Effect of folic acid

I was taking folic acid (5 mg b.i.d) for one week. The folic acid gave me very good upliftment of mood and energy. The same effect was also observed with metyltetrahydrofolate 3.25 mg o.d. @ night. So it seems that folic acid deficiency may be present in my body. It could be genetical in origin or maybe acquired due to stress. At this time i am not taking any multivitamin tablets for the last three months. I am taking siddha medicine for hypercholesterolemia. When i am taking siddha medicine along with folic acid it gave me eye irritation and redness. So, i have to stop folic acid for a while. I need to explore further on this.
