> My layman’s opinion is that when my serotonin/dopamine balance tilts toward low dopamine, I experience anhedonia, anergy, low motivation, etc. Conversely, when my dopamine gets out ahead of my serotonin, I get irritable and anxious. SAM-e and ENADA NADH are both dopaminergic and perhaps, over time they shift my serotonin/dopamine balance too far toward the dopamine side of the equation. I don’t have a clue why it would take five months for the shift to occur. In retrospect, I wonder if I could have solved the irritability side effect by adding tryptophan.
Or maybe taking ENADA NADH and SJW concurrently?
BTW, I think Mg + TMG (+ methionine too in some cases, like vegans/vegetarians) might be in effect "SAM-e on a budget" for some people.
