What kind of negative reaction did you have when you mixed Resveratrol + Magnesium or + Rhodiola? Magnesium w Res in the picture has been very inconsistent for me. It sometimes would make me feel a bit better, some small happiness and emotion but often sedation and ironically emotional numbing. Sometimes the benefit would come few hours later while initially I'd feel like crap.
Yeah sometimes when I took Omega 3 with B6 within an hour of one another I'd feel worse and in a darker mood pretty shortly. I suppose it should only be one or the other? Not worth the risk if they are even 12 hours of one another?
The B6 tended to make me a bit more awake and alert but aside from that I wasn't sure if it was helping much. It may have added Anx possibly.
I no longer take B6, Omega 3, Magnesium (accidentally posted 10x my actual dose earlier btw), Tyrosine, or Licorice Root. All of those out of the picture and I feel a little bit better. No longer does it feel like the world is crashing down around me. I do still take Resveratrol about 600+ mg a day and also around 240mg ginkgo biloba. This is with my ritalin, valium, and 100mg gabapentin/neurotin.
Both anti-oxidants. I wonder if any adverse effect.
Would D3 be any issue with my meds and supplements?
Licorice root had some absolute positive effect for my poor interest, and also allowed me to have more emotion but whether it was the Licorice or something interacting I... began to feel quite a bit of general anxiety. The kind which would emerge for no reason. Extremely troubling and uncomfortable. Eventually I stopped it due to bleeding side effect and for some reason my skin was becoming extremely dry. This was at 900mg Licorice Root.
I do keep journals but sometimes can be very difficult to pin point exactly what is doing what. I've tried to simplify things lately though by dropping most supplements I been taking. Some progress but even w journals it can be difficult to wrap my head around things. I may be young but my memory is often very poor.
> for me vitamin e boosts the effect of fish oil. i think it works by preventing the oil becoming rancid in my body.
> b vits for me react badly with fish oil. i get more depressed when i mix them. i dont know why. i just avoid them.
> thats a very high dose of b6 you're taking. does it benefit you in any way?
> resveratrol didnt react badly with FO for me at all. other things did though including: magnesium, selenium and rhodiola.
> the best way to find out what helps or hinders is to keep a daily journal of what you take, the foods you eat and exercise you do etc, and how your mood is after. you will quickly see patterns emerge and find out what makes you feel better/worse. this approach helped me hugely to make progress against anxiety/depression.
