Tryptophan can be purchased on Julia Ross's website (She wrote the mood cure) and at the Health Recovery site from the woman who wrote some book about depression/anxiety free naturally. She has a clinic in the twin cities. Just a caution. My husband got totally entranced by these books/systems and by Peter Bregin and became unmercifull in his pressure to get me off the last tiny bit of paxil I took to keep from going through withdrawal.
The final withdrawal and foray into the "natural" cures have left me 15months later with a brain that is not functioning and a stomach that can no longer take the med type that worked so well for me (SSRI's). 5-htp entirely destroyed my sensitive stomach, to the point that I could no longer take prozac (which I could take before 5-htp).
For some people these supplements are a godsend, but my husbands view that they were the only answer, and these books views that these natural supplements are side effect free (Bull!) have left me without a life. Please proceed with caution. Don't trust anyone who claims to have all the answers (and that includes drug companys as well as supplement pushers)
