St Johns Wort. Does it really help with depression?!
Question: My wife has taken that, and says that it does. You could also have a chemical imbalance. There are many herbal remedies that you could consider. Also the need to seek professional help. ( a good christian counselor) I would like to suggest for you to do some volunteer work. It will give you a feeling of self- es-teem. I have found out that when I help others, that my problems don't seem as bad. I feel a sense of acomplishment in my life, and self-worth. I hope you will experience the same.

No, it is a placebo.
some users think it does, but the scientific studies say NO.
it helped immensly with me when i was very very very depressed but unfortunately i was one of the few people that are allergic to it.
No, it has the placebo effect but in reality does nothing to lift depression.
BIG PHARMA has used its money, power, and influence to ensure that American studies show little, or no positive effect from its use, to make their antidepressants look more effective, in comparison. An unbiased, double blind German study has shown its effectiveness, even in cases of clinical depression, but it can cause stomach upsets in some users, and may take several weeks to become effective. It compares favourably with antidepressants in terms of side effects, and has a very low risk factor (it won't cause suicides, as antidepressants have been proven to do), but herbal dosages are subject to fluctuation. See section 2, at http://www.ezy-build.net.nz/~shaneris for a wealth of detail.
nothing will ever help, the girl who cries wolfe,
and begs for attention, in sick twisted ways.
ok! now I got ya,
It's not a "happy herb" but it can ease some anxiety.
Imagine a sharp pin that you keep poking yourself with. That is your anxiety.
Now imagine rubbing the tip of the pin against a brick (this is St. John's Wort) for about a minute.
Then you resume poking yourself.
The pin is still there and it still hurts, but the sharpness has dulled a bit so it doesn't hurt as bad.
In short, it does not take the pain away or drug you out, but it can make things a little more bearable for a while.
