Broke. Can't decide between L-Tryptophan, 5-HTP, L-Tyrosine, or Mucuna pruriens. Where should I start? (Depression)

I currently am taking caffeine + l-theanine, fish oil, and rhodiola rosea. The fish oil and caffeine/theanine are great and not going anywhere. The effects of Rhodiola were GREAT at first, but have since disappeared. I'm afraid to go off it though, because I think that it is helping me, I just am used to it now? I'm not sure. I started taking it for mild depression and low energy. I have had a very hard time getting out of bed in the morning, and I have done some research on L-Tryptophan and 5-HTP, which supposedly help you sleep and have you feeling better in the morning. The mucuna I am interested in because of the L-Dopa. And lately, I've been seeing alot about L-Tyrosine when I am looking up L-Tryptophan, but I'm not sure exactly what it does.
Here is the kicker: I am broke af. If I could add only ONE of the above supplements, what would you guys recommend? I am leaning towards L-Tryptophan.

Send me your name and address, and I will send you a bottle of tianeptine to try out. Depression sucks.
