Questionable legality...

[matrixrefugee]

I went looking at the local pharmacy for kava-kava, which like valerian root, is supposed to be good for depression. Two very nice, helpful clerks came to my aid as I hunted through the nine bzillion different vitamin and herb supplements... and lo and behold, I spotted three bottles of 5-HTP. I bought one, and I'm planning to buy the other two tomorrow, thus stock-piling it while I work on finding the kava-kava as well as looking into some of the other suggestions you folks sent. Just took a caplet and I'm feeling more like myself already.

This sure makes up for cutting my finger at work on someone's dumb paper bags. Unfortunately, it has to be my righrt index finger that;s now bandaged, which is making my typing even more erratic than usual. Ah well, the bandages'll be off in a day or two.

Unless it was actively recalled (for safety reasons, product tampering or whatever), then I doubt it's illegal to buy something that's still on the shelf– it falls under the store's liability, not the consumer's. I'd recommend trying to find an actual herb/health supplement/'hippy' store (nothing against hippies– I was born in a commune myself) to get more, I'm sure they'd know how to do it.
