> Thanks for the idea on the SSRIs--I'll suggest she give Prozac (or maybe Luvox) a try, as I've heard it's the most activating of them. Thanks also for the theanine suggestion--I'm also a bit of a fan of it. Unfortunately, it happens that it doesn't seem as effective for her (she tried it on my suggestion), but I do think it's a fine, inoffensive thing to try before things like benzos. Glad other people are on to it.

> Thanks for your suggestions!Rosavin is another herb similar in efficacy to Suntheanine for me. It just relaxes me in general. It's perhaps a bit milder than Suntheanine, but might work for your friend to make things just a little better.
