"Does St Johns Wort make anyone nervous?" , Wed 25 Jul 23:16


I have been taking SJW for 2 months going on 3. It has really changed my attitude for the better and I'm not depressed anymore. When I first started taking SJW I didn't have any side affects. For the last week or two I have been feeling very nervous. I take 900mg a day. My body also gets twitches in it now, which I never had in my life. It feels like when you are going to sleep and your body jumps because your body is relaxing. This happens in the day or at anytime. My shoulders will twitch,or my legs, my toes, once even my face twitched. When I do go to bed the twitching is worse and I am unable to get to sleep until my body relaxes. It is causing me to have insomnia. It seems like it doesn't happen until early evening. I read that SJW is supposed to make you relax not nervous. Has anyone ever heard of this? Is it a rare side affect although I didn't read it was. I was just wondering if anyone ever experienced nervousness or if their nervous in their body twitch at times?
God Bless,
Vanna

Hi Vanna,
Have you changed your brand?!, some brands really make me very nervous, so look into that and try the one that you feel more comfortable.

Hi Vanna, I posted my reaction to SJW today and took an
interest in your personal observation. I believe some of
us show certain sensitivities to medications. Wether they
are prescribed pharmaceutical or herbal. SJW helped my
mood but hindered my asthma. It is important to be in tune
with our bodies and if you reacting to a medication you should
discuss this with either a Pharmacist or your medical doctor.
Maybe SJW isn't for you or maybe it's an adjustment or that you
are taking too high a dosage for your body. Have you tried
decreasing the dose? Hope you find a solution to your problem.
Loved seeing "God Bless" at the end of your message and I will
return God's Blessings back to you.
Take care.
Sincerely,
Lolly from Canada

And so it goes and so it goes.
