This article discusses lavender, whose chief component is linalool in sniffing form, can relieve anxiety due to the linalool, and it can increase GABA receptors. It’s worth asking your neuro about it. It’s the same mechanism as benzodiazepines but without the side effects and addictiveness.

Linalool is a terpene in medical marijuana, from the cannibis plant. It is used to reduce spasticity.

I'm getting "page not found" too.

They're probably all out smoking pot, and sniffing Lavender.

While they're at it, they're looking for the page not found, of course.

I did a search on Medscape and found the article. I can't paste the link, because I'm not registered at Medscape. If you are registered, just do a search for Linalool and you'll see this:

When I had anxiety problems, my doctor gave me the advice to try CBD oils, I found information about its usage on https://cannasos.com/.
