Thanks for getting straight into the info and not bsing for like ten minutes like most youtubers
Thank you. I did my best. Hopefully I can make more videos like this in the near future...
Drastically reducing caffeine and sugar is very important when recovering from an anxiety problem. And most importantly is watch how you talk to yourself. Negative self talk is the root problem when it comes to anxiety and depression
I agree with everything except the caffeine part. If you think caffeine might be exacerbating your anxiety, you clean clear that up with some simple L-theanine. Which is found naturally in green tea. Or you can take it as a supplement every day with black coffee or bulletproof coffee. Coffee and tea (especially green tea) are excellent sources of antioxidants. I wouldn't remove them from my diet unless I had some sort of abnormal reaction.
I fixed my negative self talk with REBT writing exercises. I read a New Guide to Rational Living by Dr. Albert Ellis and implemented his practices of my own accord. Competent therapists are difficult to find. Most won't teach you how to replace negative self talk with rational thoughts. Or how to change your behavior.
Im sorry to hear about your childhood. You seem alot like me
The Passion flower really helped me
rachel trower me too
@@inspiredtosoar3526 how did you take it at what time is it for anxiety
HANSARAJOO MULLIAH well, I had good results at first, but found the drowsiness at normal dose it caused, wasn’t practical for everyday life. Just have to know your threshold 🙏🙏🙏
@@inspiredtosoar3526 thanks for replying
What Passion flower brand did you take
This is a wonderful video! Very informative. Keep up the good work!!
Thank you so much for sharing. This world is not an easy place to be in. Just know there are people that care. God bless & keep you well. And, thank you for the amazing info. =)
Excellent!! these herbs work great for me - just got a great sleep blend and woke up with o anxiety or flat mood, despite lots of stress yesterday - I work in the MH field, and encourage people to apply these strategies - EMDR therapy and Somatic experiencing therapy for amazing for childhood - or adult losses/deprivations/stresses etc. and prayers - God wants you to have peace - thank you so much for sharing these healing remedies :]
I took a product called melissa dream last night contains chamomile and lemon balm and a few other things . I have severe anxiety and last night I was chilled and slept great . Lemon balm and chamomile are so helpful
Also Holy Basil by New Chapter is awesome. 2 capsules along with Bronson's brand L theanine (4 capsules) which has passion flower mixed in. This stuff works for anxiety
thanks buddy yep chamomile tea changed my life
How often and how long did you take it?
Really? tea changed your lie?
I have been taking valerian root and passion flower, kava kava plus chamomile for years now. I use them interchangeably Since I was 27-28? Anyways.. my anxiety got worse worse as I got older and graduated from high school than when on to college. I made the honors roll and from there went onto taking klonopin which messed my life up bad. I couldn't graduate on time because I was severely depressed and barely wanted to study anymore but eventually I did finish my last class and got my AS degree and moved on to get my BS but am too sick. I ran out of my meds so had to go pick up some valerian root and passion flower. I'm feeling extra relaxed, serene, and calm right now without the nasty buzz you get when taking benzos so I'm happy valerian root and all the natural herbs still work for me. Anyways.. I hope your life is going better than mine. I'm taking things slowly.
go easy on yourself and give yourself the time and support you need to recover, best of luck..slow and steady, you'll get there xx
Did you take the tea herb form ? And what dosage ?
I use a Skull Caps works great.
Chamaoline tea worked great too, I drink it when my neighbors busy music i can feel the vibrations at my desk and my senses were already heightened from anxiety so i drank it and all fear went away
I use passion flower before boarding a bus to a job interview, on the bus a huge panic and pressure on my head came out of nowhere and as quickly and huge it came of just disappeared and was fine that rest of the way.
I have valerian root but yet to take it. As the skull cap, passion flower, and chamaoline tea work great.
