No more anxiety
83 people found this helpful
No More Depression or Anxiety attacks! My family has a strong history of depression, and I began to notice signs in myself around age 35. My doctor prescribed various medications, but they didn’t work well and caused severe anxiety attacks. After reading about St. John’s Wort's success in Europe, I decided to try it. I stopped all prescriptions and have been using St. John’s Wort for 15 years now. I am free from depression and anxiety attacks, feeling quite mellow instead. I take 2 in the morning and 1 at noon. I’m very pleased with the quality and price of the Now Foods brand.

Calmer and brighter
71 people found this helpful
I did not expect such an effective result. I feel calmer, and my sleep has improved significantly. The depression has largely disappeared. After two weeks, I forgot to take it regularly, as I had developed interests and energy I had lacked before. Now, I only take it occasionally when my nerves act up.

Life feels brighter

Good stuff! I have been taking this for a couple of weeks alongside 5-HTP, and I genuinely believe it is helping with my depression. I recently expressed to my husband that "things seem brighter", and it’s true. Walking outside, the sky appears bluer, colours are more vivid, and my outlook on life is much more positive. I recommend trying this before prescription medications to avoid the awful side effects and costs!

Effective natural remedy
5 people found this helpful
St. John's wort is known to be an antidepressant, supported by numerous studies for treating mild to moderate depression. I began using it and instantly regretted not starting earlier. Changes were evident within two weeks: my mood improved, I felt more energetic, my sleep quality increased, and fatigue lessened. One must be cautious, as it can affect drug metabolism and make skin more sensitive to UV rays. I do not take medications, but those who do should consult a specialist.

Natural substitute

It has aided me significantly. After 6 weeks of use, I felt much better; I suffer from depression and anxiety. Due to negative reactions to antidepressants, my psychiatrist advised this natural alternative. After almost a year, it remains the only effective option for me. I highly recommend it.

Effective herbal remedy
4 people found this helpful
After learning about this herb, I started taking St John's Wort tincture three times a day about a year after giving birth. It immediately alleviated my postpartum depression, lifting my mood and thoughts. I truly love this herb and, having taken prescription antidepressants previously, I found this worked much better. Highly recommend it.

Synergistic effect
4 people found this helpful
I've battled anxiety and depression since my teens, impacting various life aspects. After years of using the SSRI sertraline, which has many side effects, I find St. John's wort equally effective. It took some adjustments to find the right dosage, but combining it with l-theanine boosted results tremendously. For me, 300 mg of St. John's twice daily, alongside 100 mg of l-theanine, has been transformative.

Positive changes
1 people found this helpful
Initially sceptical, I found that after starting St John’s Wort, I felt calmer, slept better, and was less depressed! It’s positively affected my happiness, and I’ve been combining it with L-tryptophan for boosting serotonin. The capsules are of good quality, causing no stomach pain, and are an acceptable size!

No side effects

I am grateful to iHerbs for the swift delivery. St. John's Wort is a brilliant alternative for those, like myself, struggling with moderate depression. Unlike prescribed antidepressants that come with side effects, this has none and effectively alleviates anxiety. After years of use, it remains my go-to, especially in winter. I take three capsules a day and feel fantastic. The pricing is reasonable and I highly recommend it.
