Hey folks...
I have found Passion Flower tincture to be the best alt med I use. From the Medline searches, I have found it has some benzo-like qualities, and likely some very, very mild opiate receptor qualities. Just be careful not to take too much..it is quite powerful. It feels 10000000 times better than booze, yet can give you a bit of a buzz. (No, not in an 'abusive' way...just the kind that helps melt tension and anxiety.)
Please...let me know if anyone else finds this!
Thanx,
Jay

I've found some interesting seeds and stuff to buy online after looking up passion flower : ) just incase.
Warning--if you didn't know
Passion Flower is an MAO – inhibitor

Sounds like interesting stuff. I've seen it as part of sleep supplements but don't know much about taking it on its own. I'll have to add it to the list of things to try.
