5HTP is considered a natural mood enhancer - it's clinically proven to raise serotonin levels in the brain - as it is also proven to work as an appetite suppressant
hope this helps

If you are feeling withdrawl symptoms, you should call your doctor and let him/her know- you may be weaning too quickly. And you should never take anything else without their knowlege. Good luck.
