Valerian Root, Passion Flower, and Magnesium are all reasonably safe (anything can be overdone). See if you can give your buddy a few dollars and have him give you a couple of the pills and then you can try them for a few days and see how you feel.

As for the fish oil, take about 6 grams per day and spread them out as much as reasonable (for example: 6 dosings would be better than 3 but only if it's convenient enough that you actually take all six doses and don't end up skipping them)

I was going to say how melatonin doesn't really do much as a muscle relaxant, but reading that article is most interesting.

Looks like some magnesium and melatonin if your ill might go along way.


I've ordered and just recieved some gaba, which is supposed to be a good muscle relaxant (which is why I ordered it. Its also good at releasing GH, but we'll see)

VALERIAN root. For a guy in college, your spelling blows chunks. Maybe you do need some quality Zzzzzs, mate.
