SJW made me feel good but did nothing for my social anxiety.

Hi, I too have the same problem you had in the past with social anxiety. Can you please tell me the names of the herbal brands you have tried that you stated worked so great for you in your post in May.
I would appreciate that so much.
Thanks so much and glad everything is ok for you.

Savion,
I have not been taking Amoryn as long as you but for once I seem to have stuck with a product for more than one month. However last week I stopped completely and to be honest felt fine for 2 days but then began to get that detached feeling again which was probably due to the anxiety returning.
I believe that the panic disorder I developed as a teenager has totally unbalanced my system but the ingredients in amoryn go some way to rebalancing what is missing.
Now back on amoryn I take one capsule at night. I do find though that in the late afternnon I feel quite shaky.
When I take two capsules my sleep is disturbed and I also feel very hungry all the time which could be the B Vit's.
Do you have no side effects atall and do you have a theory on why it works so well for you?
I am looking forward to trying there new product which introduces fish oil to the mix.

I tried Seredyn which did not help very much. Anxietol 7 is the best one I've tried. I will be starting anxietol 7 again when I get the benzos out of my sytem. I will make sure to let you know the results of anxietol 7 which were very positive the first time around.

Amoryn and Seredyn. I hadn't tried any other natural supplements before. Guess I'm lucky the 1st ones I tried worked for me. I wouldn't go so far as to say I've cured my social anxiety. I'm still sceptical and concerned it will come back. I feel that I need to go out and test myself more. I'm a student and had alot of assignments and tests when I started so was unable to seek out as much opportunities to test myself as I would've liked. After my exams I had eye surgery and was home bound for a while. Then I got hooked to World of Warcraft (PC Game) and continued to stay home until uni started again. You cannot live without some social interaction and it was during these moments (tests) that I noticed positive changes. Since the start of this semester I have tested myself more and each time, to my surprise, I passed.
Marcus, I sometimes feel the detached feeling returning but unlike before I'm able to deal with it and get over it with minimal effort. I totally agree with what you say about SJW rebalancing what's missing. I take two caps a day and have not noticed any direct link to increased appetite. Disturbed sleep IS a problem. I cannot directly link it to inability to sleep because I had this problem before and it could the result of other variables. BUT my dreams are very VIVID and I believe it is the result of SJW. I have no other explanation for it. Just two days ago I had a "nightmare" and screamed in the middle of the night. Also had some shocking/confronting dreams last night. Unfortunately I have many more VIVID bad dreams than I do good ones. I'm not aware of any other significant side-effects. I'm sure I've suspected some but without a strong link it's hard to say.
Why does it work so well for me? I don't know. All I can say is my mental illness was/is serious and that the combination of ingredients in the two products have worked for me. I am also interested in using fish oil to rebalance my system but will hold out until my current mix stops working. It's nice to have other options.
Thanks JHE, it's nice to know that Anxietol 7 has worked for you. Let us know how it goes. I see the ingredients are similar. Suntheanine as in Seredyn and 5-HTP as in Amoryn.
Sincerely,
MefromOz

UPDATE. Not all rosy, Anxiety came back this past week. No trouble talking to people, came about from spiralling worry that in fact I AM slower at picking things up than other people, in other words SLOW. That worry was evidenced by events and things I said during the week. SJW initially made me think I am "intelligent", guess it may not be the case. Despite this, SJW is still a blessing in my life.

Savion,
Judging from your posts you certainly are an intelligent person. The trouble with anxiety is that it prevents you from expressing yourself outwardly as you would like which creates even more anxiety.
There are alot of insecure people out there who are good at talking and love putting people down to make themselves feel better, especially those who seem vulnerable.
Anxiety though does not have any power over your ability to learn and this is why you will no doubt end up with better grades than those who see you as slow, which by the way is more in your head than theirs.
Even with anxiety you will succeed and one day you will look back on how far you have come.
As for amoryn I have come to realize that it is an extremely potent supplement and will only take one a day. Amoryn is definately a case of less being more.

I have severe Social anxiety and shyness. I've been taking Clarocet since Feb 20th. I am feeling huge difference. I feel less anxious and shyness when around people. I started talking to people with confidence.
Please try this product. Earlier I was taking Perika SJW. It didn't help me much.
