“Thiamine supplementation significantly improved HARS scores, increased both appetite and general well-being, and reduced fatigue in patients with generalized anxiety disorder. Interestingly, these patients were able to discontinue taking anxiolytic and β-blocker medications.”

“Parental thiamine significantly affects patients with generalized anxiety disorder. Patients completed the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS) before and one week after thiamine treatment (the mean HARS scores were 27.33 and 5.8, respectively).”

Probably via effects on lactate, histamine, and serotonin.

B1 helps lower lactate, and therefore histamine, by its role in pyruvate dehydrogenase.
