Hello, I feel compelled to let others out there know how sjw has helped my daughter. She is 10 years old and has had problems since she was 5 yrs old. Deppression/ anxiety/panic and obsessive compulsion run strongly in our family. My sister became very sick when she was also only 10 years old. I did not become ill until my 20's. Needless to say years later my sister and I are on paxil. I desperately feared putting my 10 year old on these drugs. But yet watching her suffer was unbearable. I studied heavily the prospects of sjw. and 5-htp. Then we got an appointment with an herbalist.She has her on a liquid sjw with some other herbs (skullcap,vervain,etc..) . I asked the mg. she was on and she takes the 300mg. 3x a day and 50 mg. of the 5-htp 2x a day. She also did acupuncture. Needless to say my daughter is doing so much better! She is a totally renewed child. I am so thankful! I could almost watch her slowly transform back into a normal happy child that plays and laughs. That cares about the little things a ten year old should care about. It has been a little over 2 months. She didn't feel significant improvement until after the 1st 4 weeks. You definately have to wait out the 2 month time period for the full effect.My biggest concern now would have to be that it does not stop working. I almost feel like I'm holding my breath. But I have seen on this sight it has stayed working for many poeple.So hopefully the same will happen for her. Also I hope this may help other parents out ther find help for there children. Thank-you to all who have shared on this sight it has helped us tremendously. lebohead

Hi, I have two boys and cannot understand your decisions. You said your daughter had problems since shes was 5 years old! Wow thats a little young. You may damage your daughter further by telling her there is something wrong with her and giving her drugs. Not all things in life are "conditions". Shes has probably Learned to deal with the world a little wrong. At the ages 5-10 children learn so much from theyre parents. Your best bet is to look at the way your daughter is learning to deal with the world and better help her emotionally. Giving a child medications so early will give a false sense that theyre is something wrong with them instead of recognizing things and dealing with them properly. A good example would be ME, Here I am taking SJW for my own thoughts and emotions..and guess what... my mother , who raised me, has been an alchoholic (self-medicator) her whole life. "Nip the problem at the bud" while you can... not with SJW
