St John's Wort - does it help depression - personal experiences please.?

Question: I have purchased some St John's Wort for my 17 year old daughter as she has signs of depression. The doctor won't prescribe her anti-depressants (which I agree with at the moment) but I was recommended St John's Wort. Does it work? Does anyone have any personal experience of it? How long does it take to 'kick in'?

Answers:
I have taken it, it is OK.. However, your daughter does not need to take any kinds of meds. She is to young. My daughter had the same thing, I found someone she could talk to. It worked, and no medicine. Please think a long, long, long time, before you give her drugs of ANY kind. They, our children, have to say "NO" at school to all kinds of stuff. Anyway...try to find her someone she trust, and if that doesn't work, well nothing lost, then you can try St.John's Wort, which takes at bout a month.
Best Wishes
