Hi Ladies, yes it's me again! LoL I've been reading a few articles about ashwagandha(withania) seems this supplement gets rave reviews to ease anxiety, is an adrenal & nervous system tonic...being an adaptogen, it has many benefits. Has anyone used it or is taking it? would like to know your comment/experience. Thanks lovelies

    I've taken it in a tincture with great success, but with all herbals I make sure I find a professional who knows about herbals to get the dosage correct. It is often with other herbs tailored to your symptoms. 

    Not sure where you are based, but if in the US, and in New England you can find a GP/PCP licensed and trained to do this easily.
