Bach Flower Remedy - anyone used it?

I have used this on my horse and it seemed to work, and the dog on firework night, when it didn't seem to work, but I just wondered if anyone has experience of using it on themselves to calm them down??? I get a bit flustered about flying (due to a bad experience which put me off a bit) and I was thinking of using some of this on myself? Anyone actually had experience of it working on themselves?? Otherwise, I shall have to go in the bar, but 7.00 am. is NOT good!!! and being a non-drinker it's even worse!

Lol Inca, I'm not that bad, and I once went on that Valium (Librium actually)but I felt so weird and spaced out I didn't bother after the first day. So you reckon it might calm my nerves a bit then, coz I do get nervous..... ooooeerr!!

I used it once, but it didn't seem to do anything. Have you tried the Kalms tablets, herbal ones from chemists or supermarkets, I know my Mum used to swear by them.

Do you mean the Rescue remedy by Bachs or is the flower one something else? I have tried the Rescue remedy although I had to have a few syringefuls of it but it seemed to be okay

Lol, well you would Foxy!! I am thinking of rigging up some kind of intravenous Did it work for you though??? I think it's the same thing, it's the Bach's Rescue Remedy spray, the flower one? I did a trial run with it this morning and didn't feel any different, but then I wasn't nervous going to work!!! Maybe it only works if you ARE in a nervous state?

I don't know really - perhaps its one of those things that you feel it works cos you have taken something I got the spray one and the syringe one too for Benji at firework time last year but I think I use it more than he does

A bottle of Baileys might work
