Hey guys, I recently made a 1 gram tryptophan and 1 gram phenylalanine drink mixed with a bottle of water and this KILLED my anxiety. I have been analyzing my thoughts a lot lately and notice a lot of my anxiety comes from bad thoughts about things in my life. I then get flustered and then my anxiety kicks in. This is negative thinking and I think linked to depression. So there is a strong depression and anxiety link here. This drink should be typically used for depression (tryptophan makes serotonin and phenylalanine makes dopamine) but it did both. The drink made me very happy and thus not depressed and thus I did not have anxiety.
I should note that I have severe anxiety that put me out of work for several years and I was hospitalized for it. Thus if it works for me it could work well for others as well.
