Therapy is great; not doubt about it; if you can find the right therapist, and either have great insurance or a lot of money.
I see a lot of substances mentioned on the alternative board: 5htp, Calcium, magnesium, Niacin, Argenine, Kava-Kava, Green Tea, Cystein, Chromium Picolinate, B-6, B-12, etc.
We don't have to be that rigid. We can talk about alternative "medications" on this board too. We're talking abstractly about them. The big picture in terms of what's out there, not details about them.
A lot of people on this board are saying the standard pharma meds doesn't work for them and I think Scott has a point that an evaluation of alternatives is a subject that needs airing on the board that everyone goes to.
for instance, therapy was brought up, and I think that was a great thought. we tend to forget that as an alternative.
BTW - I can attest that Niacinamide is a great sleep aide for me.
