I'm really nervous about taking anti depressants as i have heard they are really hard to come off, would i be better trying something herbal 1st?
Answers:
Statistically not, not only are its chances of working much less, but even though it is a ' natural product ' it still has as many potential side effects and also drug interactions as Fluoxetine. It has not had a tiny fraction of the safety testing, nor does it have anywhere near as much patient years of experience.
