Alternative to anti depressants

[debbs77]

Good evening all,

I feel I have struggled for many years with feelings of depression, which often show themselves as me not feeling good enough, feeling I'm always failing etc.

But looking at maybe herbal alternatives? Not against taking anti depressants it's just trying to get a doctors appointment is so difficult.

I used 5htp. If you Google it quite alot comes up. I'm already on adhd meds (prescribed lol) so wanted something gentler so to speak for my low mood. It gives me the same relief as I experienced on prozac without the numbness, I buy it on amazon but I believe most health places sell it

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that.

I do feel some therapy would help me too, but I think dealing with low mood can help get me on the right path.

Probiotics. I think gut health is key to many of our ailments.
