It certainly does! I often wondered if some of my reactions are 'all in my head'; my husband thinks it's amazing I react so strongly to supplements - but he is too busy to notice what is going on in his body/brain. I have a lot of time spent to myself; when I get enough sleep and eat well, I can tell how different supplements are affecting me quite acutely. My life is a baseline that is very constant, and luckily, without too much exterior 'noise', or stress.

It's taken me 2 years to get this tuned in - I'm sure a lot of people here are the same. I've gotten used to feeling the effects of different supplements and now know a lot about what is good and what ain't for my brain/body (at the moment).

I have just ditched my GLA for awhile, for instance, as I am pretty sure it was dragging my mood down (may go back to lower dose). I know because I started the fish oil long before the GLA, was doing fine, but then got a little anxious and added in the GLA (for eczema + anxiety) - fixed the anxiety but then kept taking it in probable too large doses and mood/motivation started declining (though not too much). Have dropped it completely and mood/motivation is stabilizing once more.
