I tried Valerian ONCE and found it to be the most evil substance on Earth so I threw the whole bottle away. to be honest I think it reacted with the Luvox that I take for OCD/Depression. I felt cold all over and really depressed, almost as if it counteracted the Luvox. Never again!!
Anyway, one thing that I have found that works pretty good is GABA. They sell it at GNC, at least that's where I bought it. It takes about an hour to work, but take it with a little bit of food because if you take it on an empty stomach it'll make you jittery for a while. But don't take it on a full stomach either or it'll take forever to work, if at all.
Kava Kava is good but DONT take more than 250 to 400 mg. It'll be too strong and you'll feel like you're gonna go to sleep and never wake up. It's a pretty scary feeling, at least for me. Then again it probably also reacted with the Luvox i'm taking. Who knows. I also threw those away. The only thing I've kept is the GABA. Works pretty good with no "hangover" affect.
Hope this helps,
Let me know how you do.
God Bless,
JT
