Anyone have any ? I just started it and already feel an energy boost. I'm hoping there are not adverse side effects coming. I felt so jazzed after 4 days that I am starting to take half the recommended dose.

Anyone have any ? I just started it and already feel an energy boost. I'm hoping there are not adverse side effects coming. I felt so jazzed after 4 days that I am starting to take half the recommended dose.
What exactly is it?
A natural anti depressant / also for joint health.
Oh, ok. Thanks, I'll look into it. :)
I'm experimenting with it ( after one appt. with this therapist who suggested it ). My main issue was ongoing exhaustion. Costco is the best place to buy. I think I'm just going to half dose the next week and see how I feel from there.
I remember another thread about depression where others mentioned this Sam-e
I've never tried it, but winter is coming and I'm going to need something to keep symptoms I feel as result of seasonal affective disorder at bay.
Is it expensive? Can it be ordered easily?
I'll report!
After a couple weeks , I feel like the 400mg I got at Costco was way too strong. I'd recommend finding 100mg online and starting there.
I have exhaustion issues around my cycle ( for 10-12 days before where earlier in my life it was just a couple days ).
My plan now is to take just 100mg 15 before my cycle starts and then a couple days into it.
Sorry if TMI but other ladies who think they may have PMDD may benefit from what I'm trying.
I'm going to run this plan by my therapist and OB.
My unique issues aside , I think those with light depression / mental fog / lethargy can greatly benefit from this natural treatment but do your research and start dosing small unless you have a larger body size.
One mood change I noticed is that I'm more impatient / confrontational . It's nothing extreme ... Just that when I was exhausted , I let a lot go simply from not having the energy to spend since it was so limited. I have to watch my behavior a little more now.
What a coincidence! I started Sam-E a few weeks ago at the full dosage. It really does boost your mood!
^ Yes. I'm actually really impressed with it. I'm known for being " resistant " to things like medicine ( other than vitamins ) and therapy also and I'm 100% glad I tried both.
Are you doing the 400mg ? For me, I noticed the feeling of " Wow, this is way too strong " about 5-6 days.
One thing to note : If you cut the pills, FREEZE the pieces. They are sensitive to humidity and will just melt apart if not frozen or in a full pill with the coating.
I'm glad for you that it is working well. Do you sleep well on it?
