5-HTP is the bomb for all these conditions. IMO works as well as the SSRIs without the side effects, and as quickly. I'd recommend starting at 50mg before bed and you can increase slowly by 50 mgs until you get up to 200. That is enough for most. Take on an empty stomach before bed. Helps you stay asleep much better. And cures those other symptoms. If on an SSRI, my experience is 5-HTP can help you get off them, but start 5-HTP very slowly and then as you increase 5-HTP, lower SSRI very slowly. This should not be construed as medical advice even if it works...
I might do that if the anxiety is zoloft and OCD -related. BUT i think it is also related to my lak of acceptance of the plae im at in my life and my age,.
I really need a supplement that keeps me calm and level. Right now after i wake up with my heart thumping like mad with all sorts of bad thoughts running through my head I've takn to popping a half pill of ambien in the late morning. I kno its slleping med but it makes me calm for a few hours, allows me to do my work and perform tasks. The other alternative for calming me down would be alcohol and i dont want that because it AGES and causes anxiety later on . I know ambien is only a temporary solution cause after two weeks it doesnt even work anymore, but hey, anything to keep myself from experiencing the hell of these emotions.
