Hi everyone,
Just wondering if anyone has had any luck with natural remedies? I was using Bach Flower Remedy, but it's a pretty quick helper at reducing immediate anxiety, but doesn't last very long?

Hi! My dr. suggested 5-htp so I got some from her and have been taking it for about 6 months. Has helped with the anxiety and I take a very low dose. She also monitors my serotonin levels. Hope that helps!

I've tried a few different things, probably not long enough, (5-htp, gaba etc..) but the one thing that I stuck with and took continuously was St. Johns Wort and I swear by it. A few years ago I was on an antidepressant that did work for me (paxil) but my weight gain and other side effects were my main reason for getting off. Then I tried the herb st. johns and felt even better than the paxil.
