How does passion flower work for you? Have you tried with without all the other stuff or compared the other stuff with vs without out?
It seems to be inconclusive whether or not its anxiolytic.

Many studies such as the one above say it doesn’t work. Some say it does. One study said it works as well as olanzapine.
So it’s actually a gaba a agonist? I kept reading is. It’s being called a “modulator” of gaba. I’m aware benzos are gaba modulators and not proper agonists. I don’t know the mechanistic nuance behind all of this just what they are labeled as, but would love to know
It’s also go harmaline which is MAOi. Don’t know what kind of feel that adds beyond gabaminergic activity
Curious about trying some I may give it an order. I drink chamomile for its apigenin. It binds to the bexodiazpime site but its activity there isn’t super well known. Apparently show no axyolitic response in mice but reduced locomotor activity in mice. It just tastes good and smells good too so I take it for that also
I have a bunch of different teas I’ve tried for their anxiolytic effects. Most useless. Chamomile I use a lot but not sure if it works well as I take REAL drugs as well.
I know chamomile puts my partner to sleep well and they don’t take any substances at all enen OTC sleep aids.
