Reddit reviews NOW Supplements, Valerian Root (Valeriana officinalis) 500 mg, Herbal Supplement, 250 Veg Capsules

I'm a novice too, but the idea of WBTB is that you catch your big REM cycles at the end of your night of sleep. Also, waking up in the middle of the night makes it a lot easier to slide back into a sleep state with some conscious awareness.

So the idea is that you set an alarm in the middle of the night (anywhere from 3-6 hours after you fall asleep, I've heard mixed reports here) and when it goes off, deactivate it, and then try the WILD!

Your body will be eager to go back to sleep, because it was interrupted. This will put you in a good relaxed state, and shouldn't take you 5 hours :)

Also, people on here have mixed results with supplementation, but valerian root is a natural herb that has been used for centuries to relax and fall asleep more quickly. If you're the sort of person who has a lot of thoughts while trying to fall asleep, this might suit you. Keep at it!

I feel like I should clarify. I think that talking to your Dr. about your anxiety is a great idea. There are some decent medication options that could help both your anxiety and your migraines. So it would be a good conversation to have.

My point above is that you should state that you are NOT interested in taking any benzos. But be open to other options. My rule is that I always do research on a medication before I start taking it. And I always start by googling [MedicationName Withdrawal] and see what comes up. Some Drs are all to quick to prescribe stuff without giving any thought to the fact that getting off of the medication is going to be painful.

Ok that said, here's my recommendation for some non-prescription stuff you can investigate to reduce your anxiety.

• Magnesium. This can be very calming.
  
• L-Theanine
  
• 5-HTP This may increase your levels of Serotonin. This can possibly make your migraines better or worse. Differs by the individual.
  
• Kava
  
• Valerian Root
  
• GABA I've heard that "PharmaGABA" is much more likely to be effective that plain old GABA. Do some research. I don't really know.
  
• The All-In-One There are a number of these formulations. They just combine a bunch of stuff listed above.
  
  
  So there's some stuff you should do some research on. Some may relieve your anxiety but make your migraines worse. Some may be beneficial for both anxiety and migraines. It'll really be a trial and error to find out what works for your 'migraine brain'.
  
  I've provided Amazon links, but you can honestly get most of these at your local Drug Store (CVS, Walgreens, etc.)
  
  Remember always do your research, whether its a recommendation from your Dr, or some internet stranger. It's all just data points. Digest it, research it, and then make your own decision on what's right for your situation. I wish you the best!!
