Nikkicoop,

I would be very careful with St. John's Wort. It is what SSRI antidepressant's are designed to imitate. A better supplement would be L-Tryptophan. Your body knows how to properly process L-Tryptophan. It will allow your cells to regulate the serotonin processes better. L-Tryptophan is in milk, turkey and many other foods. Your body is used to it, in fact, it makes 5-HTP from it. 5-HTP is the precursor to serotonin. It does not know what to do with all of the other substances in St. John's Wort. Using St. John's is like washing your hands with a firehose at full blast. It may work but now you have to get up off your backside and get your clothes dry.
