For any of you who have anxiety, or something, and don't like pills, you may want to try St. Johns Wort. It's a calming herb, usually in pill form. It's pretty mild, but has helped some people quite a bit. I did some research on it before I bought it. Anyway, I've been taking it for awhile. I don't really have...um...severe problems? (I don't know how to describe). But I am under the impression that it did help to stabilize and elevate my mood a bit. I've read that there are other people with "more problems" that have noticed a more profound affect. I'm mainly just a bit overreactive and moody, but still I think it "helped" me. There is a certain recommended dosage...3 pills which contain .3 percent of the compound Hypericin per pill. The bottles I bought from whole foods were like....$5/bottle, which had sixty, which at three per night lasted fifteen days. Not to bad.
Anyway, just seeing if I can help someone. Especially some of you with perhaps a bit more mild depression or anxiety. The side effects are negligible. Although I think you are not supposed to mix it if you are taking certain other pills for the same thing. Dunno, exactly.
