Tri-Cleanse is OK, but I don't know if it is dependable enough for me to drop the magnesium citrate at night. I think the magnesium also helps with sleep, energy, and feeling calm. I stopped taking it for at least a week and I definitely felt some extra fatigue. The harder I exercise, the more magnesium I seem to need.
St. John's Wort, Perika brand, seems to be working. I think my friend has been taking it for a little over two weeks, at three pills a day. The real test will be in a week or so, when the PMS/PMDD rears its ugly head.
My friend still suffers from some fatigue, however, so we're using Chinese herbs to help with that. The depression definitely comes on bad when she is tired. I'm adding bupleurum and albizia to directly work on depression, prepared aconite and cinnamon twig to warm her up and boost metabolism (kidney yang).
I'll let you know in a few weeks if SJW is still working. We'll switch to Kira in a few days when the bottle of Perika runs out.
