Has anyone taken Kava for anxiety? I am trying to wean myself off of Ativan and am having a terrible time. I have been reading about Kava and thought I would give it a try.

I know of Asgawhanda Root (pardon my spelling lol) . That surely helps with anxiety. But Kava Kava not sure . I’m going to Google. Any caffeine in that?

Oh ok. Everything natural ive tried for anxiety doesnt work for me. I take lexapro, ativan as needed, and trazodone.
