valerian root in large doses has similar effects to benzodiazapiem tranquilizers such as valium, albeit to a weaker degree.

Seen as you mentioned Valerian, that stuff can give you really insane dreams if you take it at night... it took me a while to connect the two, but, I am pretty sure it was the Valerian.

aye, as an aside, if you are interested in provoking intense dreaming combine valerian and vitamin b-6 before sleep.

Honestly Brian... the dreams were why I stopped messing about with Valerian... it started to scare me a little bit.
I am not going to go into them but ehh, yeah, even the fact that I can think up those things is disturbing enough, never mind actually experiencing them.

 

[sweetoblivion]

true, however benzodiazapiems such as valium, xanax, temazipam and ativan are perscriped for panic attacks and anxiety disorders, and these drugs are highly addictive, both psychologically and physically. i am not, of course, saying that they are bad: in fact the can really help many people, but utmost care should be observed regarding their use.

Good point Brian! I was referring to anti-depressants, but yeah the medications prescribed for what dearly demented is describing can be far more addictive.
Each to their own, whatever works you is what's right.

yo listen up here's a story
about a little guy that lives in a blue world
and all day and all night and everything he sees
is just blue like him inside and outside
blue his house with a blue little window
and a blue corvette
and everything is blue for him and hisself
and everybody around
cos he ain't got nobody to listen to

i'm blue da ba dee da ba die...

i have a blue house with a blue window.
blue is the colour of all that i wear.
blue are the streets and all the trees are blue.
i have a girlfriend and she is so blue.
blue are the people here that walk around,
blue like my corvette, it's standing outside.
blue are the words i say and what i think.
blue are the feelings that live inside me.

i'm blue da ba dee da ba die...

I quit my job on wednesday and had a mental dream that night that I fucked a million quid into a lake. Quite symbolic I thought the money was in a real childhood story looking treasure chest and a few of my mates were giving me guff about throwing away a million quid after it, a fairly strange dream I thought

ah yeah.. sure fluoxetine is an SSRI and they're usually not as strong as tricyclics. they only give you tricyclics if you're a proper mentaller

 

[Juno]

they only give you tricyclics if you're a proper mentaller

Ah being on tricyclics doesn't make you a mentaller . They're not stronger than SSRIs - just more old school and useful for people who don't respond to SSRIs. SSRIs are more commonly prescribed cos they allegedly have fewer side effects.
