Sam-e or Vitamin b for depression and nerves?

Question

For the past year and a half my nerves, stress, and depression have been getting worse. Going to my doctor, he said that I could try something natural first. I decided to take Sam-e with a vitamin b supplement. Now, I feel like I'm not as emotional as I use to be. I liked being emotional, but without the nerves and stress. I don't seem to care about things as much as I use to. It's not a huge difference, but I still don't feel as much like myself. Would a supplement of just vitamin b help my depression without messing with my emotions and such?

Answer 1

for anxiety: GABA, St John's Wort, and Valerian. For depression: DHEA, D,L-phenylalanine, Fish oils, B50 complex, Gingko biloba, 5-HTP, Inositol, Phosphatidyl serine, and tyrosine. Methylcobalamin and Pyridoxyl-5-phosphate also might be worth a try. I always recommend a good multiple vitamin-mineral and a calcium-magnesium supplement too.
Good luck!

Answer 3

cut back on the sam-e a little. The idea is to keep your emotions balanced. That way you aren't a yo- yo with really high highs and low lows. Also I would try seeking a therapist... talk therapy has helped many with this mild depression.

Answer 4

I think you have too much time on your hands thinking about this. The most natural thing to do is exercise. One hard hour a day. That will cure most depression....
