Hi there, I'm new to this and was hoping for some input to shine some light on this situation. Over the last few months I have experienced heavy anxiety which seems to be getting worse. With this constant severe anxiety I have also noticed that I'm becoming more gloomy and depressed as each week goes by. I talked to my doctor about this and he prescribed Effexor which I took last night and had a total freakout...i was dizzy, i started crying, my pupils were dialated..I've read up on it and I don't think such a severe drug is right for me. I have made a following appointment with my doctor to discuss this but I've also been researching SJW...I was wondering if SJW could be used in conjunction with anxiety and depression? I need something cause it's starting to get overwhelming and I don't want to reach a point that it is too much. Any input would be wonderful. Thanks.

ya, i'm the same way. my body can't seem to handle the bigger drugs. i was prescribed paxil last month. never took any though. so, yesterday i started sjw- in liquid form. it is absorbed quicker in the system than capsules or tabs. try the brand- natures answer.liquid form, 1ml , 3 x's a day. take it at the same time everyday- don't skip a dose, or it won't work- remember, you want to get it in your system quickly so you'll feel better.i've had depp. and anxiety for almost a yr. i was getting so sick of it, so i tried this stuff and so far it has worked for me.remember, everyone is different...................

Fyi if you give it a go and it doesn't work you can try another brand. I find that I react differently to the different brands that are out there on the market. Also get a brand with a good reputation.

I would say forget the doctor, and find an herbalist. If you're just starting with depression medication, it's not too late to get a clean natural start. He'll probably just prescribe you another medication and mess you up more. Try St John's Wort. I take a few Omega fish oil gel caps for anxiety. It works for me.
