I took the advice of a herbalist/homeopath and went onto St Johns Wart, and Guarana; I took the exact doses I was told do. She did not take into account the sleeping pills OR the anti-depressants I was on and I ended up in the ER with respiratory distress and uncontrolled blood pressure.
Some of these medications are usefull and worthwhile but NO MATTER WHAT Always tell your Doctor what else you are thinking of taking, because "Natural" meds have just as many contra-indications as other meds do...

Thanks for this reply RHiannon.
Luckily different treatments work diferently for diferent people.
I am very sorry to hear about your ER experience and am glad you are okay, but this could have been avoided if you had read some of the
self help books out there. I agree that you should always inform both your doctor or any other professional you are getting treatment from, it can be very dangerous if you do not.
However none of the treatments I listed involve any form of "natural" treatment which could possibly have contra indications.
All the best to you and I wish you the best.
