Natural supplements for anxiety - February 4th 2016, 05:11 PM

On Tuesday at my counseling appointment, I informed my therapist that I've been experiencing some generalized anxiety. It's not related to my trauma at all, and she recommended I see the nurse practitioner that prescribes meds at her practice. I am currently on the waiting list, as far as I know. My therapist asked if I'd try an over the counter supplement: L-Theanine. I agreed and went to the vitamin shop downtown to buy it.

So I've been taking 2-3 of these chewable tablets everyday since Tuesday. I don't feel much of a difference, at least not a noticeable difference. Does anyone have any experience with L-Theanine or with "natural" supplements at all?

How did they work for you? or Why won't you use them?
