am looking for alternative means to stop myself cutting myself, being an insomniac, and generally being apathetic. I also have a tendency to overdrink and have been taking quite a lot of ecstasy. I would greatly appreciate any help or advice you could offer.

There is an product out on the market called 5-Hydroxy Tryptophon that utilized the serotonin to eaesed the mood and state of of depression that you have. This would work the best for the depressive state you have.