I also heard 80mg of lavender has been proven *superior* to a placebo in a double blind study on *greatly reducing* levels of anxiety in patients with general anxiety disorder
My experience :-
Passion Flower - Makes me drowsy so i gave it up
Valerian Root - Makes me feel stoned so i gave it up
Lemon Balm - The most POWERFUL thing for social anxiety and anxiety in general cause it helps brain fog and helps think more clear
Chamonile - This should come in 2 days and will report back if it helps or not but we will see
All i want is my life back, be able to work again and not be full of fear
Paul Levine i
I feel you.
Im in the same situation😰
@@lati5074 I stopped all the above
Im on Probiotics and i swear this stuff has given me some of my brain back, much LESS anxiety, i guess time will tell but the Lemon Balm was making me hear stuff in my head so i stopped it, herbs as a whole should not be used for long periods tbh as its not necessarily made to be digested by the human body but then again it works for anxiety for some people
Ever since i took Probiotics, i am no longer much afraid of stepping out of the house, not scared anymore and those constant negative thoughts have disappeared too and when i used to drink caffeine, it would make it worse but now i drink caffeine and still NO NEGATIVE THOUGHTS, i still do feel like anxiety but only so much less which i believe is normal long as it does not affect my behaviour and normal daily life
Paul Levine
Thank you for responding 🙏
Much appreciated.
I want to feel the way you do.
This anxiety destroys everything in life.
You are so worth feeling better🕊
Maybe you will feel even better in a while, on probiotics, I hope so🙏
Have some questions:
1. How long have you been eating probiotics? 2. Did you get any side effects in the beginning?
3. What kind of probiotics do you eat?
I would be very grateful for an answer🙏
@@lati5074
Q1. How long have you been eating probiotics?
A - It has been about a week so far and your supposed to take 1 capsule but i take 2 in one go every morning which is 20 billion CFU
2. Did you get any side effects in the beginning?
A - None whatsoever BUT on the other brand i took, my body was shaking and itching, kind of like cramps but i didnt worry cause Probiotiocs is good for you in every shape and form
3. What kind of probiotics do you eat?
A - Probiotic Complex, Link is undereneath
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Probiotics-Complex-over-10-Billion-Forming-CFU-Capsules-Bio-Cultures-Acidophilus/153574078975?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=453584688158&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2648
Also when taking it, it kinda feels like your brain is absorbing itself, become a little weird and confusing but i personally dont worry about it so like for an hour i will kinda feel paused up, like my brain is lifting off the negative stuff such as brain fog
Any other questions, i am more than happy to help
@@lati5074 Also just so you know my mom usually tells me i have bad breath and i used to use a mouthwash to help the breath but PROBIOTICS ever since day 1 i have noticed my breath is much more fresh
I use to use ashwagandha and tulsi holy basil. That stuff is great for depression, anxiety and it's a mood enhancer. Taken together with some black pepper extract and you'll have a healthy anti depressant/anti anxiety.
I get much more anxiety from ashwagandha with black pepper
@@jane4759 yea
I've recently come across this cocktail and I'm so glad to hear its helping others good luck
Do not use cbd I’m an over thinking type of person and it gave me insomnia for 2 days after 1 drop over thinker every thing I’m going to give these herbs a try thanks for the input
Just remember that is only your experience, alot of other people use CBD to great effect
I used after I got off of alcohol it seamed to help for a bit not bashing it anymore it’s better then alcohol
You look super chill bro. I'll be starting on these soon.
Thank you for your info - I'm on Armour Thyroid so I cant take the Lemon Balm but will try the others, Peace.
Lemon balm (heavy sedation) and passion flower 5 to 10 drops give nice sedation for sleep. Use tincture for fastest absorption. I take magnesium glyconate or Epson salt bath for anxiety and b complex vitamins at the basic level, but the best one I know of are: rhodiola rosea and ashwagandha.
I use epsom salts in the shower since it's faster and more cost efficient. I just get my body wet, turn off the shower, and then rub the salts into any sore muscle areas for 10-20 minutes and then, like fucking magic, 30 minutes later all the soreness is gone!
Every person who works out should know this. It's crazy knowing 99.9% of people who workout till they're sore, on purpose, don't know there's such an easy way to not feel sore.
