I've read a lot about Chromium helping Atypical depression so I'm giving it a try. I've taken it in the recent past and was only taking a smidge of the 200 mcg capsule at a time (25 mcg maybe). I've been taking 100 mcg per day. The first day I took it at bedtime...Was VERY depressed/anxious the next morning (hard to describe, much like an anxious depression). Day 2 took 100mcg about 2:30 again the next morning very bad, maybe worse than day 1. Day 3 and day 4 took the 100mcg GTF first thing in the morning with breakfast. Much better morning symptoms but still feeling generally worse.
I just read that Chromium may downregulate 5HT2A.
I will stay on the Chromium for a while longer to give it a chance.
Does anyone have recent experience with Chromium? Can you tell me of your experience with Chromium?
