I react strongly to medicines and before that was realised they tried me with a whole range of anti-depressants and made me very ill and they had no impact on the depression. It came to a head when I ended up rushed to hospital with my heart struggling because of the anti-depressants. I am considering trying St. Johns Wort but am concerned that it is not intended for severe depression really.
