I was taking Olly Stress Relief gummies for a while to control anxiety, hyperactivity and racing thoughts, and they worked great. Recently I noticed that they were becoming a lot less effective and started searching for alternatives. This was my first choice and I’ve only used it this morning. Took one pill. So far I have noticed a lighter mood, lack of racing thoughts, and an overall feeling of being slowed down. I can focus on conversations better, and it slightly enhanced my ability to taste, flavors seem more vibrant.. I am a bit more “lazy feeling” as others mentioned, and I did get the lavender burps. They’re not horribly obnoxious for me, just a bit different. Burps lasted maybe half an hour. So far I like it.
Edit: it’s been over a week now. The first few days I dealt with random headaches on and off, but did get benefits as stated above. After my body adjusted I stopped having the headaches and the “lazy” feeling. The lavender burps are still a thing and so is short term lavender breath right after taking a pill. You can describe it like a light lingering, kinda like toothpaste has a minty aftertaste, but lavender instead. For the most part I would still say it helps. It does not hit as hard as the first few days, but it is helping somewhat.
Benefits for me: Less overstimulation in public, better ability to relax after work, anxiety is more “inconvenience”, easier to focus, deeper sleep, less irritability.
Cons for me: Short term lavender breath, vivid and unusual dreams, 2-3 day initial adjustment period for unpleasant side effects.
What I’m doing: Taking one pill around 7-7:30pm daily with lots of water. Taking late to sleep off any potential unpleasant initial effects, and get better sleep.

This brand is the one used in the clinical study. I found out about it from my psychiatrist. I switched from pharmaceutical anxiety medication to this! This is just as effective without the side effects! It does make me burp lavender. But I take the pills at night and I kinda like the taste of lavender as I’m going to sleep.

Contents look okay for the most part, box damaged.

These work really well! I let my adult daughter try some for some college auditions because she was so nervous. She said these really helped her. She now has her own box to help her calm down during the stressful moments. They don’t make you drowsy, which is perfect.

Like the chews and the flavor. Subtle relaxation, decreased tension, does not induce sleep and calming. Good buy.

This doesn’t make u go to sleep, but relaxes you so u can. I don’t like nor trust any drug. Over the counter nor especially pharmaceutical drugs. Only organic. My body at 75 is strong n can still lift 40 pound bags of pellets n walk two miles r more daily because I don’t abuse it w any drugs.these organic pills help me w ache occasional stressful day w my dementia husband so I can stay calm n help him.

Very effective in restlessness and inability to sleep. I suffer from bipolar disorder and use it at night when I am particularly restless, and it does the job with no drowsiness and no side effect. However, it may make you feel more tired. Watch out for that.

Calming but I have to take 2 in order to kinda get a little ease. However this was doctor recommended so I will give it enough of a chance.

This is a great purchase because the softgels are very easy to swallow, even for those who usually struggle with pills. The fact that they’re gluten-free is a major plus for those with dietary restrictions. There’s room for improvement when it comes to flavor variety, but overall, this product is a fantastic stress reliever!