Right on...Kava kava is good too! Glad ur feeling better brother
That stuff is hard on your liver
More people would benefit from seeing this. Thank you for sharing your story and what you have discovered 👍
Highly recommend concentrated vit c , nourishes your adrenal glands which take a huge hit during high stress and anxiety.
I’m glad you found something that works for you.
My daughter is really getting beat up by anxiety. I am making a blend with either chamomile or St. John's wort.
Nice. After doing some research and watching your video, I will be ordering the passion flower. Hopefully I can say goodbye to anxiety and insomnia soon. No one should have to feel that way. Ive done a lot of work on myself over the years and i can relate to what you said about not being able to look people in eye. I've since overcome that with deep reflection and tbh a lot of help from another not so legal plant, atleast not in my area. I am now looking for other natural alternatives and your video was a big help. Thanks!
P T I know this is 7-8 months later but did the Passion flower help at all?
Did it help
@@samanthamohn1166Some other guy commented a year ago on here that passion flower alone helped with his anxiety.
Why not just try them yourself? They're free if they don't work. Return the empty bottles to Amazon or vitacost or Swanson Vitamins and get your refund. Obviously you can't do it all the time but I've probably returned 50 supplements that didn't work nut I now consistently buy 12 supplements per month that do work.

I just bought 5htp. I didn't notice at first, but each pill has 100mg of Valerian Root as well. I'm noticing it working, but hasn't been long enough yet. Also has b6 and magnesium, etc. I'm thinking the Valerian Root is what I'm feeling initially. Later the 5htp should boost serotonin and have more of a long term effect.
I really appreciate your video. Thank you so much for sharing. I'm sending happy vibes and all the best from Scotland 👍🤗
I took Passion flower and felt super relaxed a hour later took some lemon balm and fell Asleep for 15 minutes woke up to racing thoughts and my fore head hurting like in the inside I’m not sure if my body handles herbs well I’m not sure what else to do for anxiety and insomnia
These herbs are not side effect free, I got headaches and palpitations and increased anxiety from especially Valerian. Not for everyone. Most often it feels good like you said at first then it hits in the night or even the next day and can increase anxiety.
Thats awesome... I'm using it to treat insomnia. Its so much better for you.
Buy it as a dried leaf and make a tea or smoke it don’t get me wrong smoking anything is not great so make a tea but just don’t use capsule that holds chemicals
This was helpful, thanks!!
I’m sorry about your childhood. I didn’t have a good childhood either. Xanax killed my friend unfortunately. Thanks for sharing this. Ashwagandha helped me so much but I still don’t have great sleep. Going to try some of this. I buy my herbs in bulk and drink in tea form or make my own pills. Even cheaper. May the Lord Jesus bring healing to you. God bless.
How'd the Valerian Root and other supplements work out for you? I take ashwagandha too. It also helps with stress/anxiety and sleep, plus it has a ton of other benefits. More mental clarity, faster workout recovery, better mood, and so on.
Great! No anxiety ❤️ I eventually got off coffee and switched to oolong tea. I add Ashwagandha, eleuthero, rhodiola, turmeric, cinnamon and some times other herbs but I believe the Ashwagandha and rhodiola are the primary ones that have helped with anxiety for me. Also making sure my hormones were balanced. I have been taking fenugreek and vitex for that. As well as supplements like cod liver oil and nutritional yeast. I rarely need valarian but if I have trouble sleeping I’ll take that or Passion flower.
Was on Lexapro for a long time, and I did make poor choices while on it.
Thanks brother
Thanks for sharing this. I'm going to try these pills. I appreciate it.
peace thanks for the info. your a rock star bro .
Yeah I need to make more videos like this.... I've been so out of touch with myself recently because I've been working 24/7/365. Need some balance in my life.
Can you please let me know if you're taking it for years straight until now, or you take a break in between? If so how long are the breaks? I eagerly want to know potential effects and side-effects of Valerian root when used long term. Does it create dependency or addiction? Please help. 🙏
What do you take during the day to fight off Anxiety? The same thing you take at night?
Thank you!
