My only concern with not taking St. John's Wort is that I know without it, I will have a major anxiety attack and fall into a depression. It's basically been a comfort blanket but a necessity at that for the last three years or so. Usually what happens when I do not take it is that something anxious will come over me, I usually cannot put my finger directly on it and then I get a wave of anxiety that makes my heart almost skip and then I begin to worry about the anxiety until I am in a full blown anxiety attack which leads to a nervous breakdown and into a depression where I cannot figure out what is causing it other than I continue to obsess and obsess and cry and want to die. I've never treated my major depressions or anxieties with homeopathy but am not against it either. It's just that when I hit that bottom, it usually comes on suddenly and I have no rational capability to get online to wait for an answer. I usually lose all my senses and nothing is comprehensible to me. So this is why I use St. John's Wort. Are you telling me that homeopathy can't be combined with my treatment? And if it can't, how do I get around it without falling into a major bottom?
