I heard that this supplement can be used to help with depression. Does anyone have any experience with this, or know something else that can help?

Healthcliff,

Sure it has been found to be helpful. But there are other many suhc herbs and you will need to get a professional help to decide which one to use. Suggest you see your naturopath or homeopath.

I never really had much success with St Johns wort.
My favorite herb for making you calm is Valerian root.
Try that one.

I had no luck with SJW.

I tried Valerian root for as a sleeping aid. Next morning I felt jittery although I had a good night sleep. Wasn't really sure if the Valerian root had caused the problem so tried it again, next morning I felt even worse. I have heard a lot of good reports about both sleeping and calming effects but I wont be taking it again.
