Yes phenylalanine has anti-depressant qualities.
It will give you a "buzz" and if you are taking dexedrine the carbonation in the soda will also increase the effect of the dexedrine.
The amino-acid phenylalanine is however contra-indicated for anxiety disorders.
Its tricky though, depression is often the cause of anxiety and a stimulant can help lift the depression and therefore ameliorate the anxiety.
However if that is not the case phenylalinine (even in the listerine strips) can induce a panic attack almost instantaneously.
And Forget the Dr's blank-stare, they can be good at those at those..one of mine said she'd never heard of anyone having withdrawl from quitting effexor!! and I know I wasn't her only patient.
If you find it does help, a protein supplement with phenylalynine is a good idea .
I get both types of anxiety and if I make the wrong choice relaxant or stimulant? it is un-fun (
