Herbal Remedies for Depression and Anxiety

January 4, 2008 – 2:47 pm

I have found the idea that natural herbs and chemical compounds found in nature may help to effectively treat and defeat depression, anxiety and mood swings in both women and men very intriguing.

Another thing I have seen with prescribed antidepressants is that they too often cause unwanted side effects, even throwing some with severe depression into suicidal tendencies in some cases. This is extremely dangerous, and should be addressed with more urgency than it currently is in my opinion.

Many people also report great difficulty in “weaning”themselves off of medically administered antidepressants, many times having horrible symptoms of withdrawal, and feeling they can never truly come off of the antidepressant. This becomes a vicious cycle for some.
