I've never taken really high doses in the past. The only time I've experimented with it was with the 500mg capsules. I took up to 2 caps 3xday for like a short time. I can't recall what effect (if any) it had on me at those doses.
When I start on the trial of 18g/day, it will be interesting to find out the effects it will have on me.

>Anything that will help with my obsessive/repetitive thinking is a huge plus. The obsessions are really aggravating. I don't want to have to take an SSRI again (or add another drug). I have no insurance coverage for meds. I'm trying to go as natural as possible.
> BUT! I found that it kind of destabalized me. It may interact with certain mood stabalizers.
>As far as destabilizing me, hopefully no worries. I believe that the Lamictal, Magnesium, Taurine, Choline, and Niacinamide I take should keep everything smoothed and evened out. I take pretty high doses of the aforementioned supplements.
Do you know if it will interact in anyway with the Lamictal I'm taking?
