Thanks to all who designed this site which i fortunately stumbled across in my search this evening.
If only there were more sites with unbias, clear concise information with well put together links to the relevant subject; then the internet would be a truly remarkable place.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!
I really thought I was loosing my mind. You are not kidding, they are so very bad! I have been taking your advice! Today I am feeling better! The migranes are pretty much gone, one every once in awhile and I can control it with IBPro. The dizziness is all I have left, and even that is MUCH better, and only if I move my head too quickly. The weakness is MUCH better also!!! I am still
getting tired early but NOTHING like it was a few days ago! I know you said that you are not a doctor, well, if anything you are a GOD sent to us all! Not even my doctor would give me such advice as yourself, and it WORKS, and is still getting better! GOD bless you! I really felt so very bad! Now in just a short amount of time Im feeling MUCH better! THANKS SO MUCH FOR ANSWERING SO QUICKLY! REALLY YOU ARE A GOD SENT!
Thanks again and again,
Michele

I have read through most of your web site. I enjoyed the reading and found logic in many of your statements. Sometimes, though, the mind's focus becomes instantly centered on the very smallest of things which, in turn, happens to address the most substantial of things. I speak to your simple statement on your home page, where you say "God bless, if he exists". I say, you are right on.

Keep up the good work.

Helpful site. The best info is before a dr. starts a pt. on Paxil, serotonin levels should be measured--but they never are.

I have been on Paxil for several years and recently have become a vegan and decided to quit gradually. I am now down to 1/2 pill every other day and am beginning to feel more myself--connected and not so spacey.

Thanks for this site--it's hard to find.

---------------------------------

thank you so much for your time! It is not common these dasy to find someone willing to give this kind of advice, just out of the kindness of their hearts and concern for others!!!!

----------------------------------

Well, thanks for your time and fast response. You are very informative for a 24 year old. Just stay away from that nuclear stuff...

----------------------------------

Sorry to contact you here, i tried to email you on your hotmail account, but it bounced back- anyhow this is just a note in regards to your 5-HTP site. Sorry for the bother but.......

I truly believe in giving credit where credit is due, and you require more than just that. I am no stranger to alternative medicine having helped my sister recover from Hodgkin’s (without the need for chemo) and myself, a past sufferer of lung disease. So for seven years I emersed my self in all that there was surrounding alternative healing, diet, supplements etc. More recently I’ve been suffering from severe (what I believe to be bipolar depression), which no doubt stems from a long history of oral steroid use (prednisone) and designer drugs. It all finally came toppling down on me years after I had left prescription and non-prescription drug use behind. My intense knowledge of healing left me ridiculously annoyed at all the possible avenues. Now, as a graduate student, my research has reiterated my frustration as it constantly reminds me of the injustices associated with powerhouse corporations and countries. In the end I began to self- destructive. My body soon !
became emancipated, which gave my friends and family the push to immediately request that I start taking medication. I had received the same advice by several doctors (I saw many since I had hoped that just one could offer some more uplifting advice) and the only answer was to be saved by anti-depressants. I, of course, felt differently and knew that there was no need to alter my state of mind in such a synthetic manner, just because the billion-dollar industry has gained enough power and brainwashed enough people to believe so.

I knew instead that my serotonin levels must have been super depleted from my history. So I decided to turn to 5-HTP a few days. As well I needed some background info, which is where your website came in to the picture. I thought it was great to see someone so dedicated to opening up people’s perspectives surrounding, not only the lucrative drug companies, but also to one’s own heath and well being. I appreciate the vast array of information and references that your offer. For the last while I really started to doubt my own capacity to reason about my health since it became overwhelming how many people offered the same advice- that anti-depressants were the ONLY way to a full recovery [I kept thinking- but at what expense?]. I was made to feel as though my judgment to avoid taking anti-depressants was clouded by my depression. AHHHHHH I was almost truly going to go crazy. So thanks for offering that much needed support, that has kept me strong and helped me continue!
on my path to a more natural way of healing.

----------------------------------

When I researched about Paxil withdrawal, I have to admit that I thought some of it was in my head. It was more convenient to think that. After finding out that there are so many sufferers like me out there, it had some comfort. The part that does make me mad though, is the fact that there are so MANY of us!!! I am down to my last decrease this week, and hopefully the light at the end of the tunnel, is back on!!
I will take your advice about the vitamin B, and the exercise. I'll start walking, I guess. Baby steps! It feels like I should go slow, because over a month ago, you couldn't get me to leave my house.

Thank you for taking the time to respond to my comment. I didn't expect it, but what a welcome surprise.
----------------------------------

And thank you again for probably being the one to keep me from taking lexapro which was prescribed by my doctor before recommending a natural alternative first.

-----------------------------------

WOW!!! Thank you Aaron!!!
I am looking into the books listed on your site as well as the supplements and HTP. I have read before that these are a great way to go and your e-mail solidified that. Since I have been exercising regularly for a few weeks now, I decided it was a perfect time to end the meds. I was just very upset with your response to my weight loss question!!! Shoot, it came on by itself!!! It should go away by itself also!!! LOL!!! Anyway, thank you for taking the time to respond. I sincerely appreciate it!

-----------------------------------

Thank you so very much for your helpful website. God does exist and God bless you. You are
a very compassionate and understanding person. If any tragic event has ever helped to create
your depression, I am deeply sorry about it happening. I hope and believe you will continue to
find comfort, happiness, consistancy and joy.

------------------------------------

I have found your website informative and even enjoyable...I wish that I read some of it before I began taking lexapro(the new craze for 'doctors' to prescribe)

------------------------------------

Your funny, I like your war on drugs thing. Your honesty about the Navy. Your going to do good in life.

------------------------------------

I found your site to be very enlightening and enjoyable. I hope I have successfully 'defeated' depression..but I'm not so sure..from time to time I will have reoccuring feelings of hopelessness and of being mentally exhausted...I will try some of the natural antidepression substances you mentioned and tell you how it went, if I can remember to..
I am aware that I am a complete stranger, but if you want you can e-mail me and I can tell you more of how my depression has been going or answer any question you might have. I'd really like to be able to help gain understanding about depression and antidepressants, for my own reasons.
