Hi All
I have been using perkia for the last three months my anxiety has got really bad and I have started using Sun theanine as well. At the moment I am taking three perkia and two sun theanine a day and my depression is back with vengeance few years back I also tried the brand Kirra and the depression came back after three months. I am sick to my stomach thinking of going back on ant-depressants but I feel so bad at the moment I don't think I have any other choice. Is there anybody with similar experience!

Hi,
Before you decide to get back on meds again, try something called colostrum. It's the nutrition mother's give six hours after birth. They take it from cow's, it has a lot of health benefits and it has helped me a lot with my s.a.d. and depression. It kicks in after a few days if you follow the directions, and you can start lowering your doses rather than upping them. I started taking five a day, and now I take one. It has given me a lot of energy so I try to keep my levels pretty low and it still does the job. I am also taking suntheanine to calm me down. But overall it has worked wonders for me.

Hi,
Has the depression got worse since you started taking theanine? Do you think you could be having a bad reaction to it? I tried it and didn't get on with it at all. I know it's supposed to be relaxing, but it made me feel awful and tense.
If you want something to help with anxiety you could try gotu kola. Bast taken 12 hours after SJW, and in cycles of 4-6 weeks with two weeks off in between.

Thanks Cici
I feel the anxiety was getting worse with time. I then took the Sun theanine for a week and the energy level's in my head and anxiety got bad. I am pissed off that the Perkia has done nothing on the anxiety front. I can't go on the way I am feeling did the Gotu Kola calm your nerves and anxiety? I have been on ant-depressants before and felt they really control the nerves and anxiety but as we all find the side effects are not nice. My doctor wanted me to take Remeron which are know as Zispin in Ireland but I have read people's experience with them and 85 percent of the comments are bad!

Hello again,
Yes the gotu kola definately soothes nerves and anxiety - for me anyway. Worth giving it ago. The effect is very soothing, and long-lasting.
I can't stress enough though to experiment with the timing of the dose. It can cause drowsiness to begin with (if this happens take it at night), and has a weird interaction with SJW (made me feel buzzy) so it's important to take the two herbs at different times of day.
It's a shame Perika didn't help with the anxiety, but did it help with depression? Could be worth sticking with it if it did.
Good luck,
Cici
