 Valerian Root

Does anyone else take this. I like to take 900-1350mg before bed, it helps me get to sleep...but I feel groggy in the morning sometimes. I notice that I get very lucid dreams when on it.

if you like valerian root check out melatonin. similar lucid dreaming experience, best enjoyed with a full nights sleep.

this is me on a bar, 3 methrolls (up 4 days), ketamine, and some good acid two years ago.

 Fail. Melatonin is one of the natural soporifics your body produces to induce sleep. If something produced by your body doesn't fit your definition of natural, then we must be speaking different languages.

He wasn't saying that about Melatonin, he was just quoting what that doctor said about valerian root in Fightclub.

man...no way, not for me at least. When ever I take that stuff, my legs become so fucking restless, then it makes it nearly impossible for me to fall asleep.

I heard its a sign I might have some kind of ADD, but I dunno...I don't know if I even think thats real.
Things like...benadryl makes me restless and not able to relax...and on amphetamines I am perfectly still and can sit in the same spot without moving for hours. I dunno

diphenhydramine = Dramamine?
Dramamine works well.
But I like melatonin and valerian root better...
There's other natural sleep aids as well?
Can anybody name a few?
Hops is one!
