studies have shown that large amounts of dark chocolate (at least 60% cocoa) help reduce depression. so go to the health food store, stock up on dark chocolate, and have some fun! :)

St. Johns Wort

St. John's Wort. It's used effectively to treat mild to moderate depression in studies completed in Germany. It's a natural herb, so, any health food store should have it. So, it's worth a try! Good luck with that!

I'm sure they'll say they do. Call them and ask! Or go in and ask. Good luck with that. :)

This was my favorite herbal combination when I was trying to get over a very close friends death: At night: take velarian root and melatonin durring the day : take St John's wart and Flintstones vitamins Flintstones just made sense to me at the time... you body only retains what it can absorb within so much time. And flintstones are pre-digested (chewed) so I thought my body would absorb more... I don't have a clue if that's true. Anyway! watch your diet, too. That will help a lot. Eats tons of fruits and vegetables and make sure you're eating at leat three meals a day! And talk to your doctor! Mine did not want to put me on meds... and my therapist did not put me on meds... and I was so depressed I really thought I would be made to take something and I wasn't strongly opposed to it. That's not always what your doctor will do! Don't be afraid to speak to someone about what's going on. Good luck!

Ummm, last time I looked, chocolate wasn't readily available at health food stores. Nice try, though
