Anybody tried this natural tranquilizer? Its marketed as safe and non addictive. Its made up of concentrated herbs used for inducing relaxation. I ordered some for specific stressful situations like a wedding I have coming up. Its in a liquid form and you just put 10 drops in a glass of water and wash it down. I tried some and believe it or not, but it seems to work. It made me feel relaxed and a bit drowsy for several hours.

Cool... please let me know if it works for the wedding. I tried some of that Bach Flower Rescue Remedy and that didn't really seem to do much for me. Have you tried that one?

Hey guys,

Pure calm is a combination of melissa officinalis, lavandula augustifolia, and passiflora incarnata(passion flower). Im not sure what the common names are for the first 2 herbs(one may be valerian?) What I do know is this stuff does seem to work for me. Just smelling the contents of the bottle gives me a wacked out, relaxed feeling. Its a very concentrated combination of all these herbs. like benzos, it works on gaba but much more mild and it doesnt have the serious health risks like benzos. Essentially its safe, non addictive and effective. Ive read all of these herbs have been used for centuries and theyve never been related to any type of health problems.

I've tried Pure calm, formally known as "becalm" several times. It worked very well when I was in severe Dp/Dr earlier this year. I am still in severe benzo withdrawal right now so I am afraid to touch the healing gaba receptors. I may break down and use it again someday. Did you order it from http://www.nativeremedies.com? It sure sounds like the same stuff i've used in the past. Btw, you still on the paxil Joe?

Hi,

I think it's kind of homeopathy. I know this very well. Unfortunately, it doesn't work for anyone. Valerian in capsules exist and you cannot take it with benzos, but it's true it has a relaxing effect. For me it gave me headaches but it's more potent than homepathy.

Hey Neal,

Nope, I gave up on prescription drugs for good. Ive totally had it with the side effects and poor results. The only drugs I was willing to try were the ssris and they are just so up and down for me its just not worth it. I ordered the pure calm from Native remedies. I know what you mean about the healing receptors. I dont like it either. I dont want to be constantly drugged. For the most part I feel pretty good drug free. Im going to reserve this herbal for times that are very anxiety-provoking. Im sorry to hear you are still suffering from the benzos. Hang on, it will get better eventually.

i take a mixture of hops, valerian and gentian (calms in the uk) and it works pretty well for me. i found rescue remedy worked well for my driving test.
