Hi Ron - no, definitely not bipolar. With me, the depression and anxiety go hand-in-hand, and when the depression lifts so does the anxiety.
I think I'll do a bit more research on 5-HTP before giving it a whirl. I've tried St John's Wort and it did nothing for me: all the studies seem to suggest it is suitable for mild to moderate depression, but unproven for anything more severe. If the anxiety symptoms become too much, I'll stick with the Oxazepam.
Yes, I'm just taking the SAM-e at the moment and will keep you posted as to how it works on its own. Thanks again for your help.
