Im sure youll get a LOT of responses,samE is presented as a HUGE alternative nutrient for depression,right beside st johns wort,only with samE being a nutrient over a herb.
Personaly i found samE to be one of the hardest hitting alternatives on the WALLET,aside from that,and aside from the successes which im sure exsist im just not aware of them,i know samE is notorious for creating some maniac phases that start out seemingly as a mood lift.
