L-theanine and rumination

Does anybody have an idea why I have this strong compulsion to ruminate when I take l theanine?

I thought it was just in my head so I stopped taking it and my rumination stopped. Then today I had therapy and I took them Plus 1200mg gabapentin.

After coming home I wanted to stand by the window and act like I’m talking to the passing cars???

Does high gaba levels cause anything? I read it helps with rumination but that’s been the opposite for me …

What brand of L-theanine are you taking? Does what you’re taking have any other ingredients?

Maybe it’s interacting with that?

I will have to look …I didn’t think about that. I buy It from Walmart. When I first started taking it it made me feel really calm and peaceful…it still does that. But now I want to think and talk to myself whenever I take it. I know both gabapentin and l theanine effects gaba so may e my levels are too high with both …

I’m gonna stop taking them all together even though they make me feel better :unamused:

L Theanine is surprisingly helping with my THC cravings.

That’s weird.

Magnesium made me feel weird all over. I stopped taking it. Good luck with the l theanine.
