Hello my fellow sjw takers:
I just started taking St. John's Wort with a combination of Kava Kava yesterday. SJW 200 mg and Kava Kava 200 mg. After taking the pill about an hour maybe even a half hour later I feel very calm. Could this just be a placebo effect or could this actually work that quickly? I've read many individuals say that it usually takes a week or two before you feel the effects. Could it be the Kava Kava that relaxes me this quickly or does even that take time to take effect? Either way it's helping and I hope it keeps it up. By the way this website is great. By far better than any other. Everyone who posts on this website is very empathetic and generally care for eachother. It's almost like this website is a fraternal and sorority organization. Thanks to all and may God keep you healthy.

Most of the people who write here are taking SJW only. The effects of SJW tend to take longer to come on-stream.
In your case you have added kava, and it's most likely kava which has given you the calming effect. Kava is amazing stuff; it works primarily as an anti-anxiety agent. South Pacific islanders use (and abuse) it, where it tends to replace alcohol as a social substance.
I used to take it occasionally for insomnia and it worked brilliantly.

For the record and for many years I took a brand of SJW that had Kava Kava in it too, and it was great. In fact somewhere on this website it may still even say that I still take the one with both. I wish I could still get it with Kava Kava but it's no longer for sale in Canada, so that's that.
