herbs and health Mood
Monday, September 7, 2009

finally found a good herbal ssri that helps me with minimal side effects for depression! it works well for my gf too. now we are both able to deal with life's bumps a bit better and improve communication. hooray!

 

also found herbs for anxiety & insomnia (bacopa) and to help with immune system (rooibos, african potato,etc) that seem to be working well so far.

 

glad to be feeling better consistently, although i still have to take it easy and pace myself. dealing with chronic pain is still an issue; hoping that going back to physical therapy helps.
