I know this probably sounds like a really really stupid thing to suggest (because I TOTALLY scoffed when it was suggested to me by my (awesome) doctor when I pitched a fit about not wanting to be on meds) but I have to admit that St. John's Wort actually helps me. A lot. Like, I can REALLY tell when I forget to take it.

Admittedly it doesn't make everything marshmallows and roses (and that would be... scary...) but as it was described to me "when you're in a pit, it's nice to have a ladder"...

This is all my experience, of course. Everyone's results may vary. I am not a medical doctor and I do not play one on tv. :)
