I’ve started using St. John’s Wort because I can’t get an appointment with an actual psychiatrist and now when I burp it tastes the way a craft store smells
@SkinScalesSteam citation? I haven’t been able to find any information about this despite targeted efforts. I’ve found plenty of warnings about SSRI-like side effects and need to taper but not benzo-like effects.
I’m going to be dependent on something by definition anyway since “nothing” doesn’t seem like an adequate option for me for now. A prescribed antidepressant would be preferred but I have found three medical groups now that have no appointments available.
@Kistaro @KawaSeadrake Source was chatting with a doc, several years back. If the literature says otherwise, believe the lit.
@Kistaro Not recommended. St. John's wort contains a natural relative of benzodiazepines, and can result in the same sort of dependence issues.
