`#CúChulainn suffered from alternating bouts of malaise and rage. It was quite possibly drug-induced, perhaps through use of Amanita, but according to the stories, he was treated by being bathed in infusions of #Meadowsweet. In #Irish it is also known as Crios Conchulainn, which I believe is translated as ‘Cuchulainn’s Belt. Maybe he carried the herb in a little pouch or amulet attached to his belt, in case it was required to soothe the hero's fits and rages.
It was believed to be a herb that could aid in falling asleep, but in folklore, there was danger in that, for it was a sleep from which one might not awake. And according to legend, #CúChulainn fell into a sleep which lasted a whole year, during which time he appeared to leave his body and go into the #Otherworld, where he had an affair with Fand, the wife of sea-God, Manannán.
Interestingly, it is from this plant that aspirin is derived`
