• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I suspect I have an undiagnosed mood disorder that I've been struggling with for all of my adult life. I've noticed that cutting back on the caffeine intake and adding things like Kava kava and Relora to my supplement regimen has helped.

Just putting that out there for anyone in a similar situation.

I sometimes have trouble with anxiety and I have definitely noticed that caffeine makes it worse for me, so I usually try to avoid caffeinated beverages, but occasionally will have a small cup of coffee under social settings, but any more than that and my nervous system sets off. :ahem:
