Topic Title: Rollercoaster on SJW....HELP !!

Hi there I have been taking SJW for 4 months now and it seems to work well, the only problem being that I seem to have 3 weeks of peace and calm when life feels good. Then I get 4-6 days of anxiety and feeling really low, where I can't sleep properly and obviously feel tired and down in the day. Then it seems to gradually go and I feel back to normal for a further 3 weeks.
I take the Boots own brand of SJW.
Can anyone help as to what I can do to stop this happening ?
Thanks for any help.

You might try increasing your dose for a couple of weeks and see if that helps. You may be close to the right dose, but not quite there yet. Good luck.

I take 3 tablets a day of the Boots (Kira) brand, would a 4th help ?
I get anxiety and wake up early and can't get back to sleep.

Early morning wakening is one of the symptoms many people with depression/anxiety experience. I have the same problem with waking way too early, sometimes feeling anxious. My personal experience has been that while sjw has helped with a restful quality of sleep, I still wake early, even on a dose which is working in other ways, and am ready to sleep again about the time I should be getting up. I have not found anything to help with this broken sleep pattern. It's really frustrating, seemingly both a symptom and cause. I've found things -- like getting up and doing something, exercise during the day -- that help, but nothing that cures it. Any suggestions would be welcome. On the correct dose of sjw I feel better during the day despite continued disrupted sleep. Varying your dose up or down might help -- I would guess up from what you've said -- but the only way to know is trial and error.

Do you drink alcohol shortly before the 'down' periods?

No I don't I'm pretty much tea total.
I'm unsure what it is although I try not to take too many of my co-codamol pain killers as I am not sure of there interaction with SJW
