Thompson's Mood Support Questions & Answers

I used and was in support of Thompson's Mood Manager. They changed their formula and called it Thompson's Mood Support, It no longer helped me. Speak with a chemist/ local pharmacist or your doctor. kind regards Zeff

HI Deborah B. I used to take mood manager. It was great. Mood support is different

From what I understand they found it difficult to find SAMe that was stable.

You can buy it in America. What if they broke the product down into two parts separating the SamE to be then taken with the remaining ingredients to make up the original product

no too hard

Thompsons mood support is available in Australia, however this product has not worked for me. Thompsons mood manager worked very well for me for many years, iit was replaced with mood support, and is no longer available. I am not aware if it is available beyond Australia. You'll have to do a search. Barbara, I searched the different active ingredients included in Mood Manager now left out of Mood Support and found the use of them was recently restricted due to long term dangers to the body. I was also bummed by the loss of the only product that has worked for me. Good luck Rgds Zeff

Hi Zeff 1, my thoughts exactly....and mood support is not a suitable substitute....different ingredients also contains St Johns wort which can interact negatively with other medications.I found Mood Manager excellent. I have found another supplement with the same ingredients so heres hoping it works as well. Rgds Barbara V.

Barbara, Which alternative brand have you tried with same ingredients and has it worked for you?

Big question Depends on what rype of meds you are on, tje strength of dose and how long you have been on antidepressant s. My general experienc suggests you speak to a GP who knows your circumstance about your current meds but well qualified naturpath or similar about mood manager. In short ,yes, probably, with caution and consultation.

Ademetionine disulfate tosylate 388mg, Equiv. (S) - S - adenosylmethionine 150mg, Tyrosine 12.5mg, Pyridoxine hydrochloride 25mg, Equiv. Pryidoxine (vitamin B6), Cyanocobalamin 50mcg, Folic Acid 90mcg, Fish oil natural 500mg, Equiv. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), Equiv. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)

Ohhh please check with your GP about that... I take it for menopause, so it has never been an issue for me.

Hi. I have taken antidepressants and read up some on samE the major ingredient in Mood Manager. My son takes and appreciates the positive effect on his well being and ability to perform in life generally. I am NOT any authority on this and what I offer is my personal layman's opinion. I could imagine it could/would assist but cannot be taken with other antidepressant pharmaceuticals. I suggest you doing some reading, join a forum, see a well experienced Naturpath (Sp?) or similar and of course a broadminded GP. I would like to say go for it but in view that you note "severe" depression, me thinks you need professional assistance and the reason you cannot take antidepressants is not clear. GOOD FORTUNE. My rule to myself on this subject broadly is :Keep Good Company! :)

No, unfortunately mood manager does assist with severe depression. My son's pschologist started him on mood manager along with therapy to see if it could help, but it had minimal effect. He had to be then prescribed a stronger pharmaceutical antidepressant medication which made such a positive difference in his life. However everyone is different. Best wishes.

There is no mention on the label against using Mood Manager if you are pregnant. It only states that people using prescription anti-depressants or have bi-polar should refrain from it's usage. MM is a natural product and containing basically vitamins, fish oil and Sam-E. You never know, you might end up with a really cheerful baby!

I think you should give it a try. It gave me a sense of well being, like everything feels fine. Maybe it will help you plus it is better to try this before going onto prescription meds. I dont think it is useful for acute anxiety... i used different medication as the acute incidents occured, this is more for long term feeling of calm. If you dont notice any differences after a couple of weeks then go onto your anxiety meds. Good luck.

Hi Kaz, Only the bottle of 30's is being discontinued . I have just started taking them . I have read some great reviews . Here's hoping they help !

I started out on 2 a high dose of 2 morning and 2 night, felt great within 3 days, i now take 1 morning & night and probably will forever. I wonder if you are taking anything else that might conflict with this? Its not good to be on anti depressants at the same time.

Many thanks for your reply to my question Nola. No I'm not taking anything else and feeling a wee bit better today so will carry on with them!

Do you think it will help with mood swings I’m 34 had a tubal ligation and it has ruined me my period is all over the place and my mood is not normal please help

Gosh, I almost forgot about this site....unfortunately I didn't have much luck on this particular product. I ended up being subscribed something from Doctors and all good now - hang in there and you may not think so but it DOES get better :)
