I have been taking seratonin precursors (5-HTP, a supplement) for about 4 months at a very low dosage (.3 of the "normal dose").
My chronic depression is mostly gone, but I have noticed an uptick in physiological signs of anxiety (though no mental signs).
But more importantly, my gut health is better than it has been in 12 years. I am eating more and losing weight. My energy levels have skyrocketed. My impulsiveness has catered so hard that I was worried my libido was impacted. My executive function issues and ADHD are greatly minimized.
All from a supplement. Utterly life changing.

I'll just add that there is a non zero chance that getting checked out or mentionning at least to your closed ones about what you noticed would be a net benefit in plausible futures, as thyroid issues, bipolar disorder, various endocrinoloical disorders etc could also cause what you perceive as benefits.
