Everyone who knows me thinks I'm just a "happy go lucky" gal who doesn't have a care in the world. BOY, are they dead wrong on that one. I suffer from social anxiety...due in part to my overweight appearance which by NO FAULT OF MY OWN, the overeating stems back from a bad childhood experience at the age of 5. Since the birth of my twin girls a few years back, I've never been the same and started suffering depression daily. So, I'm obese, overwhelmed with 3 small children and little to no help, social aniexty, road anxiety, feeling of being a perfectionist or calling it quits, and now I cry all the time for no apparent reason. My spirit is crushed and my physical state is not of a 30 something person...I feel 80 years old each day.
My doctor had put me on Efexor 150 mg XR which was great the past year. I felt like a HUGE weight off my shoulders and nothing really bothered me. I was able to go out to alot of places and I could smell the roses so to speak. I made the decision to get off the anti-depressants because I was always sweating and that really embarassed me with people looking at me like I was menopausal or something. I also didn't want to go back to the doctor to hear another LECTURE about my weight. So, here I am. I firmly believe in herbal remedies and I'm hoping this is the alternative for me.
does anyone know where I can purchase the KIRA brand SJW? I know amazon had it, but I was wanting to try some TODAY. feeling horrible now that I'm off of Efexor. :o( hoping to find some nationally known retailer that sells it on their shelves. walgreens, cvs, walmart, etc????
please advise..thx, angela
