Can you tell me which would be better as depression treatment – saint john’s wort or Zoloft? I have realized that my depression is slowly getting out of hand and I have to do something about it. And unfortunately, that means I have to take some medications for it. I just hope that I can deal with it with herbal meds, not chemical products…

Well, St. John’s Wort is an example for herbal meds, while Zoloft is that heavy drug, which you are afraid of, it seems. Anyway, I would recommend you to try with St. John’s Wort for a start, perhaps it will help (it can deal with some moderate depression cases). And if not, you can always turn to those unwanted medications. But, I assume you will consult your doctor before that.
