[QUOTE="rebelson, post: 692427, member: 19966"] Have you tried natural supplements for your anxiety? I have anxiety too, it presents as Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). No diagnosis, but I diagnosed myself (I'm an RN). My son also has anxiety. He and I both take magnesium for it. I also take probiotics, read this article: [URL]http://www.theverge.com/2013/8/21/4595712/gut-feelings-the-future-of-psychiatry-may-be-inside-your-stomach[/URL] And just this week, I started taking an amino acid, L-Theanine, for it. I also ordered a bottle for and had delivered to son. Here's the one I bought: Suntheanine® L-Theanine 200mg (Double-Strength) in Cold-Pressed Organic Coconut Oil Type that in, in the amazon search box. CD won't let me post the link, I guess?