If I have anxiety during the day I do some HRV, Biofeedback-guided meditation. Look up HeartMath. I really need to do a review of the HeartMath Inner Balance. It really helped me learn how to remain calm even in otherwise stressful situations.
Great info. You're a solid dude for being able to make sense of your upbringing and also taking initiative and keeping your overall health in mind when considering the prescriptions. I've been taking sensoril Ash and L-Theanine with Bacopa and ginseng for my own situation. Sensoril is very calming compared with ksm66, and the Bacopa helps with my anxiety as well but I'm finding the ginseng helps increase my energy and keep fatigue away that I noticed when only taking the sensoril. I'm finding many possible supplements that work for me and anyone just starting out should try to keep their mind open about other supplements, dosages, times of day for dosage, etc as the efficacy for you WILL be different than others.
I couldn't tell the difference with gingseng. I tried red Korean ginseng. Couldn't really feel or see a difference. But GODDAMN Gingko Biloba turns my brain on in the morning.
But yeahhhhh, everyone's different. You need to find the supplements that work best for you. If you find 12 life-changing supplements, you'll find your life has changed. And from there, you can add in stuff like exercise, team sports (the comradery is awesome, feeling like a part of the team is sweet), 4-5 sauna sessions per week, epsom salt baths, cold showers, no blue lights at nighttime, whole body vibration, biofeedback therapy, neurofeedback therapy, etc etc.
If you start off too stressed out or unmotivated to make any big changes in your life, definitely see a functional medicine doctor, or any type of doctor very knowledgeable about supplements, and find the ones that will help you get out of bed or off the couch. That's step #1.
Thank you 🙏🏽
Hi Breakman Radio. Are you still using this for your anxiety? I have just found out about passion flower and wow it has helped my anxiety so much. I have taken it twice so far, one capsule even though the bottle says to take 2. I feel like my old self again.
Just passion flower alone? Wow, that's remarkable. My friend Joe was able to take care of his anxiety with Valerian Root alone.
The reason I initially started taking all 4 was that taking all of them together eliminated rebound anxiety from getting off xanax.
Also, using all 4 might be necessary for me since I want zero anxiety or stress. And I've been able to achieve that so long as I don't get into codependent relationships.
Bro What about CBD
I took
Irwin Naturals: Ashwagandha + Cbd
Traditional Medicinals Organic: Nighty Night Tea.
Natrol Melatonin
Buddha Teas: valerian
Slept like a Rock the first day
That's a lot of sedating herbs.
Hey Breakman Radio. Which is the best for sleep? or do you use some sort of a combo? Are you still using some or all of these? Thanks in advance!
Passion flower help sleep?
Hi Brotha. Does this combination still work for you? I’m trying to get off klonopin (benzo like Xanax) and am looking for natural healthy alternatives.
So are you still taking these supplements? Are they still working for you. I just started the Valerian root and notice a big difference. I take 1 during the day and 1 at night before bed. I've been taking the Toniiq brand from Amazon. I also just bought chamomile tea. I have had terrible anxiety since I was about 5 years old. I'm now 40 I just want it to go away 😩
Yes but I don't them for anxiety anymore. I need them to reduce stress and for the anti-aging benefits. Lower stress = slower aging.
Do these herbs cause a withdrawal symptom when used daily long term and want to stop?
Does tolerance increase over time? Better to take these together or separate for new user?
bruh, your eyes look just like mine.
and we suffering from anxiety too.
Hey there bro, mad respect towards you on breaking away from xanax and into natural methods. U rock, stay positive always, as you said the past is the past so let's strive forward.
As for me, I just recently found out that I have anxiety, probably started a month ago, the doc gave xanax and of cause it helped, however I wasnt comfortable on the idea of using it for a long term, hence I decided to try chamomile tea.
In fact i just tried it for the first time earlier today, and boy oh boy did it work, albeit it being to early to see how it will go long term, i will just stay positive on it.
The question i wonder is when u mention you are finally cured from anxiety, does it mean that you no longer need the chamomile and the other supplements mentioned by you?
