Elroy:
It sounds like we have some similar issues, with respect to our neurotransmitters, I mean. I primarily struggle with anxiety, panic, and OCD-like
(obsessive worrying) symptoms. As I said in the other post, I did get some relief when I took St. John's before, it was just very mild, like my experience with most non-pharmaceutical supplements. I just went off Lexpro (at 40mg/day); took it for 8 months, not really that great for me...not a very strong SSRI, in my opinion. I'm doing a little high dose fish oil experiment now, seeing if that has any effect (so far, nothing); tried some tapping/EMDR/Emotional Freedom-type stuff a few weeks before that--thought it was working, but now think it didn't do anything. If I don't get any relief off the fish oil within the next month or so, I'm probably back to exploring pharmaceuticals, thinking maybe Klonepin, maybe Luvox, don't know.
Anyway, never tried the magent stuff that mentioned, but I'm aware of it, and I've monitored people's experiences with it on this board and remedyfind.com. Seems to help some, but only for a few months at a time. I'd be willing to give it a try, if it were offered in my area (So Cal), but I don't think it is. Anyway, good luck to you.Chris
