Very glad to hear you're feeling better bywena. Hang in there. I read something interesting about chamomile tea the other day. Apparently the reason it's so calming is that it acts very much like a benzo and is a powerful central nervous system depressant that is also very safe. I've always heard about its effectiveness but I'm always dismissive of it because I wouldn't think it was as good as a prescription sedative if I can just go to my grocery store and buy it anytime I want. Turns out this is one of those unique exceptions and it's the real deal. I've not investigated it enough myself but I'm going to now. I have also tried Passionflower and I know for sure that this is extremely effective for me so I'm going to really give the chamomile a try now.
Maybe you've tried that already I don't know. I just wanted to put that out there as maybe a back-up when you can't do the passionflower. FWIW

Also mullein tea can be calming and I know from experience that it's amazing for your lungs. I have asthma and I have mullein tea when it gets really bad. The stuff opens up my airways like nothing else within minutes. I believe it also has some real healing effects for the lungs. That's great since I was a cigarette smoker for almost 20 years (dumbest thing in the world but it's so addicting). Again, FWIW
