Hello -
yes I do suffer from anxiety and also depression. I never took a daytime benzo - just a powerful one for insomnia.
picamilon worked better than niacinamide for anxiety, but was too stimulating and didn't work in the long-term. Also didn't help much with my insomnia.
lithium orotate and 5-htp have been very helpful, but I only take 5-htp at night or it makes me too sluggish.

Hi,
> I was just curious if you have an anxiety disorder. I have suffered from severe GAD and mild depression for years. I have been through the ssri, effexor, serzone, parnate, and now Nardil. I have always wondered about alternative solutions, but nothing worked. I tried the kava kava, valerian, passionflower, aromatherapy etc..
> I know with Nardil, which this is only my first day, that you can't take tryptophan or 5-htp. I am just wondering if you ever took a benzo and how niacinimide or picamilon compare.
> Thank You
