I don't have any TMG on hand, but have DMG in 100 mg capsules. Would DMG (100 mg or more) be worth trying with the NADH to take away some of the edginess?

> No reason to limit dose, if you're cautious. I see no reason to be too concerned about taking it with low-dose Celexa. Or, for that matter, I see no concern adding SJW to Celexa.- Someone else also suggested SJW. I'll add that to my list of trials. I had tried it in the past, and did not get any response. But, I may have not been using a good brand or perhaps I didn't give it enough time. I had heard that it can take up to 8 weeks to get a response.
> You might do better with DLPA that tyrosine.- Good point about the DLPA. I had tried tyrosine and ended up with a bit too much nervous energy. But, at the time, I was using a very high dose from the get go (1,500 mg a day) with 1,000 mg of L-Glutamine. I am not sure which caused the nervous energy. So, if I do try the tyrosine again, I will start slow and work up and not combine it with Glutamine. With respect to the DLPA, I haven't found any in Canada. I'll have to check the Health Canada schedules again to see if it is yet another prohibited substance. If it is not prohibited, then I will order some.

- Thanks. So, I would actually stop the
omega-3s for three days, take the GLA, then re-start the omega 3s?
> Ever tried desipramine?- I have never tried desipramine. I have a lot of anxiety, and had heard that desipramine can be quite activating and may aggravate anxiety. That is why I hadn't considered it in the past.

- But experimenting can be fun, especially when the experiments can lead to better quality of life! I am about to become my my own human guinea pig!Thanks again Larry. Take care.
