Hi Everyone,
I'm new here.. wanting to find out more on SJW.
I have suffered with depression for a long, long time. About five years ago I was diagnosed with Hepatitis C. Listed among the symptoms for HepC is Depression.
Since 1990 I have been prescribed numerous meds for the depression. In all probability, they have helped from time to time but when I found out about the Hepatitis I began to be more critical about the chemicals I was putting in my mouth.
The problem: NONE, NOT ONE of the psychiatrists who treated me ever asked about my liver disease. The problem with this is that the Liver has to process all the meds. With a diseased Liver, one could cause additional problems, not only for the liver but also for the brain, body, bile ducts, etc. Because of the toxicity of the drugs being ingested, the levels and the effects can pile up when a diseased liver cannot fully process the meds.
I have now started taking SJW as a last resort. I refuse to take any of the drugs which physicians have prescribed.
Here's hoping that SJW will help with my depression.
If anyone has had similar experience, please let me know.
