The best antidepressant I ever used, based on response (and side-effect profile), was SJW. However, after about a year, I stopped using it. As with other peoples' response to trying to restart an antidepressant that once worked in the past, I have never again had that sort of response to new trials of SJW. Maybe I should never have stopped.
