Just wondering because when I would take percocets or vicodin it would help with my anxiety and give me energy. Thats why I want to know if theres anything NATURAL I can take to give me that feeling?

Where do you think opiates came from? the real difference between what you are taking and what you could find "naturally " is that we have investigated the producer of the chemical compound responsible for pain relief and developed ways to synthetically produce them, or harvest those compounds and make them available in more appropriate dosages. sometimes you need many parts of the plant to get a medically useful effect, other times you only need a fraction of a part. instead of having to weigh it out on your own, you are provided with a specific amount of the compound in pill form.

Isn't marijuana/ weeds and opium is natural? You can plant it in your garden But it's illegal too :)

Go to your local natural/ health food store and ask tell the clerk what problem your trying to solve (anxiety and lack of energy) and they should be able to show you the natural products they have in stock for that. Yoga or some other meditation is something you should also consider.

Iceberg lettuce has something similar to opiates in it, recommended in one of my books for better relaxation and sleep in the evenings. A lady told me along time ago not to feed my rabbits too much lettuce (I was picking wild lettuce from a field for them) because it had opiates in it.

I use two things for extra energy: * Bee Pollen - 1000mg - makes me feel like being on speed * Bionic Sports Band - nothing to swallow - wear it on your wrist for up to 6 hours a day. When wearing that the bee pollen is not needed, but can be used other times.
