St. John's Wort: If feeling depressed and this is ongoing, you should first have this evaluated by your primary care physician or a psychiatrist. Mild to moderate depression may respond to st. John's wort 300mg tid. The brand you pick should be standardized to 3% hypericin and 2-5% hyperforin as well. If suicidal thoughts, please work with your doctor and do not limit yourself to st. John's wort.
