I couldn't get past the sedation part of it so I can't say how it would actually work for anxiety. But I would think it'd have fewer side effects than the typically prescribed anxiety/depression meds. Just my 2 cents.

As everyone on here will agree, these meds affect us all differently!

i certainly hope it works for you!!!

Keep a written journal to help you see what it helps with and what it does for you.

    Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job.  It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it.  Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown.  There was a full length mirror in the changing room.  I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like.  It was a reality check.
