My grown daughter WILL NOT take medication and is looking into alternatives to help her. Can anybody suggest anything that could? THanks so much.

Several years ago a psychologist recommended St. John's Wort to my easy child, it did seem to help. We got it at a health food store. I haven't heard much about it lately, so you might want to do some research before using it now.

I just looked it up. $70.00 a month...cheaper than most prescriptions. Sara, do you have any first hand knowledge of this product? If so, I'd be interested in hearing myself. This looks like something I may want to try.

A friend took St. John's Wort for a short time, along with B50, B12 and Omega 3 and got excellent results. He stopped the St. John's Wort after the stress got better and is still doing well. I have heard the St. John's Wort tablets in the blister packs are better...
In terms of sleep, I always take my cal/mag tablet and sometimes a tiny bit of melatonin. Recently, I saw where a person can get Melatonin in very small increments...less than 1 mg. tablets.

I don't have an first hand knowledge of Truehope but I've heard from parents who have had some success. It's a roll of the dice, like anything else. At least there are no issues with addiction or discontinuation. If I were starting from the beginning and I knew then what I know now, considering the problems we had with prescibed medications and the improvement we've seen with a better diet, I think I'd give it a try.

Well, thanks, Sara. I'm going to tell my daughter about TrueHope and let her decide for herself. She is very into natural remedies and $70 month is cheaper than I thought. She could swing it.
