Ok, so it's all natural. That's good. Thanks.
Rescue Remedy is made of flowers sitting in water and the water extracts the flower essences. Like a type of tea. It's in a brandy base but you take only very very little so you don't get drunk or anything,. We are talking like 2-4 drops worth.
I've just found this forum and although this thread is a year old, I'd like to add my thoughts.
I have struggled with anxiety for many years and was introduced to Rescue Remedy back in the early nineties. I have always found Rescue Remedy has helped with my anxiety, maybe some people feel it is only a placebo effect, I'm not sure but whenever I have needed it, it has helped calm me down.
It can take a little while depending on the level of anxiety I am feeling and I only take it neat if I really need to, otherwise I use it with water.
