Cam,
Sorry to butt in here but I have a few questions on SJW myself. Thanks for giving Wendy so much info. It's been a great source of knowledge.

I have taken SJW before but it made me sleepy so I took it at bedtime. I don't know what the dosage was. I took 2 like the bottle said .

I am currently on Paxil 10mg daily. I did take 20 for a week per docs suggestion from last time but found the blurred vision etc to be too much. I am doing better on just the 10 mg dose. Less anxious, more stable moods and actually a good mood on occasion. I am not looking for a miracle pill. I know what is causing my depression and I am working on the situation. I just need some help getting thru this time so that I don't get into a deep depression and give up. Been there, scared me.

Ok, this is wordy but sometimes your replies are too!!
I am currently taking the Paxil. If I discontinue that how long should I wait before starting the SJW? I don't know that I am gonna do that yet but I am thinking about it. I prefer no meds but it would be good if I could use something natural instead. Also do you know if the drowsiness side affect is something that the body adjusts to or if that is something one has to deal with while taking it.

Thanks in advance. Chime in here Wendy if you have any info. I am also interested about the taste of the SJW tea. Nasty? Tolerable? Pleasant? I know in some cases a liquid form of vitamin or herb works into the system faster...so they say anyway.
