Dear Max,
I sincerely hope you get to feeling better soon. Bipolar mixed states is the closest to hell on earth anyone can imagine. I know it well. You might be able to get tryptophan in Canada. It's an amino acid precursor to serotonin and acts differently than SSRI's (which I cannot take). It's helped very much with my insomnia, cured my fibromyalgia muscle pains, and is a good relaxer. It doesn't replace benzos for anxiety problems, unfortunately, but it does seem to be improving my life none the less. Just a suggestion, and a prayer that you'll emerge stonger and happier.
