It only seems to have an effect on me when I combine it with caffeine.
It completely eliminates the caffeine crash. That’s what I really like.
Anyone have any success stories with L Theanine ? I know @everhopeful is very fond of it.

Yes, I take it. I really miss it when I don’t.
You have to experiment with the dose.
Also this seems to be the best brand (for me anyway)

I take it in powdered form at night before bed mixed into a relaxing tea and it knocks me out, or I use it when I get jittery and anxious. Works as good as xanax without developing a dependency on it.

Hey Everhopeful…I might try that brand. The one I use is $6 at Walmart but maybe this one has less added ingredients or something. I guess what I’m asking is…what makes it the best for you? The calm?

What makes it best for me is :
I can use a high dose without it giving me mysterious aches and pains like other brands. Also it’s potent , some other brands did nothing.

I might have to check it out then. I know the brand I use definitely works but if I could get a better effect I might be able to go back to work.
It makes me feel not Soo negative and anxious. I like it a lot…thanks for the recommendation before
