Can you take too much of Vitamin B complex?? Or any vitamin at that matter. Has anyone heard that B vitamins can cause suicidal thoughts??

You can overdose on all vitamins even though the excess is often eliminated, as in the case of the water soluble vitamins B and C. Too much vitamin C can give you kidney stones and also acts as a diuretic and too much vitamin B can apparently give you neurological problems.

There are 2 types of Vitamins; Fat soluable and water soluable.
Water soluable vitamins are fine. You can take large doses but your body will use only what it needs, then flush out the rest. Vitamin C, all the B vitmains except vitamin B12. The B12 is stored in the liver and can reach toxic levels
Fat soluable gets stored in the fat cells of the body and can buld up. These include A, E, and K
