St. John's Wort

(tea)

BODY WEIGHT:

10 st

Dose: Each day, 2g of St Johns Wort, infused into boiling water to make a tea, for several days.

Before taking it, I was depressed (seasonal affective disorder from the short days in winter; depression from the after effect of the social isolation during the covid19 pandemic; and I might be naturally inclined to become depressed).

The effect started to become noticeable after taking it for about 5 days; stronger effect at about 7 days.

The main effect is that the fuzziness in my head cleared, and I no longer had a wish to block things out. I was then able to complete a number of tasks that I had previously been unable to do --- finishing off an article I was trying to write, finishing off tidying up my house.
