B12 should help, I've been taking it a few years now but forgot it a few times and took it in the evening and I've found that it makes my difficulty getting to sleep impossible so it is doing something.
I'd suggest taking it an hour or so before you expect to feel the crash.

There are different variety's of the B12 what is best?
There are one's what can dissolve in water what I have tried and don't like?
do they work? Do they take a while before they start to work? When I was at Holland and Barrett some of the B12 what I read!!
what r the best brand do u know? Was going to try months ago BUT decided against it at the time!!... I get 8 plus hours BUT come the afternoon I'm bloody knackered, and snappy as f..k. And I take Sertline to for my mood swing's I just feel all over the place at the moment.
so much so that I was in bed at 8pm as I was that tired!!!!!!
knocked me sideways been this tired??
have you any advice please?
ANYONE!!!

I did a lot of research on it a few years ago as I was deficient. I needed injections for a while. These are cyanocobalamin (containing cyanide) they are not really very good for you and can be carcinogenic, so I only had them long enough to bring my levels up.
So there are two types and it's the same with the supplements.
Cyanocobalamin which also needs to be converted by your body, and methycobalmin which is the good one and is what your body requires.
Then there is the fact that going through the digestive process much is lost, some people have (I think it's intrinsic factor) or lack of it which means they cannot get any via the oral route.
So, make sure it's methycobalmin and either use lozenges which you dissolve under your tongue (you can also get drops and powder you put under your tongue in the same way).
I would recommend either a once a week patch (I think it's 5000mg) or 1000mg sublingual lozenges one (I have taken more as it's water soluble and any excess comes out in your urine) a day.
If you have a lot don't be alarmed if your wee turns bright yellow.
My homeopath also advised me to take vitamin C as that helps with absorption.
Hope this helps and that it helps your energy levels. My daughter was feeling tired last week and I gave her one she did she felt more energetic for 4 to 5 hours afterwards.

The doctor stopped my injections when my levels reached 350. They were 150 when I started them. I do take methycobalmin sublingual also use high dose 5000mg patches
But it doesn't seem to increase my levels although they don't drop any more.
If you are in Japan they consider 500 to be low so yeah I think as high as you can get it. I think the injections are cyanocobalamin so not really very good for you.
I was taking a proton pump inhibitor, I found that actually 2 x ginger capsules before meals and ginger tea worked better for the acid reflux.
The b12 works I forgot a few times and took it late it kept me very awake.
