Sorry I haven't stopped in for a while.

Unsolicited advice "not intended to diagnose, treat or blah blah blah disclaimer".

Try Valerian, an herb that Valium was developed to mimic. Try Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5), the anti-stress vitamin, and Magnesium (mineral) - calming effect.

You may have heard me post this before (ad nauseam), but check out The UltraMind Solution book by Mark Hyman, M.D. You don't even have to buy it. Go to a book store or library and take the simple quizzes in the beginning of the book. The answers point to what amino acids you're deficient in. I did this and follow-up blood work confirmed the results of his quizzes. I now take four inexpensive amino acids (plus the above), have discontinued AD meds and feel great again (except when the old DB roller coaster takes its occasional plunge!).
fwiw.

With fruit, with weeds even; but gather them
