Was fine a couple of hours ago but now I am a mess. My doctors are always astounded at how quickly I can change. Just feel that something is ver, very wrong but can’t tease out what. Don’t feel delusional or paranoid. Just horribly anxious.
I’ve been having the same issue. That’s why I posted that question about a non benzo solution to the problem.
I’ve just taken a whopping 500mg of l-theanine. I think I’ve become tolerant to 400mg now.
Did you do anything different? Like having a lot of coffee? Coffee always makes it much worse for me when I overdo it.

I find that coffee and cigarettes exarberates anxiety. I am drinking coffee and smoking as I type out this post. Lol

The only thing I can think of was I was expecting some mail which was running late - but why that effected me so much I have no idea. Also is really hot in my flat.
Just ran the clippers over my hair so is cooler now.
I would maybe try something like gabapentin rather than supplements. Having been on both from my experience gabapentin is way more effective. Has made me put on weight though.
The reason why you put on weight is because when you raise GABA levels in the brain, you get the munchies. I eat everything in sight on Xanax lol…

I do get the munchies with increased gabapentin. Same with benzos. Thought I was imaging it.
Yep. For the longest time, I thought that only marijuana gave the munchies. Apparently all benzos have this same effect.
just a suggestion – try walking to relax. or listen to some soothing music. hope this helps, judy

If you put your mind to it, you can meditate. This will relieve the anxiety.
