I kinda have white coat syndrome. I’m gonna be honest, I need a high dose of L-theanine to barely take the edge off. I ran out of my usual and tried this in the meantime. I don’t know if it was all in my head but it didn’t really help me much. I still felt my heart nearly racing out my chest after an hour. It’s supposed to help feel “numb” to an extent and calm. I’m not expecting miracles but at least make my anxiety manageable in the moment.
I’d have to give it another shot but initially, was a bit disappointed. I’ll update my review if I see a better experience. Remember, it’s an amino acid and everyone’s needs are different. What didn’t work for me, can work for you.

Los efectos son suaves, en mi caso me ayudó a relajar la mente y tener una mejor concentración en mis tareas, y en general a sentirme más tranquilo y feliz (combinó la teanina con café, cable aclarar)
Cada cuerpo es un mundo pero vale la pena probar.

After trying several different L-theanine products, I’ve got to say, this is the best one. It’s effectiveness is quick and long lasting. It really gets me focused and kicks my energy up a notch. I can honestly say this helps. I will continue to use this product as it has cleaner ingredients than what I used to use. Grade A product.

I did like this vitamin and felt it worked in areas of concentrations . With stress it takes off some of the edge. And it does work faster when taken with coffee or caffeine . It a more hollistical approach to improve focus.

