I had a similar experience as Nick, had Kava in the Philippines that was quite relaxing. Best night of sleep ever. Not surprisingly, the tinctures I got a few months later were nothing alike. Thanks for the reddit link Charon, I'm going to check that out for sure.

I tried Kava and it didn't do much for me. Maybe the source was bad. Passion flower and Valerian root was much better for me. Get them seperate and not in a mixed in formula though.

Kava root is the best, if you buy Kava in capsules it won't have the same effect. There are plenty of guides on the Internet detailing how to properly strain and prepare Kava root that are easy to follow. Excellent alternative to benzos, and whilst I'm hesitant to suggest it's non-addictive (since even chocolate can be considered addictive), it certainly lacks the same habit-forming patterns present in other GABAa-type meds. Very short-lasting though, if only there was an extended release version...never going to happen buy one can only dream...
