I haven't hear of those, but I have health books and will look it up later and e-mail you if you receive e-mails!. However, I have read that it is safe to treat depression with St!. John's Wort, which is a natural medicine!. It is said to relieve depression, enhances brain power, eases symptoms of anxiety, and insomnia!. Has few if any harmful side-effects and cost far less than prescription antidepressants!. Edit: Aurum Metallicum is prescribed by homeopaths to alleviate feelings of worthlessness, low self-esteem and despair!. It provides hope!.!.!.!.said to be particularly beneficial to those generally hardworking individuals who have had life-altering events !.!.!.!. SECOND EDIT:
