 And it's also the only thing that I've ever taken Any only medical thing that I've ever taken that has just got rid of my anxiety Exercise really helps, but it doesn't aid it even that even intense exercise does not really either as much as this stuff Hello everybody and welcome back to another video with me Tom Stanley from Asperger's Grove And today as you can probably tell by the name of the video and also these lovely products in front of me I will be taking you through what I take on semi daily basis if I remember to help my depression and to help my anxiety and to help my ADHD type symptoms that I have So I just want to clarify first is that I am not a registered GP I don't currently even have a degree yet in medical science, biomedical science rather So any advice, I'm not giving any advice but anything that you see here or stuff that I'm taking I'm not recommending that you take it I just thought I'd take you through some of the different things that I take, the supplements, the prescribed medication, the tea and stuff that I drink in order to keep myself above water A lot of people down play the role of supplements in helping with depression and anxiety They are quite a big important factor in it and they have been shown in numerous scientific studies to have a large effect on it But not many people seem to pick that up and use it which is abysmal to me So let's get into the video, as you can tell I am very tired because I got no sleep last night again I don't know whether it's these buddy These will help And basically I had a UTI, urinary tract infection when I was in Thailand Sorry if it's TMI for you, there's out of the way So yeah, I'm going to start first by showing you my prescription medication This is a metrazapine Obviously it's going to be flipped because of the video These are metrazapine 13mg coated tablets I take 15mg which is the half of the tablet So I'll give you a low down of my experience with these It's not the first anti-depressant that I've taken, I've taken phloxatine in the past And many other anti-anxiety drugs like buta blockers and short term relief like benzodiazepines and stuff But you don't want to touch that stuff All this if you're going to help it So my presapine is a weird drug, I did talk about it in one of my previous videos It's not the same as other drugs And other anti-depressants like prozac, poxetine It's a trial and pan, although all those kind of anti-depressants is quite different It's not a typical SSRI which is one of the main anti-depressants in the market right now I'm talking about it like it's some kind of fashion trend or something So yeah, I've been taking these for two years I think Yeah, two years I started on 30mg, couldn't cope with it, too much weight gain Too much, couldn't get up in the morning feelings And they have a very large sedative effect So they usually prescribe to people who struggle sleeping like myself But the thing is with these things is that it makes it a lot harder And I'm also a lot worse than most people getting up in the bed in the morning So it's not great for me Other things which may not just be due to this anti-depressants in general Although they stabilise their negative emotions and make them a bit less intense They also do that with the positive emotions as well Which is something that I think is a very flawed aspect of anti-depressants It should really take that into account It makes you more like a zombie rather than gets rid of your negative emotions If you imagine yourself as like an amplitude, like a sound wave It just kind of squashes it all together So it doesn't deviate much from the middle It's not my favourite thing, I don't like taking them I wouldn't want people to take them unless they've tried everything else I was very readily taking them when I was younger Because I had diagnosed with depression, I had severe depression at times And moderate depression just like as a baseline It kind of shifts down some miles nowadays which I'm quite happy about It's probably all this amazing work I'm doing Why do I do that? You can tell that I'm tired I'm very tired, I'm not tired I know that I'm tired, but I don't feel tired Do you get me? These things they act on serotonin receptors Which are typical anti-depressant targets And they also act on the noradrenaline parts of your brain as well Noradrenaline receptors Typically they produce some different effects compared to other ones It's also an anti-histamine which I don't like taking Because anti-histamines have got a bad rep in the science community Right now for bad side effects and implications with diseases and stuff I'm going to try and get off these as soon as I can Don't take these unless you have to Next thing that I'm going to show you I think I'll go with them in order Of getting them Is my multivitam Just take these in general for health I got them for exercise initially But they obviously help with energy and stuff It's been B12, it's in everything Especially in commercial products and energy drinks It's got magnesium in Which is good for nerve damage Not good for nerve damage It prevents nerve damage to some degree Some other random assortments of vitamins You can have a look and take a screenshot and flip it around If you really bothered about it And I've taken the label off so I can't even tell you where they're from Sorry about that In terms of multivitamins, this is probably not the best Because any multivitamins that aren't made out of food sources There's some brand that I can't remember But any food supplement that you can get Is a lot better than the artificial manufacturing of it For example, like calcium carbonate Is usually added into this stuff for a calcium supplement But it's not really shown to absorb as well It's basically like just eating a limestone And you could always do a little vitamin boost Even if they don't work They're just being wished down the toilet The next one Which one was the next one like that? Vitamin D Vitamin D is a very important ingredient Especially if you're Ashley, especially for both people And if you're a bodybuilder Vitamin D is really important in maintaining burn strength It helps like get the calcium in and stuff That's not the reason why I take it A lot of people can be deficient in vitamin D And it can hurt their immune function and stuff And because of my anxiety and stuff My immune function drops quite a lot So I need all these things to kind of bring it up So that they'll get chronically sick Such a happy person, aren't they? This has got calcium carbonate as well in it So I'm getting a lot of limestone today I just take one a day Which is like 500% the recommended daily lounge Which is, it's not a bad thing For vitamin D it's just Your body would just want to use it So that's good Especially if you don't live in places that are nice and sunny If you live in places that are nice and sunny Just throw this off the table So the next one is Amiga-free These things Again, take a screenshot Flip it around if you really want to There you go This is fish oil Fish oil Has a lot of Amiga-free fatty acids DHA and EPA Both are very important in maintaining brain health Growth Repair All those kind of things Fatty acids are very important You can see, you hear like people saying Eat your fish and stuff It'll help your brain and It'll help you with memory and all of that And there was a big, there was a big craze with it When it came out of all the Parents buying it for the kids And I was one of them with my mom buying