Ok so if you don’t know HPPD is Hallucinogenic perpetual perception disorder… this causes continuous visual disturbance such as a staticky visual snow that is always present. Various causes but most common is from using psychedelic drugs.
Before you stop reading and say “serves him right” I actually developed HPPD after my first ever experience with LSD when I was 20 years old. This is unusual, typically people develop HPPD after extended repeated drug use.
I’m now 41, so my vision has been heavily distorted and different from what it should be for over 2 entire decades. No doctor I have ever spoken too about this has ever shown any interest in helping me and the usual reaction is “well you did this to yourself and clearly it is not that bad if you have had it for so long”
Well actually it is that bad, so bad in fact that if “the man” ever bothered to understand how bad, they would very likely disqualify me from driving (before you judge, I’ve had 21 years learning to live with this visual aspect, I am in no way risking myself or anyone else whilst driving, I just had to re-learn every aspect of my life that relied on my Vision to incorporate this new visual aspect)
Anyway, I’ve spent much of my adult life, researching this condition, learning from other suffers experiences and reading the very limited amount of actual legitimate research that has been done to understand and hopefully find a cure.
The general consensus everywhere I look is that this far, this condition can start after 1 or 1000 psychedelic experiences… it can stop at random (most suffers say symptoms last anywhere from a few weeks to a few months, rarely it can last for several years) I have only found one other sufferer that has lived with the condition for as long as I have.
So far HPPD is considered incurable, untreatable and can last an indeterminate length of time.
Well I spent years experimenting on myself with so
Many kinds of chemicals searching for a cure or at least a way to Reduce my severe symptoms.
By accident I found that approx 1/5 times I used DMT I would have zero visuals instead my HPPD would turn off and I would see reality Unencumbered by my HPPD. However the effects would return after 15-20mins when the DMT began to wear off.
Further testing I found that magic mushrooms had the same effect, low doses approx 1g of dried mushroom would give me about 8 hours of zero HPPD vision. Above 1g the HPPD would still turn off but I would also begin to actually trip making this an unsuitable daily way to manage my HPPD.
The fact mushrooms and DMT are both tryptamines inspired me to become more creative in my search for a cure/treatment.
I started looking into other less know tryptamines (less known publicly but not these brand new designer drugs that pop up regularly, the tryptamines I was experimenting with have been around since the 60’s and 70’s but are just not easily available and therefore often over looked by the psychedelic community)
I found some interesting success especially with 4-HO-MET and 4-ACO-DET to name a few. These would turn my HPPD off for the duration of the trip, however if I ignored every dosing guideline I came across (a heavy dose is considered to be between 40-60mg) after well over a year of self experimenting (with a close friend as my die hard trip buddy) I weighed the pros and cons and started experimenting with doses that I cannot find any reference online to any other person ever trying.
I increased the 4-HO-MET dose from 60mg to 80mg to 100mg and eventually settling upon approx 400-500mg and taking 3 seperate doses over the course of the experience. This as usual ended my HPPD but unlike lower doses where the HPPD is fully back by the time you wake up after the trip ends. These very high (and highly Unrecommended) doses actually seemed to leave my HPPD completely off for 4-5 days after I awoke following the trip.
This was amazing and I finally thought I was on to a potential treatment/cure…
Problem is taking 1000-1500mg of a psychedelic with a recommended max dose of 50-60mg as a long term treatment didn’t seem like the best of Ideas.
Ok you kind of up to date at this point so… L-Theanine…
I heard of this supplement as a potential aid to help giving up smoking. So I ordered some hoping for The best but sceptical.
Whilst waiting for the shipment I found some further research regarding HPPD treatment using l-theanine. I figured since I was trying it to quit smoking I would monitor the effects on my HPPD.
The reading I did showed “some” limited success treating sufferers of long term HPPD using l-theanine, the results became noticeable to suffers after approx a year of taking the supplement.
So I started using the supplement approx 2-3 months ago. I would take 200mg every morning, importantly I am prescribed dexamphetamine and would take my morning dose (approx 20-30mg up to 60mg depending on how I felt that day) at the same time. Then as per my morning ritual I would head off and grab a large coffee.
That morning happened to be a bright sunny day… my HPPD is more pronounced during these periods or in low light and dark situations.
Within an hour of starting my day I began noticing everything looking distinctly different. Now usually when I’m actually experimenting with my HPPD I am able to notice any differences almost immediately. As I was not doing that this morning it took a moment for my brain to register what was happening.
An hour after taking 200mg of l-Theanine my HPPD was at 90-99% weaker than it usually is. I’m stating those numbers as it was not 100% gone but was so minor that it barely registered at all. I was blown away.
At first I wasn’t sure what had caused such a significant impact… I was on multiple supplements and was trying a smokable herb called Rose Lily at the same time. I knew something I had taken had, had a massive impact on my HPPD, I had to find out exactly what was causing the effect.
So I stripped away all supplements except naturally occurring chemicals such as magnesium, zinc, calcium/K2 and tried each of the new supplements one at a time monitoring the results.
When I got to l-Theanine it was instantly clear it was this supplement causing the HPPD to go away. I would take the 200mg dose between 7-8am and the effects were very obvious for at least 10-12 hours. As the sun set and dark rolled in, then I would begin to notice the HPPD gradually return over the next few hours.
I repeated the experiment multiple times with the exact same positive results.
The fact it started to wear off around the 10-12 hour mark I decided to try a second 200mg dose later in the day. This second dose behaved very differently, I didn’t see a noticeable reduction in my HPPD instead I experienced a massive spike in unusual, unexpected anxiety that I do not usual suffer.
This seemed confusing, I researched l-theanine further… I could find no one online that was having similar experiences to mine.
Looking into the supplement further I found that it had a very interesting interaction with stimulants both potentiating them and the l-theananine being potentiated by them and altering the supplements effects.
As mentioned I take dexamphetamine every day and have a large coffee every morning. More experimenting confirmed that the interaction between l-theanine and stimulants (in my case dexamphetamine and caffeine) was causing the effective treatment of my HPPD. If I took the supplement with zero stimulants it would trigger a massive bout of anxiety.
Very strange findings but I have now been effectively treating my HPPD (remember I have suffered this for over 20 years!!!) for the past few months with massive, for me at least, life changing positive results.
I’ve tried the treatment on other sufferers of HPPD that have the condition at a far lesser severity than I do and they do not seem to be getting the same massive benefits that I get (although they all experienced some degree of positively noticeable impacts)
The important ingredient here is a fairly high amount of stimulants to interact with the supplement. For me I take a varying amount of dexamphetamine each day depending on how I’m feeling but a minimum of 30mg and a large coffee seems to be needed in order for the effects to work.
Anyway, this is a miracle treatment for me, it’s 100% repeatable, but the stimulants are key which I realise will not be readily available to everyone (I’m not sure if caffeine alone is sufficient to get the desired results)
Also the effects for me were noticeable after just a single dose. Every other source I’ve found states any positive effects, if any, are seen after a year of taking the supplement, however none of these studies combined the supplement with a stimulant such as dexamphetamine.
So I’m not promising this is a realistic treatment for everybody, but for me this is the end of a 21 year visual disconnect from reality. I am truly grateful, thankful and lucky to have stumbled upon this treatment.
If there is a possibility it can help other sufferers then hopefully I can get this information available to them.
I’m going to be posting this information on every platform I can in the hopes it may help someone who has also suffered this horrible condition.
I always believed there was hope, even after 20 years, always believed it would be a chemical cure, just wasn’t expecting to buy the chemical from Amazon lol

