Saint John's Wart works ok for some people with mild depression. But it has a poor record with moderate or severe depression. It also tends to make people jittery.
> Thanks for all the encouragement and advice! Yes, some people are posting some pretty scary things on this forum. As someone who has very little experience with anti depressant meds, it can be frightening. I have read much about St John's Wart and it is supposed to do a great job
