Comment:
I was prescribed this supplement for mood: anxiety and depression. I took one 200 mg pill in the AM and 1 200 mg pill in the evening. I could NOT go to sleep and it felt like i was on a caffeine rush. i would lie in bed for 3-4 hours and not be able to sleep. Had to take a sleeping pill each night. Gave up Sam-e after 1 week of sleepless nights.

I have severe seasonal disorder. This works great. I take 200mg in the summer and two 200 mg in the winter (one in the morning and one in the evening). This resolved my depression better than any prescription I have taken. I have felt no adverse side-effects.

Comment:
Tried this for natural mood and anxiety help. I started with 200mg but did not find it effective. Got much better results with the 400mg. I found it very helpful once I found the right dose.
