Thanks for your reply. I might try the lower dose again and go extremely slow. I actually have 5htp capsules that I bought but was too scared to try. Do you if this is as safe as St. John's Wort?

I was on the lookout for a number of adverse effects including serotonin syndrome, but the combination actually goes together very well. Not suggesting you do the same, but just wanted you know that I am familiar with the feelings you described and wanted to share what works for me.
