The first day I took it with dinner.That was the start of awakening at night. The second and third day I took it with my three meals (that was when I had no sleep and constant surges of anxiety or a sense of excitement (I really cannot describe it) in my chest. All I can say is that since I stopped those feelings of adrenaline surges stopped and although I am taking .25mg at bedtime, I am sleeping well.
Since I do not suffer from depression and am generally a happy person with a good amount of energy (except when I push on the boundaries of my agoraphobia)I have to be careful with anything that promises to help depression. It seems I do not need need to be energized, and that's the effect I get. Increasing energy for me seems to equal increased anxiety and no sleep.
I'm just praying for this parnate to wash out so that I can begin again on St.John Wort, which did in fact help me. However, I cannot get a good answer on how long I have to wait.
I'm donating my Omega 3 to my husband who had a heart attack 12 years ago!
Thanks for your help.
