anxiety

Hello! I’ve been reading about how to choose and prepare Kava for awhile, and I finally decided to order Nambawan Kava Powder - 1/2 LB from Bula Kava House. It should be here tomorrow. I bought it off of someone’s recommendation for their favorite, but I see now in some posts that it might not...

I started using kava to eradicate sporadic panic attacks motivated by supplementation. It worked super well, and kava brought my sanity again. From here, it may be a totally subjective opinion, but I felt that kava brought me cognitive benefits and made me have a softer view of life. I'm more...

Hello, I'm new here! I read a lot of you struggle with similar issues that I do: anxiety and alcohol (or substance) abuse. I'm glad to find my tribe of people who have found this kava plant to help to combat both and sho want to find better alternatives for their mental health. My anxiety is...

Hello! I am new to trying varieties of kava. I have only tried a generic Vanuatu variety from mountain rose herbs for sleep. I am interested in trying a “heady” variety for uplifting qualities during the day but I’m concerned about the effects with anxiety. I experience social anxiety and panic...

Hello! I have pretty regular insomnia as well as anxiety and panic disorder (ptsd) and I am interested in trying Kava! I have tried kava for sleep, I have no idea what variety it was, and it has been the only thing that really helped. That’s what led me to try some more. I had no idea there were...

(First time post on the forum) Hello, I use a Kava brand called, 'NOW Supplements'. Available on iherb (and possibly eBay.) Nice and relaxing -- 2 - 3 capsules, every 1.5 - hours. (250 mg per capsule) Prepared with warm almond milk & an omega-3 supplement... Sometimes taken capsules...

So I recently got some Single Cultivar Loa Leka Taveuni Island from artofkava in and it’s my first time really doing kava. I was recommended to start out at 4 tbsp. So I did, the first 3 times no effect, then the fourth time I felt super heavy in body effects, and also started having pretty bad...

Hi, my name is Jennifer and I was introduced to kava just last week. I'm struggling to feel anything beyond the tongue-numbing, even at a local kava bar. Tonight I tried the Kalm with Kava Borongoru, three 8oz glasses (so 6 shells?) of first wash in my Aluball, and two 8oz glasses of a second...

Hi everyone! I found this after looking into a recommendation from a friend to try the Gaia kava. I have bad anxiety and get panic attacks. I have been prescribed Xanax for those attacks but I do not like knowing I’m taking a pharmaceutical to feel better. I am also quite sensitive to meds so...

:) I have never used Kava before. What brought Kava to my attention is because my Liquid Lorazapam (dysphagia) is on long term back order, meaning it is not being manufactured again in the future to anyone's knowledge. I was looking for a very sedating/calming type of Kava, to prevent me from...

When I look online all I can find is sites saying no because of the potential for liver damage which we all know is bs. My 2 yr old daughter suffers from autism and her head hurts a lot because of a medical condition that we haven't been able to deal with yet because of insurance. Watching her...
