Re: anxiety

[Guest guest]

I've had tremors in my hands for about 5 years now. It's quite

embarassing actually because people always point it out to me.

Especially when i try to hand them things. I haven't been able

figure out what causes it, i've had CT's for migrains done and

they've looked at those but haven't found a cause. I've noticed that

my anxiety has been coming on with no reason lately as well. I'm not

scared or confused or thinking about anything in particular when it

happens. I take Trazadone at night to help me sleep, it's the only

antidepressant that i'm on right now. I don't take any other happy

pills because i've had 2 manic reactions to them, so I " VE decided i

can't take them. At least for right now. When I do have anxiety

attacks i've found that all i can do is have someone with me and

wait for them to pass. That's all i can think of. I'm sorry that you

are dealing with them. They are quite scary, even if you get them

frequently. The feeling of not having control is horrible.

My 6 year old son was on Nordic Naturals cod liver oil for years but

still suffered from fairly severe anxiety. For him, going on an amino

acid formula that was compounded specifically to his needs was the key.

He still experiences situational anxiety, but the overall level has gone

down dramatically.

IS DMG and GABA good for anxiety?

I've been told it has helped for some.

customized formula from any fasting plasma amino acid

profile. Their number is ,
