> No, niacinamide does work quickly. Almost like a benzo. I've taken it for brief periods to counter anxiety while waiting for a doctor's appointment or to get to sleep at night. I'm just not sure it would be good for my friend who is withdrawing from benzos now as it may have some effect on GABA receptors.

Passionflower and Skullcap sound like good ideas. Would you take them in tincture form?

I would think niacinamide is a great idea if it works like that. Forget trying to figure out what it does with GABA. Who knows. It is a beneficial natural substance and if it is helpful then great. Worry about it later. That's how I see it anyway.

The other herbs...yeah I prefer tinctures because you can do custom size doses a lot easier than capsules or pills.
