SUPPLEMENTS- valerian a safe sedative herb, and supplement GABA, an amino acid,is good for anxiety.

FLOWER REMEDIES- few drops of Dr Bach's Rescue Remedy has a calming effect.

FOOD-bananas,turkey,brown rice and oats all have a sedative effect they contain tryptophan relaxes body and mind.

Kava Kava alone is currently banned in the EU and the US. You can still get it mixed with other things or off the net.

It's reputedly natures valium without the addictiveness. It's being investigated for liver side effects though ..

Hi Linda

Read that in the mag aswell and took note of it.

Lucy as for Kava Kave have tried it a few years ago but when the bad press came out i stopped using it.

Linda i hope people try what you have suggested.

Dont mess up the best things in your life, just because at present you are unsure who you are.

I tried kava kava on and off for a year and it was the best natural supplement I've ever used, I was so disapointed it was withdrawn, as for me it really made a difference. I'm too scared to take it though until its given the all clear even if I could get it.

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to let you guys know that I was chatting with my psychiatrist yesterday about supplements and he recommends valerian root...took it last night and felt so calm before bed!! I asked him about Kava because we can get it here in Canada, but he advised against it because it can be addicting...so even if you can get your hands on it over there, you may want to exercise caution if any of you have addictive personalities like me:D
