summerreading Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 I've posted so many times here about anxiety asking for help I thought I'd post something that's working for me in hopes to help someone else. I picked up OLLY Goodbye Stress gummy supplements at Target, and they work very well for insomnia caused by ruminating and intrusive thoughts. Also helpful if you have caffeine too late. I eat 2 and my mind clears and fall asleep quick. It has lemon balm, GABA and L-theanine. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

summerreading Posted July 5, 2017 Author Share Posted July 5, 2017 (edited) Do you happen to know if these are safe to take while on an SSRI? I am not entirely sure. It may depend on what you are taking and how much. I did research on each ingredient and to me, it seemed fine. Lemon Balm is an herb and GABA and L-theanine are amino acids. The serving size is 2, and I took just 1 for a little bit to test it out. If you ask your doc, they will probably say no. None of my doctors like to discuss natural stuff. I am weaning off zoloft over several months. I am down to 25 mg and I have been taking these almost daily. The SSRI side effects are stressing me out, so I'd like to try natural solutions now. I am also taking a multivitamin, an Omega 3-6-9, Native Remedies Triple Complex Brain Tonic (mineral salts), and dissolvable B12 to help support weaning. I think it is helping. Yesterday I forgot my dose and didn't feel the flu-like withdrawal feeling until 12 hours had passed. I still felt awful but it took a lot longer to show up. I'm not advising you, just sharing my own experience. Please research too. Edited July 5, 2017 by summerreading 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
