Ah. Insomnia the first night, various symptoms of sleep-deprivation other than drowsiness the next day, zonked out completely the second night ... sounds close enough to what you described. (Basically the insomnia part lasting longer?) Hmm. Makes my guess seem pretty likely. Thanks.
I'm seriously thinking about getting a Real Medicine (TM) and stop fooling around with herbal stuff, because I have some really bad troubles getting to sleep.
This was MyoCalm P.M., supposed to keep my legs from waking me up in the middle of the night. On the plus side, my legs did not cramp, near-cramp, or twitch the first two nights, but that didnt do meany good the first nightwith the not sleeping a wink anyhow ... last night/this morning, my body split the difference -- insomnia that eventually did give way to brief (but interrupted) sleep, but calf pain on waking.
Last night wasn't much different from 30-40% of my nights without the MyoCalm, so unless I take it long enough to observe patterns, I don't know whether the supplement had anything to do with it. But that first night felt (at least subjectively) different from other bouts of insomnia -- I felt drugged -- to spark my question about valerian. (Especially with the number of atypical reactions I've had to central nervous system drugs.)
Depending on how often the really nasty effects occur, I may stop the experiment early.
