Ultra Strength Stress Softgels

I'm a shift worker that works overnights. For the past year, I've struggled to go to sleep at a consistent time as well as sleep for a reasonable amount of time and have that sleep be restorative. It's been rough. I use black out curtains. I've tried drinking caffeine free tea. I used a mild prescription sleep aid, melatonin as well as OTC sleep aids. I've tried to go to sleep right after getting home from work. I've tried going to sleep several hours after finishing work. Nothing worked for me. I was waking up drowsy, tired, and reaching for the snooze more and more. I was finding myself taking an hour+ nap right before going to work. I even used a few call-in days (limited days usually meant for emergencies or sickness) because I was too exhausted to go to work. I've been miserable. I work a manual labor job which means I really have limited energy to do things at home whether it's chores, exercising, going out, etc. And I know exercising helps with getting good sleep but it's a chicken or the egg problem: how can you exercise when you have no energy? But you can get more energy by exercising. I couldn't do it. I took a shot on this Olly sleep aid. I did a little bit of research and found that this was a promising supplement. At worst it was an expensive placebo, at best, it is an effective sleep aid. It really works well for me. I'm amazed by it. Maybe it's a combination of placebo and sleep aid. I use it in conjunction with Progressive laboratories Twilight Time. I take one for each. Within an hour of taking the two pills, I am starting to fall asleep. Prior to taking these supplements, i would spend hours lying in bed waiting to fall asleep. Or i would get up, watch TV, eat, whatever. Maybe get 3 hours of sleep. I'm getting at least 6 hours every night (your morning/afternoon). And unbelievably, I wake up rested and not drowsy. And with that, I have energy to do things before work. Prior to taking these, I would wake up and do the bare minimum and go to work. Now, I'm entertaining the idea of doing overtime. Prior to taking these, if never think of doing an extra four hours at work. I'm looking forward to exercising outside once the weather improves. I don't know what kind of voodoo magic these things are but thank god it works for me. I have half a mind to buy a load of these in case they go off the market or change their ingredients. One thing I can't comment on is whether they are habit forming or not. As far as value, they're not cheap. The other supplememt I take is about the same price so for about $30, you get two months worth if you only take one.

49 year old female in perimenopause. I started HRT (estradiol and Fluoxitine) and was struggling still. Anxiety, depression, excessive sweating at night and while exercising, fatigue, brain fog, insomnia, indigestion - you name it. I read up on vitamins and supplements that help these ailments and 3 out of 4 in this supplement support the bodily/brain functions that regulate these issues. So I started on Olly Ultra Strength Goodbye Stress, Olly Multivitamin + Omega 3, plus a magnesium glycinate supplement and a synbiotic (pre/post/pro-biotic + vaginal health) from other companies and within 2 weeks I had a noticeable change fir the better, and in a month I felt like a new person. Most of my symptoms are gone or significantly reduced and I was able to stop taking Fluoxitine (which frankly helped initially but then made my symptoms worse over time). I'm not a doctor, and I still take estradiol, but this regimen for me was a godsend. No more anxiety, depression, excessive sweating, indigestion or fatigue. I have so much more energy. I think I just needed to balance my system out. I'm now almost 90 days in and I feel amazing. I take everything at night all at once with a big glass of water before bed as that works best for my schedule and my body. This regimen does not upset my stomach at all.

Olly, this product is awesome! I was looking for something that was a good sleep aide without melatonin and this is one of the few with these ingredients. Also it's not gummy, which is a plus. The problem is the packaging is terrible. It's hard to open to get the safety seal off first, then once it's off the regular click open top doesn't open, the whole lid comes off.

I tried the OLLY Ultra Strength Goodbye Stress softgels as part of my daily routine, and overall, I had a good experience with them. The softgels were easy to swallow, and the texture is what you’d expect from a standard softgel supplement. I didn’t experience any stomach discomfort after taking them, which is always something I pay attention to with supplements. I also didn’t notice any jitteriness, which I appreciated. For me, they helped me feel a little more relaxed on stressful days. As far as value goes, I think they’re a good option for the price if you’re looking for a supplement to support a calmer routine. Overall, easy to take and worked well for my needs.

I haven’t been on these a full month yet, but I’ve already noticed a big difference. My perimenopausal irritability and “rage moments” have GREATLY lessened, and I feel more like the calmer, kinder version of myself again. To be fair, I also recently left a very stressful, public-facing job, so I’m sure that’s contributing too. That said, the shift in my mood feels more consistent and noticeable than I would expect from that change alone. So far, I’m really impressed and plan to keep taking them.

I've taken these on and off for a few years now. I do think they help me manage my stress and anxiety. I am sensitive to many meds, so I only take one pill each day-even though the dose is two. However, I noticed that after taking them consistently for a few weeks, they made me feel really emotionless and a bit dead inside. I didn't feel stressed, but I really didn't feel anything. My libido was shot and I had no desire/energy to do anything at all. As soon as I stopped taking them, I felt like myself again within a few days. I think I'd rather feel stressed out, but like I'm alive.
