St Johns Wort for anxiety disorders?

I asked once b4 but didnt get any answers. I know its supposedly good for depression, but does anone have any first hand experience concerning it with anxiety/panic disorder also, and not just for depression?
thanks

I have generalize anxiety disorder, complete with panic attacks and all. And St John's Wort didn't really work for me. But then again, no treatments I've tried yet have.

Since so many of the medicines used to treat depression are also used to treat anxiety disorders, it should work. I had used it alongside Zoloft, which is a fairly common treatment.

I had read that it has more of a placebo effect than actual treatment with results.

Yes this will help you with anxiety and if it doesn't then you need to see a dr. or psychiatrist not because you are nuts or anything just to make sure you don't have a panic anxiety disorder. Only if the St. Johns wort doesn't work and ask a hurbologist about the amount you should take. Otherwise it may be a disorder and some people have to be on anti anxiety pills because of that. Its normal for some people because some of us have a circut so to speak in our brains that is just not as responsive as it should. Take care Heather

also try and get knowledgeable about samE & sceletium. They should both work for anxiety and depression. Sceletium recently became popular but i personally believe it works well for some people. Read more on :

try shiatsu treatment.

It can be. If you go that route know that taking too much can be toxic.
