Has anyone had any success in using herbs to treat their GAD or generalized anxiety disorder, specifically Chamomile? If not Chamomile, have you found anything else (natural) that has been helpful? I just got off benzos after 30 years due to tolerance and I am looking for natural things that might help and aid in my recovery. TIA for any replies--

    For my anxiety and panic attacks I use Rescue Remedy and have done for over 15yrs. Have you tried it?

    Wow 30 years! Great job getting off! Three things help: Messages, Epsom salt baths and magnesium supplements.

    Here are seven standard questions that I ask everyone: What drugs were you on? What doses? How long where you on them? Did you taper or cold turkey? How are you feeling today? Did anything help you during the withdrawal process? Do you experience “brain zaps” when trying to fall asleep?

    Congratulations on coming off, how did you manage it?  

    I have tried camomile tea but its very weak effect.

    i have taken advice from Mike and trying magnesium, asked gp last week and she seemed ok with that, whether if works or not i dont know, still take 1 or 2mg diaz and trying to get off.

      Massages, hot tub, sauna all seem to help people.
