Kava kava still working well ordering some
Today going to give it a try
RE: Stressed & Wife Threads - MoJim - 09-03-2017
I've been wanting to try real Kava for some time. I have used vitamin shop kava caps in the past with no success. I have also worried about liver issues, since I have some unrelated health issues where I need my liver to be operating normally, especially over the next year.
You mentioned that you take kava with coffee. Have you thought of using decaf instead? Caffeine increases my anxiety tremendously.
I'm glad this is working for you. Kava and other natural medications /plants can really work for a lot of us.
Good luck and keep us posted.

It's worked well I will have a cup before a stressful situation
Not sure if it's working or just placebo effect but it's working for me
I also have liver issues

Am trying some Phenibut today...will let you know how it goes.
RE: Stressed & Wife Threads - Oxford - 09-07-2017
Yes my answer to this question is I couldn't tell so I have discontinued My use of it for phenibut that is
For right now dose is small 1/8 tsp think u really need scales to measure
RE: Stressed & Wife Threads - johnw4 - 10-21-2017
I tried the Phenibut, but it really wasn't for me.
I read the instructions and it said take before you go to bed and it kept me up all night.
Maybe that was just me hoping and hoping...but all the next day I just felt "out of it".
It just shows that we're all different.
All the best,
John

well instructions differ brand to brand, your supposed to take around 1-1.5g if its your first time about 3-4 hours before bed ,but i found that after one time or two its becomes stimulant, and taking right before bed you wont get any sleep at all.
recently went on 3 day use of it, and by third day i was like hangover zombie, you need a lot of benzos to stabilize after using it.
Since i find it great but its only every 2 weeks that i have stuck up for years,that once taken for single day it works wonders,but afterwards i dont touch it for weeks.
its good as emergency use but theres no way to take it often without some really crappy negative effects,since your alert but at same time your BP is raised
hard to be still,and so on.

melotonin is the new wave.
allegedly the smaller mg amt makes it stronger. dunno. but it helps me to sleep and when i had tremors post covid, it kinda helped. still get it.
