Hi everyone,
Firstly just to say hello (I'm new here) and to say I hope I can be of some help. I'm also looking forward to reading some of the threads and to learn how others are fairing.
I suffer from something called seperation anxiety. This is caused when someone close to me leaves/is away from me, even for short periods of time. I've suffered this all of my life.
Last year was probably the worst anxiety I've ever experienced and I desperately needed to sort it, before it sorted me!
I looked at natural remedies, as I'm oposed to taking anti-anxiolitic drugs. After careful consideration and some trial and error, I have come up with a regime that works for me.
I must stress everyone is different, but this regime works for me and has reduced my anxiety levels by 80%, which compared to what it was, is fantastic for me. I can now run my life relatively smoothly and on top of that I am now benefiting from psychotherapy, which is also contributing to improving me.
I take all of the following products on a daily basis:
Theanine tablets/capsules (This is a natural compound found in tea)
Kava Kava capsules (There is debate over health issues of
this product, as to whether or not
it can cause liver damage. Hence, you
you wont find this product in the shops,
only on the net)
Seredyn capsules (also contains Theanine)
(can only purchased on the net)
Celexil capsules (These contain HTP5 and St John's Wort)
(Also only available on the net)
I should make a few points here. It takes about two weeks of continuous use to see any appeciable effect, so don't stop taking them and take them regularly (daily). Stop taking them and I've seen my anxiety return within 48 hours. So keep taking them!
I realise of course, that this is an expensive regime, but for those of you that can afford to do it, all I can say is that it's helped me big time. I've put these products at the top of my budget, as my quality of life has improved dramatically and that's important above all else! I shoukd also say that I am a six foot male with medium frame, so smaller people to me, may find they need less dosage, so saving money.
Dosage:
Theanine 2 tablets/capsules twice daily (morn and night)
Kava Kava 2 capsules twice daily (morn and night)
Seredyn 2 capsules two to three times (morn/eve/night)
daily
Celexil 4 capsules daily (morn)
I hope this imformation is of use to anyone reading it.
please feel free to reply or message me...
