Anxiety Support Group
Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another.

Hi. Has anyone heard of or tried the extract/capsule/tea of 'Holy Basil'? I have read where this has replaced medication for some people. Just curious if this has benefited anyone. (I just put in a search for it and found many positive things). Thanks!

I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

The person who owns the health store he goes to was pushing them on him, obviously a salesperson (been one myself!) so he bought them thinking that they would be good for me. The salesman was Indian, I think, and they take a lot of Holy Basil where he comes from.
I took the pills a few times, and I definitely noticed a distinct calm that came from them that I liked.
I have to tell you, though, upon further research, I read that the pills reduce estrogen levels in women and sperm count in men. *shrug* extracts are hard because there isnt a huge amount of research done on them, nothing like on lab drugs. I did notice that I started getting a little acne after taking them, and I never, NEVER had it before. Who knows if that is why
So see if you can find any information regarding the effects on estrogen the pills may have, and then weigh the risks/benefits for yourself. As I said, I did feel very calm and relaxed and grounded when I took them.
Thanks for the post!

While it always seems like the right thing to do... taking Herbal Remedies, there is no way to tell what their long-term effects will be.
Being Herbal, they do not have to meet any Drug Administration standards. How will any herbal remedy react with a "chemical" medication? No-One knows!
Please do lots of research and be so careful. I've been the "Natural" route before and found that it all just made me feel worse.
