I am taking Chinese herbs along with paxil and Lamictal. Last night I took them right before bed. I woke up in the morning NOT ANXIOUS. Wow. However, the anxiety kicked in an hour later. I should have take the morning herbs while I was still feeling o.k. I will know for tomorrow morning.

Keep us updated how it continues to work. Just make sure your herbs are compatible with your medications/safe to take. I'm sure you've researched them. My neurotic self gets nervous taking new vitamins though, let alone Chinese herbs lol. I know some people swear by them.

Which ones are you taking?

Hang in there & just think, TGIF! Your garden will be waiting on you :-)

Sending love-

My herbs are prescribed by a Chinese herbalist.. I have no idea what they are but I was referred to her by my psych doc. I think they are helping along with the acupuncture. No side effects which is great.

Oh I've heard great things about acupuncture. You just reminded me that my for more psychologist gave me a name of a good one in my city and I'm going to call them today. It's been on my to-do list, thanks lol.

If you find out the names of the herbs, let us know!

Hugs,
Lisa
