I could use something like this also (inherited depression from *both* sides of the family tree -- suicide is the number one killer in the last three generations). Unfortunately since it is a "party" drug, that makes it *very* difficult to get legally in the US. And I'm not about to try for an illegal version; not only could I get into deep sh*t, I worry enough about the quality of *legal* drugs. :( -- D. Jay Newman !
