Got 250g of it. Just took half a tea spoon of it. Feel very relaxed. Buying in bulk is way cheaper.

I really want to start taking that!

Honestly it is good. Especially if you save it for an as required med. totally feels equivalent to a benzo.

I thought it was for positive symptoms not anxiety?

anon88813813 · December 13, 2016, 11:52pm

I take it for anxiety. For instance I drink too much coffee one day so I took some theanine and I felt relaxed.

Yeah relaxed is the word.

So it doesn’t help with positive symptoms then?

Maybe. I mean if you are worked up regarding an hallucination I have no doubt it will make you feel better. Just not sure if it would prevent an hallucination on its own.

Effect of L-theanine on glutamatergic function in patients with schizophrenia.

M Ota, C Wakabayashi, N Sato, H Hori, K Hattori, T Teraishi, H Ozawa, T Okubo and H Kunugi, Acta neuropsychiatrica, Oct 2015

Glutamatergic dysfunction in the brain has been implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Previous studies suggested that L-theanine affects the glutamatergic neurotransmission and ameliorates symptoms in patients with schizophrenia. The aims of the present study were twofold: to examine the possible effects of L-theanine on symptoms in chronic schizophrenia patients and to evaluate the changes in chemical mediators, including glutamate + glutamine (Glx), in the brain by using 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS).The subjects were 17 patients with schizophrenia and 22 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects. L-theanine (250 mg/day) was added to the patients' ongoing antipsychotic treatment for 8 weeks. The outcome measures were the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index scores and MRS results.There were significant improvements in the PANSS positive scale and sleep quality after the L-theanine treatment. As for MRS, we found no significant differences in Glx levels before and after the 8 week L-theanine treatment. However, significant correlations were observed between baseline density of Glx and change in Glx density by l-theanine.Our results suggest that L-theanine is effective in ameliorating positive symptoms and sleep quality in schizophrenia. The MRS findings suggest that L-theanine stabilises the glutamatergic concentration in the brain, which is a possible mechanism underlying the therapeutic effect.

That is cool! If it does help I will take it regular.

Go for it man. You won’t regret it.
