I was wondering if anyone had some good info on herbs for anxiety. I was just to the doctor's who told me she would suggest St John's Wart or Valerium(sp). I have a family history of anxiety and depression. My father is on zoloft as well as my sister. I really really don't want to be medicated and my doctor doesn't want me to be either. She said as long as I can sleep through the night I am ok for now.I have no problems sleeping. So she recommend those two herbs. After my pregnancies I took prozac for six weeks to stabalize my hormones and then that was it. I was fine. Now I don't have panic attacks or depression. I just have nervousness. If you get what I mean. Don't worry I have been to the doctor and she knows about my history and we both feel a natural remedy is a good course of action for me. I really would appreciate any help or any info that could help me choose from those herbs correctly. Forgot to say that I eat very well and exercise 5-6 days a week. I think it's genetics. Karen
