Stress

[Bouncer]

It don't make you tired. Makes you relax.

I will try it, but I just don't want something that's going to make me feel tired. I have stuff to do, a lot of it, all the time!

I take 4-5 valerian root caps before bed every night. Takes the edge off just enough to relax.

Herbalists swear by valerian root as a natural valium but I have no experience with it.

I am overloaded with stress right now. I'm at the point where I'd love to just run away and hide out in a cave, alone. Is there anything herbal that can possibly help (even just a little) your mental/emotional well being? I don't like taking things, have never taken meds, etc, but I'm grasping. My body handles stress very physically, and I can't afford another dive anytime soon. Any suggestions?
