   Anyone know of any good natural methods to increase your mood ? Never really checked into it. This might also help with the between cycle blues that happen. BPP IP: Logged |

standardized St. Jhons Wort is similiar in action to the SSRI's prozac, zoloft, paxil...etc. this herb has minimal side-efects and is quite therapuetic in many people........it is a prescription med in parts of europe. this would be my first choice as far as natural supps go i think i read a post in which you once said that you were using 100mg of zoloft per day. bpp......if youve quit taking this med then there is a real possibility that your mood will adversley affected. people can go threw a type of serontonin withdrawl with the cessation of SSRIs as the body has grown accustomed to 'more' serotonin available...

St. Johns Wort is supposedly an "herbal prozac". I take it sometimes and it seems to help. From what I've read, you have to take it for a month or so before you really can evaluate it and decide if it is working for you. I think this is going to be the best thing for what BPP is talking about. If it's that bad, I would start taking it about 3-4 weeks before your cycle is over to avoid the blues as much as possible. Kava Kava helps to relax me...That's great at night, but don't take it during the day or before a workout or you will be too relaxed. IP: Logged |

I recall reading somewhere that St Johns Wort shouldnt be taken post cycle b/c it will suppress your body's ability to recoup and get test production back online. I think this may have been in the piece that french guy Darkham wrote on PGF2a, dont have it with me right now but I'look when i get home. I would suggest checking this out though before starting the St johns. IP: Logged |

Ulter.....No reason other than the fact that I would not want to become dependant on anything. I can't say that I know anything about Prozac, I thought it was for allergies ! BPP IP: Logged |