Am I to believe that one day I can look back and say, yes I had a phase in my life dealing with anxiety?
Regardless, congrats on you bro!!!
I still use the supplements every day but I don't need to take them every day to not have anxiety since I've now done so many other things to not only eliminate my anxiety but to maximize how good I feel all the time. For example, I also use The Inner Balance HRV trainer, which has allowed me to essentially become immune to stress as insane as that may sound. Any time I feel stressed, I do a 10-minute session and it fades away. You can order one yourself and it comes with a 60-day money back guarantee so if you don't like it, you can get a full refund. (And no, I have no financial ties to their company lolllll. I don't have enough viewers to have any sponsors.)
Before the lockdown, I also hit the sauna at my gym 4-5 days a week and that just leaves you feeling profoundly relaxed every time. Sometimes, after a good workout and a sauna session, I would even feel a mild sense of euphoria.
It's truly remarkable how having anxiety led me on a journey to peak health. I quit junk food, which I consider a type of drug, and eat a paleo diet that makes me feel good and look good all the time.
This is all because I got into "biohacking", which is all about designing a lifestyle that maximizes your performance in every area of your life that's important to you. I highly recommend Benjamin Greenfield, Tim Ferris, and Dave Asprey for more info about all that.
I really need to make a video about all this lol. I just need my new laptop to arrive soon 💻💻💻👨💻
If you want to stay connected, I can provide you biohacking advice for free. I'd like to become a paid consultant one day but I need to prove myself with a few client testimonials and build a website first.
@@breakmanradio2530 into nutrition, it's a huge factor and american diet is horrendous, but I'm a semi-vegetarian (animal empath) ,so can't do paleo...lots of organic fruits, veggies, whole grains, some fish....you sound super stable and positive, congrats
Hey bud cool video, how do you like Valerian I found it makes me feel shitty the next day. I like the other ones though. thank you
I love the Valerian. Never had any negative side effects. But everyone's different! So you need to try one new thing at a time and see what works for you.
Lower the dose
@@breakmanradio2530 hi there your video really helped i just bought valrian root does it really good sleep aid does it fall asleep is it addictive if taken daily like sleeping pills i hope its not addictive
So you take these before bed and then they help you throughout the day the next day?
So All the capsules on one night before bed?
yes :)
Yes, take as directed :)
I've been through just what you said you've been through do you think the pain from that causes our social anxiety?
Everything about ourselves whether good or bad stems from childhood. The window with which you have to make a good impression on a child is very short and will dictate the way that child views the world for the rest of their life.
Yes, being bullied, being abandoned or neglected or abused by one or more of your parents, various forms of trauma, etc.
Negative social experiences often inflict social anxiety. Of course, some people are more predisposed to it than others. I've met people who, for whatever reason, seemed to be born with the gene for resilience, and no matter how fucked up their childhood was, they came out of it okay. But such people are rare.
And then there are people who have seemingly perfect childhoods and no severely negative experiences but somehow end up with social anxiety.
Everything is an interplay between experiential, genetic, and hereditary factors.
Are you from the northern U.S.? They way you say ‘sauna’ is different than I’ve heard it.
I'm from South Jersey. We have a strange accent that is a mash up of a southern accent, a Philly accent, and a New York accent.
But everyone has an accent. We just don't realize it because everyone we grew up with had the same accent as us and we often don't pick up on more subtle differences.
Unfortunately, unless you have your own sauna, you're screwed right now. I believe the lockdown is killing people with these skyrocketing lifestyle diseases. People aren't working so they're drinking more, eating more junk food, doing more drugs. And the gyms and BJJ classes and all types of sports are cancelled.
Have you tried holy basil?
I've been taking that as well. Very helpful!
Thanks so much you are such great man this video is great my son had same issues as you w bullying and everything magnesium L threonate apigenin are real good too he’s been on it a few days been doing wonders with the added ones you explained will also be beneficial too and we are native Americans and the ones you mentioned are the ones my ancestors would use for same reason they were known to be one the healthiest eco systems in history till they got colonized