it These ones are salmon fish oil And it has about I just take That's not going to mean anything It's got 180 EPA and 120 DHA And this is in Thailand So I'm not sure about the actual dosage So the typical dose for this For helping with depression and anxiety Is having about About 300 milligrams As I've read It's usually important to Get this stuff in Because it helps with information And also like it helps your brain And it keeps it all nice and healthy Next one Is I'm going to go with green tea Which is my mug now Do you like it? It's a scanning electron microscope Image of something that I cannot remember Green tea is One of the best sources of caffeine That you can drink In my opinion And in a lot of other people's opinion Green tea has a high level of L-theanine And it's important in Symphysis of serotonin It keeps your serotonin all healthy And stuff in your brain Which is one of the things that you Deficient in when you All depressed and stuff So it can help with that And it can help keep the Regulation of it up and all that And it has been shown to be One of the best sources of caffeine as well If you like your caffeine and your anxious Try green tea It's a lot less Gittery You don't get as lot of the physical effects That you get with the coffee I found And then you also get the anti-anxiety effects Of the L-theanine I don't know how I'm showing you this cup The next one I've got three left Three for you Next thing is Balance Like I said that right I do know a lot about these things Trust me But I always forget about the names And I can never link them to That's why Google is a good source So basically this is It's not a very potent amount of Rodeola The Rodeola root extract That's used in it Which is like the main ingredient For the sale of this It's about 62.5 milligrams The active dose On a lot of the science papers Or one of the science papers that I read about it Said that The optimum dose is between Like 200 going up to some Some other value So I just take 200 Of this, 250 Because I'm a little bit bigger So I just want to make sure that I get enough And this also has magnesium in as well Which I said It's good for protecting those neurons Very important also in maintaining Energy And resisting fatigue Which is usually associated with Anxiety and depression So throw in This also contains A type of ginseng root extract Which is one of the things That I'm going to come onto next Which I have I'm not taking these two together Obviously Because then I get a big dose of it So around about 200 Ginseng as well So when I take about 4 or 5 tablets of these Which I'm trying to do I need to get a better source of this to be honest The reason why you would take rodeola Is because it has had Quite scientifically marked Marketed Marked effects on serotonin And dopamine as well So it helps I find When I take it with my antidepressants It raises my Which Is considerably dampened down from The antidepressants It's also an adaptogen And it has all sorts of different Benefits such as energy And mood And all those kind of things It's been used for a long time for Natural remedies and stuff So that's why I take it I am aware that It could have some Issues with the antidepressant As much as I can And I've talked to some people about it And Although there's not much research done into this It doesn't seem to be that much of an issue to me I've been taking it for a while And it hasn't impacted me But as I said again I'm not licensed I'm just telling you what I take So don't go taking all of this stuff Just because I told you so I didn't tell you so I'm trying desperately to like I'm trying desperately to not Seem like I'm trying to sell something But I just want to show you guys What I take Because I thought it was quite hilarious I looked over at my desk over there With all my supplements that have lined up And it's just like Some kind of pharmaceutical store or something This is the ginseng Ginseng has the same sort of effects with Asrodiola Not the serotonin type effects But it also has Other nice effects With sexual dysfunction Which is good if you No depression And depression affects that So it's one of the important things That you want to get right Definitely And also some antidepressants as well Can lower it as well Good thing I think It also helps with your testosterone levels So you might want to check that out If you like your bodybuilding and stuff And it's really good for energy as well It's also an adaption Of vitality and counter-axe fatigue The typical ginseng type Is panax ginseng Which is not this one So if you're going to buy one Get that one And make sure that it is high grade And it's for all reputable people If you're going to take it Which I'm not telling you to Okay? Last thing on my list Which is something that I have added recently And has been an absolute The experiences that I've had Over like one or two weeks of taking it If you can find some more Because it's run out One thing that you need to know about me Is that my drug You don't need to know about it I'm just going to tell you I have a really high Like drug tolerance Especially to like CBD oil Alcohol, caffeine I've got a really high tolerance to those So I usually have to take a bit of a bigger dose I don't know whether it's just because I'm so incredibly anxious And jittery all the time But what the prescribed on here Is to have one to two drops Or sprays under the tongue twice a day And I found that It had an effect When I took it into about the Seven or eight drops per day Which is obviously not good Because it's all run out In a very short amount of time And I need to get some more And so this is the This Livewell Oral CBD 2000 milligrams 20% I'm just listing off numbers here So these things are very new Supplements I would advise if you can Maybe wait until a bit more research Is done with it If you're really struggling with your anxiety And you really can't cope And you're going to be doing something stupid Maybe give it a bit of a Google Ask your doctor about it I know a lot of doctors recently have been Actually pointing their patients Under the table Just to try it out Because it's just such an amazing thing For me It has been For my friend it helps a lot as well CBD basically It reduces a lot of my Thoughts Repetitive thought cycles that I have And I've got anxiety And it's also the only thing that I've ever taken Any only medical thing that I've ever taken That has Just got rid of my anxiety Exercise really helps But it doesn't aid it Even intense exercise Is not really that much of this stuff It can cause a bit of sedative effect But obviously I'm very Up with sedatives I've been with them for a long time It sounds like I'm taking a bunch of whole Strangolises But my transapine is a sedative So I'm quite used to them And When I take this stuff with the ginseng And the rodeo And all the other stuff That I'm pumping into my body It doesn't seem to have as much of a sedative effect And I can get on with my date It's also had really good effects For my studying It lets me just See I don't think about the small things too much I'm just like I need to do that So I'll do it rather than I need to do that but I could do this Or maybe if I thought about this in a different way I'll watch a YouTube video to see whether I should do that It

isolated Yeah it really helps a lot I really hope I can get it in Maybe a high dose And more of it for a low price But it's very expensive now because The tax rate is like Sky high For obvious reasons