La ansiedad que padezco me causaba gastritis e insomnio. Desde que empecé a tomar L-teanina, he notado una gran mejoría. En pocos días, me sentí mucho más relajada, lo que ha reducido la inflamación en mi estómago. Ahora duermo profundamente y sin interrupciones, disfrutando de un descanso reparador. Lo que ha regulado mi metabolismo. Mejoró muchos puntos que se desencadenaban de un mal.

This a great deal. I take this in the morning with my daily vitamins before i drink my coffee. I usually drink 2 cups and this seems to stop the jitters right away. Also i feel like it evens out the energy i get from my coffee, it doesn’t just taper off, it has an extended life. I noticed i have a lot more energy after my second cup, and i dont need the 2nd cup i want it, which is great as well as Im cutting back on caffeine. If you dont want to break the bank, and want a quality supplement, this is the way to go. It last a while, so again, great value!!! Also great before going to bed if you have insomnia like me!

I have used this product for over 3 years. It is amazing. I mainly use it for times of stress (I’m in college) or to decompress at the end of the day. It gives me a sense of calm and (in times of stress) takes the edge off my anxiety. It can make me tired so I try not to use it early in the day. There is no groggy feeling the day after using either. I highly recommend for anyone that needs a little help calming down or relaxing.

L -theanine is unlike any other anxiety medication I’ve ever tried. More than likely you’re not going to feel any different than what you do now, but one day it will hit you that you’re not reacting to anxiety like you normally do. I first noticed the effect when I had my morning coffee 5+ days into taking this. I normally get pretty jittery, and my muscles tighten up, but I still like the coffee buzz and the mental clarity. This herb took away the extreme jitteriness and mellowed out my blood pressure, but I could still think clearly.
I now take it at about 5 AM, and then again at about noon. Don’t skip a dose! If you normally wake up during the night with any kind of anxious thoughts, this will eliminate that. My understanding is that this herb reduces the receptors for glutamate (the excitatory neurotransmitter) and then increases GABA, which is the feel-good sedating neurotransmitter. It effects both without having any sedating effect to your body. It’s very easy to think it’s not doing a thing, but all I can say is stick with it for at least a week. It will surprise you!
I don’t think this herb is going to completely eliminate all anxiety from your life, and you probably wouldn’t want it to anyway as some anxiety can be motivating. I think it does however have a place if you suffer from debilitating panic attacks or anxiety that is so strong that it keeps you from living life to its fullest.
And to anybody reading who suffers from nasty panic attacks or just generalized anxiety, just remember that all of the things that you fear have more than likely never happened yet. It is your imagination that creates the problems to begin with. You create this horror movie in your mind, and nobody is attending, an you’re not getting paid. Is that really a way to live life? This may take the help of a cognitive therapist to really master, but L-theanine can take away that extreme panic and give you confidence that you can in fact handle whatever comes your way. Being in a state of discomfort also means you’re growing. You are experiencing new events. When you have panic remind yourself of that! If you never go outside your comfort zone, you may be more relaxed, but you’re just stagnating. Life is filled with wonders and magic to be enjoyed and experienced. My hope for everyone is that this particular herb will help you to experience much more joy in your life, and take control of your like.
I know I still struggle every day, but not having extreme panic attacks has helped me to change my attitude. It gives me that little extra boost to do things I would normally not do. In a few weeks from now I’m traveling from Alaska to Thailand on a 26 hr flight, and getting married. What a wonderful thing that is. If a $20 pill can help me to accomplish this, then I think it’s worth its weight in gold and then some.
Best of luck to everyone in life’s journey. I hope you’re able to live it to its fullest!
