Natural remedies for health anxiety

Does anyone know of any natural homeopathic remedies that may reduce anxiety? I heard good things about a South Asian herb called Ashawaghanda.

Any suggestions as to what has worked for you?

My psychologist recommends st. John's Wort, 5-HTP, & fish oil. He says sam-e is the best but I can't afford it

Hi Alexlu, haven't heard of the one you mentioned but the Bach flower rescue remedies are good. You can buy it in drop form, pastilles and a spray. Also it's worth having a blood test to make sure all your levels are ok. Also get copies of your results so you can see for yourself. Your GP may say they are fine but that could mean they are just within the normal range. So supplements would help in that case.

I think Ashawagner...is an Ayurvedic Medicinal Herb. Google it. Maybe go to your closest health food store and ask them about it. I do have some in my house.:(

Heard good things about 5-HTP. Has anyone tried it? How long until you felt ok?
