Cheeky Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I went to see a integrative doctor today and they have given me NeuroCalm by Metagenics it's got Zizphus, Kudz vine, Magnolia and Passion Flower. Has anybody heard about that, I.m abit worried anout taking it. She reccommended one tablet in the morning and one in the afternoon. She also has tested me for MTHFR which is a gene defect and also fo Pyrrole. She supports me with coming off Seraquel and Paxil, but wants to see if I'm in good health.

Moderator brassmonkey Posted February 25, 2015 Moderator Share Posted February 25, 2015 Over at Prior Place a lot of people swore by NeuroCalm. There were others who said it didn't do a thing for them. Start carefully to see how it effects you. 20 years on Paxil starting at 20mg and working up to 40mg. Sept 2011 started 10% every 6 weeks taper (2.5% every week for 4 weeks then hold for 2 additional weeks), currently at 7.9mg. Oct 2011 CTed 15oz vodka a night, to only drinking 2 beers most nights, totally sober Feb 2013. Since I wrote this I have continued to decrease my dose by 10% every 6 weeks (2.5% every week for 4 weeks and then hold for an additional 2 weeks). I added in an extra 6 week hold when I hit 10mg to let things settle out even more. When I hit 3mgpw it became hard to split the drop into 4 parts so I switched to dropping 1mgpw (pill weight) every week for 3 weeks and then holding for another 3 weeks. The 3 + 3 schedule turned out to be too harsh so I cut back to dropping 1mgpw every 4 weeks which is working better. Final Dose 0.016mg. Current dose 0.000mg 04-15-2017 "It's also important not to become angry, no matter how difficult life is, because you can loose all hope if you can't laugh at yourself and at life in general."
