A melatonin pill and a Valerian root capsule. Available at Rite-Aid over the counter. Your anxiety will turn into a yawn. No coffee!

Hopefully you purchase the valerian "standardized" extract...they're a little more expensive but worth it.


Melatonin is a cortisol antagonist, and a great sleep aid but can magnify depressive tendencies if you have them.

Valerian is quite amazing and I find it prolongs my dreams into an almost continuous thread. It is the best OTC sleep aid for me, and I have tried them all. In combination with Kava Kava and melatonin, it's nighty night. Take at least one hour before bed time on an empty or near-empty stomach. Of course if that doesn't work, it's Ambien time, but that's another story.
