Have you tried 5-HTP? Does it work?

I worked in the health store sector for over five years and lot of my customers bought 5-HTP. I tried it once and found it did make me feel somewhat relaxed. The people that seemed to really need it where people with manic or deep depression as a result of misfiring neurons etc.. Basically folk who tried other stuff and felt nothing at all that most people felt relief from, seemed to really feel the HTP. Used for horses as a tranquilizer in pure form, can be powerful for some apparently.Yes. No.Really I didn't take it long enough to notice an effect. A better solution is take positive action in finding solutions for your depression. Don't wait for a magic herb to change your life. It won't.i took it and didn't notice anything different. i was taking it to help me sleep.
