Well noted Scott thank you. I shall bring this arsenal of information to my psych doc when I visit him in two weeks (maybe I will make an earlier appointment). One question if you don't mind. A year ago I heard that magnesium can have an anti glutamate properties so I tried magnesium glycinate 800mg a day. I had a robust response (depression and anxiety lifted) for about 2 weeks and then got very very tired and flat after that. I wonder if the problem was that glycinate was the wrong form of magnesium (heard magnesium malate is less sedating) coupled with the fact I wasn't taking calcium (I don't drink milk or eat much cheese) at the same time which I hear have a synergy together. Do you have any thoughts about this? Perhaps the whole thing was placebo but gosh it did feel right for 2 weeks and I was bummed to let go of it. Many thanks for your thoughts,
mogger
