  St John's Wort (hypericum) has recently emerged as one of the most effective treatments for depression. Available over-the-counter and with few side effects it can also relieve SAD (winter depression) and even PMS. This guide emphasizes that while the results can be remarkable, self-medication can be a risky business. It asks such questions as: is it safe to come off anti-depressants?; how long should you stay on St John's Wort?; and can St John's Wort be used to help deal with temporary stress?
