I have drunk chamomile tea before. I found that it helped; whether it was an actual physical response or just my brain remains to be seen, but I did get sleepy and restful. Unfortunately I am on some medicine (for leukemia) so I can't take it because there is evidence it interferes a bit.

I also don't believe that you are supposed to take them while on anti-anxiety meds.

Hi there - I agree that chamomile tea can help. It also helps to avoid stimulating drinks like coffee and strong tea, as the caffeine in them can make anxiety worse. Also beware of taking alcohol to 'relax' - it can have the opposite effect, particularly the morning after!
