I bought Valerian Clear Capsules 450 mg. each and took 3 yesterday and 3 last night, 3 this AM. They have done nothing to help with my Anxiety. I am feeling frustrated.

Herbs fo not work as fast as allopathic drugs. Give them time to work.

You may want to try St. John's Wort. Also, I use Valerian drops which seem to work faster and are more potent than the capsules. In addition to taking pills, you need to help your body along with deep breathing whenever you feel an anxiety attack come on. Going for a fast walk is also very important. Consider what causes your anxieties? Is there any way the problem could be avoided?

I actually just started taking valerian root capsules. I take one at night before I go to bed and sleep well through the night.

Valerian is a natural herb. Unlike a drug, it has to be taken a few days or so and get into your system. It's not a quick fix.

It takes a while for herbs to get seated in your body. Be patient, it should work.

A 1 MILE WALK POWER WALK WILL HELP BUT IF YR LAZY "ST JOHNS WART" IS BEST OR EVEN BETTER TOGETHER WITH THE WALK IF YOUR SUFFERING FROM DEPRESSION I TAKE "VENUFLAXINE" OR EFEXOR !! YOU MAY GET HELP FROM THE BOOK "THE CURE FOR ALL DISESE'S" BY DR. HULDA CLARK

i take one (just one) at night and it helps me sleep without taking sleeping pills which i think are not good to take. don't take so many at once. Try just one. it is a natural sleep aid and helps you relax. you are taking way too many.
