I know that supplementing with B vitamins can be very tricky and have side effects because no vitamin company can really get the correct balance of each B vitamin correctly-- especially those vitamin companies that make synthetic multi-vitamins. Too much of one type of B vitamin actually creates a deficiency in another of the B vitamins within the body-- according to Adelle Davis, an older nutritionist who wrote alot of books on nutrition.
I'm wondering if you may want to try just taking something like Brewers yeast -- unless you are not able to digest brewers yeast.
Maybe you can concentrate on eating more foods with high amounts of all the range of B Vitamins and skip the B complex supplements you are using. That would mean eating alot more fruits and vegetables -- and more organic and fresh than the produce treated for a longer shelf life.
Green leafy vegetables, Squash- like Honey Nut squash-- furits including Bananas, Papayas, Mango's , etc., and eliminate flour and refined sugar products from your diet to make room for the extra produce.
I know what has helped me during times of anxety and anxiousness is the following:
1- Valerian root tea -- (even puts me to sleep at night!) 2- Melatonin supplements or tea
3- Kava Kava capsules (used sparingly)
4- listening to relaxation instrumental music
5- Turkey
6- a few drops of "Rescue Remedy" under the tongue.
7- Prayer while getting away from everyone.
