I've been taking these supplements for about 5 months now because I cannot sleep without them. From what I've read Valerian is safe for 4-6 weeks at a time.

I no longer drink coffee or any other stimulants. When I lay down to sleep I'm tired but my mind just races. It's not stressful thoughts or anything, just random nonsense that won't stop. I never had this issue until about 6 months ago, but now my mind won't shut off without some sort of supplement.

I didn't want to take prescription drugs for it and chose the natural route but now I'm having heart palpitations in my head. It's a strong feeling of my heart beating in my head that sometimes causes my head to sway with the pulse. This began a few weeks into the supplements. Coincidence?
