OWoman Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Having said that I have not tried a herbal alternative to an anti depressant - I'm sure there must be something out there though. St John's Wort is most commonly used - but be aware that it renders The Pill useless, so if you're on The Pill you'll need back up contraception if you're sexually active.
tft Posted November 20, 2010 Posted November 20, 2010 What JThorne said +1. Great perspective. As for herbal supplements, some time ago a poster (Wildsoul I think if you want to look it up) suggested 5-HTP as an alternative to meds. Worked for me at a time I was really low, so i guess it's worth you researching to see of it may suit you. Hugs. Remember, you can make this all better.
