Francesco, is the L-Tyrosine still helping the derealization feeling? I just wanted to check before I run to the health food store :)

> Hi Tealady, just to say that I found by accident l-tyrosine useful for the same purpose you mentioned. I didn't realize my problem could be 'derealization' but since I started Parnate and Trifluoperazine about one month ago (I quit them after five or six days) what I'm experiencing fits very well with this disturb. Is it an anxiety disorder ? I'm asking because I don't feel anxious just confused, and sometimes I have period of blank mind, never mind where I am or what I'm doing. It's awful because I've never been had this kind of sensation, it's the first time in my life, and the only thing that can explain it are my recent (short) trials of meds.
