Yes I used 5-htp for my depression. I still use it and it is amazing stuff. I didnt think I was really depressed until I used the stuff. It calms down the anxiety and put me in a better mood. It is really a miracle supplement for depression. Combine it with a b-vitamin complex and I can guarantee it will work better than any antidepressant out there. I tried tons of ssris, maoi's, and tricyclics and none worked as good as this combo. Tried st johns wort too and didnt notice a thing.

I have tried St. John's Wart - I didn't find it helpful. Exercise was more effective.

Haven't heard of centaury. I use St John's Wort and it ever so gentle changes my moods with out me even realizing it then I start singing and dancing. It's a magic herb for me!
