There is some research to suggest that sudden increase of serotonin can effect your mood.
Why do large meals with loads of carbs make you feel better, because they acutely increase serotonin.
As well it has been shown that tryptophan depleation very rapidly causes relapse back into depression. Especially if your mood problems seem to be cyclical or hormonally based.
I know of a few people just need antidepressants to get them through their time of the month.
People think that I am crazy but I felt emmediate antianxiety effects from taking SSRI's.
