Hi,
I am sick of meds - they don't seem to work well and I get a lot of side effect - on too many, now lithium was added to the mix (on celexa and trazadone).

I was diagnosed with depression, but my moods fluctuate from horrible to quite good (but not really hypomania).

I was wondering - I tried St. John's wort for about 3 days and I think I went hypomanic after 1 day - anyone had this experience? was it just that there was a contaminant or something - it was too early to actually be working (takes weeks to have an effect).

I am tempted to stop all meds and try St. John's wort again, to see if I could try something more natural.
What do you think? Any similar experiences?
