Well, with things such as skullcap, I tend to only use it for situational things. I haven't used skullcap, but as I mentioned above, I do use passionflower for flying.
I'm not sure about taking it regularly though. When it comes to anxiety/relaxation remedies, I normally use it as needed and reach for passionflower, chamomile, hops, valerian, etc. Normally in tea. But there's something relaxing in having the tea in itself though.
