There doesn't seem to be too much overlap in terms of use- (though i think that huang qin is the root).

Skullcap was the first plant I ever walked with and it changed my life. I love it as a nervine. Thank you so much for sharing this!!

I am a thin vatta, not pitta, and it is so incredibly helpful to me but I never need more than 10 drops. I tincture or tea. It gives me the effect of having meditated, and when first learning to meditate, it helped me to learn to sit long enough. It is a lovely plant, with delicate blossoms, highly reactive, it will wilt when injured, and yet its root system is incredibly strong in contrast. much like myself. for those of us lacking earth groundedness, perhaps too much in the head or worrisome, it is a great ally.

I had always liked it but was unable to find it in Canada these days until recently it showed up again. Last night, my husband tried some to help him sleep. He takes a sleeping pill regularly (Zoplicone) because of his rotating shifts. He also takes a mild anti-depressant (Venaflaxine.). I was just wondering if you could tell me if you think it's safe to take with an anti-depressant or not, and if it's safe for daily use. I love this herb but I want to be careful with my husband.

I did not know it was highly recommend for the Pitta personalities and fine for day time consumption. I will be increasing my intake of this plant and think of the quiet peaceful streams it meanders and grows by perhaps getting one step closer to my personal calm!!! Thank you 7song for sharing your appreciation and experience with this plant. That's funny how you ate many plants w/little affect. That made me chuckle and smile!

Just purchased some seed this year and am going to try to cultivate. We do have a native skullcap up here in the Ozarks. Will have to do some research to find out which one it is.

I didn't know about it's ability to strengthen other herbs in formula. I'm excited to try it in this way. I love using it with milky oat pods as a nervous system trophorestorative that is helpful for most people. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Very informative.
