Chronic Depression
Depression is characterized by feelings of sadness, hopelessness, fatigue, disinterest, anxiety, irritability, and sometimes insomnia (i.e. inability to sleep) or
hypersomnia (i.e. sleeping too much). Chronic depression is when feelings of depression persist for many months or years or the depression recurs multiple times
throughout a person's life.
Individuals with chronic depression can benefit from counseling with a licensed psychologist or psychiatrist. One form of therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy,
focuses on changing problematic behaviors and modifying negative reactions to everyday events.
Chronic depression can also be treated with drugs such as Prozac® and
Paxil®. Although these drugs
work well for many people, they can also cause problematic side effects including weight gain, sexual dysfunction, and fatigue. For this reason,
an increasing number of people are turning to natural treatments for chronic depression.
The most effective natural remedy for chronic depression is high-quality St. John's Wort extract (SJW).
Numerous clinical trials prove St. John's Wort extract effectively relieves chronic depression and anxiety,
but only if it contains a high concentration (3-5%) of Hyperforin, the active constituent.
Research shows that SJW with little or no hyperforin, like most brands sold in the United States, simply doesn't work for chronic depression.
Therefore, it's critical to take SJW that contains at least 3-5% hyperforin.
Natural supplements that combine hyperforin-rich St. John's Wort extract with mood-related nutrients like B vitamins may be most effective.
