Skullcap is known for being helpful in the breaking of addictions by soothing the tension that comes from withdrawal. It is especially helpful for weaning off of sleeping pills. As a sedative and an antispasmodic, Skullcap is very helpful in treating anxiety, nerves, and convulsions of various kinds. It has been known to help with epilepsy, seizures, and hysterical states.
