Is 5htp by a reputable company safe to take daily? i'm trying to determine what can help with ssri withdrawal. sam-e useful as well? thanks

Check with your doc: Check in with your prescriber. Why are you having SSRI withdrawal symptoms? In the US, supplements are not regulated by the FDA, so safety is NOT 100% reliable for anyone consuming over the counter supplements, unfortunately. You can check CPSC to see if there are any issues with the products. https://www.fda.gov/Food/DietarySupplements/UsingDietarySupplements/ucm109760.htm
