Re: Anxiety, depression, and more. I feel terrible.

It's difficult to say what was caused specifically by that.

After starting on Somnolin (Metagenics), which contained the Folate along with 5-HTP and some other things, I began to feel better slowly, with waves of relief followed by waves of Depression and anxiety.

A bit less than a week ago, I began taking Ceralin Forte, also from Metagenics. http://www.metagenics.com/mp/products/ceralin-forte


The first thing I noticed, even only the day after, was a mental awareness that I hadn't had before. However, a few days later, that began to go away, and I began to experience so-called 'brain fog' as well as panic attacks. At this point, I feel as though I'm cycling between the two quite a bit. Every so often, I feel ok. Every so often, I feel very anxious.

One thing I can say with certainty is that, a few days after taking Ceralin Forte, my Acne began to clear. This is surprising, because the supplement is intended to help the nervous system mostly, so I'm guessing it's mostly the methylfolate that would be helping with acne, and not any of the other ingredients. After the initial feelings of awareness and energy, I began feeling much more fatigued, which I still feel much of the time. But like I said, it hasn't even been a week.

I also realized that the orange juice I drink (I drink a lot of it, another craving of mine-- maybe for the vitamin C) is fortified with quite a bit of Folic Acid. I found some Vitamin C supplements in a cabinet in my house, which I may begin taking in place of the orange juice. Tweet
