Vitamin C for Depression (Mood, Energy) and Social Anxiety
Vitamin C for Depression (Mood, Energy) and Social Anxiety
What have been your experiences with Vitamin C intake? Has it some significant effects that are noticeable and more than subtle/placebo? What changes did you notice regarding mood, energy/motivation, cognition and especially social anxiety (sociability, talkativeness etc). Any other noticeable effects or improvements?

Actually, yes vitamin C works very well for me. The effects on me is on par with antidepressants. I'd suggest try it out & see how it affects you.

I have found high dosages of vitamin C to be very deceptive. At first high dosages of vitamin C were great but about a week later the effect wore off. The vitamin C could have had mood lifting effects initially by improving iron utilization, however, the effect is not long lasting. Western Blot analyses revealed a long term down-regulating effect of ascorbic acid on iron independent and iron dependent Nramp2 and Dcytb expression. Nramp2 and Dcytb are involved in iron absorption in the gut.
Neurological illnesses is my website where I discuss supplements but do not sell supplements.

It's not placebo. Vitamin C alone is simply a long term supplement. You won't notice a significant effect of it, however you will be more healthy long term.

Ascorbic acid instantly gives energy and that is always a good thing if you face depression
It's not a cure but helps a lot with motivation
Couple it with zinc and you will feel better

Vitamin c is good for a lot of things but it's better to get from fresh fruits. Try raspberry and clementines everyday. Most ppl don't eat enough fruit.
Iv noticed better skin and digestion. Overall I just feel better and more hydrated too.

Hmm, I think you're looking in the wrong place. Check Vitamin D instead

Take some extra C for health benefits but you are not going to notice anything at all.
