Watch out for next-day Taurine lethargy . » tecknohed

Whenever I take anything with raw Taurine in it, it causes *extreme* lethargy the following day.

I already have major energy problems, and when I was on Nardil I was drinking energy drinks like RockStar. Love the taste, and although I got a decent boost from the Caffeine, the next day I would feel wiped out... Time for another RockStar! (as if I needed another reason to consume something sugary on Nardil).

Because the lethargy hit the next day, I never linked it the RockStar until I ordered some bulk taurine powder, and took it raw in 1-2 gram dosages. The next day lethargy was so great I couldn't get off the couch. It wasn't a particularly pleasant feeling like a benzo, it was more flu-like. Ugh.

You might like the stuff, but I thought I'd give the heads up, if you feel bad one day, you might not associate with something innocent you took the day before.

The one natural thing I've found to be truly useful for anxiety is Theanine, which IMHO rivals a low dose of a benzo, but isn't physically sedating. (I usually take 500mgs/dose) Bulk Nutrition sells it in bulk (powder) on their site for 20 grams for $10. If you really like Taurine, you can grab 1000 grams for $20. ;) Neither have much of a taste, so they're easy to wash down.
