In reply to SJW - hypericum; depression, anxiety isolated?, posted by sdb on July 23, 2006, at 16:46:46
I'm no Linkadge or Blueberry (who know alot about SJW) but they think that SJW affects (inhibits the reuptake of?) GABA too, which is umm, involved with anxiety. Certainly I wasn't anxious on SJW Kira brand.
I don't think that SJW alleviates anxiety because it alleviates depression. Its much more complicated than that. Besides which I'm taking an herb which uplifts my mood considerably, but which doesn't do anything for anxiety.
Kind regards
Meri
