Magnesium?

[anxiouslady13]

I brought the idea of taking magnesium up to my Dr and she said it would be ok for me to try it. I took 500mg and am feeling less anxious. Has anybody tried magnesium and if so, what are your stories with it?

Yes! I've been taking Natural Calm, which is a mag citrate powder. I take a teaspoon every night in chamomile tea. I also take a teaspoon of inositol power in the morning in a glass of water.

YAS... i discovered magnesium after doing some research(and awesome people from this site told me about it) about recovery stories from depersonalization/derealization since I been in this hell for over 9 weeks. Long story short, Zoloft didn't work for me and I was on it for 6 weeks and came off it 5 days ago. I went to the vitamin shop and bought a bunch of supplements one of them being magnesium glycinate. The first day after taking it I felt better then I have felt in this 9 weeks of hell. And I had some pretty good days after that. So yeah I'm all for magnesium. Also there is kind soul here on this site that is a magnesium God. He has giving me tons of info. I will find his name for you.

is this good for the heart racing and really nervous about everything would that help and where can i buy this ?

[anxiouslady13 in reply to Johnnie1234]

Its nickname is " the original chill pill" it's helps alleviate anxiety symptoms. For me, it has made my anxiety less intense. I take 500mg once a day (with dinner) to help me sleep better. Its best to ask your doctor about taking it as it can mess with any medications you might be taking.

[anxiouslady13 in reply to anxiouslady13]

And yes it helps with racing heart.

[Johnnie1234 in reply to anxiouslady13]

you think when i see the docter i should ask him before i buy it?

[anu_24s in reply to Johnnie1234]

Yes please ask the doctor before buying it even. Your doctor will be able to guide you better.

Take care.

[anxiouslady13 in reply to Johnnie1234]

Yes absolutely. Its always a good idea to speak with your Dr about taking anything first.

[Johnnie1234 in reply to anxiouslady13]

yeah im going to ask

[Hidden in reply to Johnnie1234]

Yes! Great for heart health. I was put on a beta blocker for my racing heart and hated it. I felt so lethargic. The mag has definitely helped.

Was this the metoprolol that made u feel bad? 50 mg daily?

[Hidden in reply to Nervousgirl0714]

Yes! It made me very lethargic.
