Advantages: Ummm.. not too pricy (If it works then its good value) No side effects on me

Disadvantages: Didnt work AT ALL. Realy didn't feel anything.

Riiiiiight!
I brough this product in roughly april time this year. I have been taking it three times a day (as stated - morning lunch and evening) for ALMOST THREE MONTHS and..... NOTHING!

I feel pretty peeved, but I know that everyone is different and what might work for one person, may not work for another.

I'll start to explain my situation to help others see if it'd be suitable for their siuation...

I brought the 'Herb Tech' brand of the product. (standardised extract) from Holland and Barretts. I brought it becuase some days I felt pretty down, maybe felt a bit sad and like I wanted to sit and do nothing! (Just sorta zoned out). I also get anxious alot. You could call it nervous. I feel out of place in some social group situations and unconfident when walking alone. I also have the classic chewing my lip syndrome, wanting to be alone syndrome, and just I can get aggiated over small things.

Anyway, i'd class myself as having mild anxiety and possibly very mild depression (obviously i'm no pschiatrist!) so I did alot of reading and decided to choose St Johns Wort as i'd read some good reviews and hear it was good for mild depression and can help anxiety... Well....

It did nothing! I've taken it for 3 months and nadda!!

It also tastes pretty gross (I got capsules)

I'll be off to try 'Bach Rescue Remedey' next. If you get worried/anxious like me, then look it up and give it a go. It definately got more 5 star reviews than St Johns.

SUMMARY: may work for you, not for me!

Summary: Hit & Miss I guess..
