Deprim (St John's wort) Reviews

Helen, 29 years, I have almost two years on vacation for child care. Not communicate with friends, I do not have enough critical experiences! It seems that all what I do - it's cooking and feeding, the days pass quickly and equally. I already depressive character, and is the monotony of everyday life has led me to the strongest apathy. In addition, I have always suffered from lack of appetite: to eat once a day and eat three spoonfuls of soup for me was fine standards. About a week after I started taking "Deprim", I noticed that I wake up in the morning in a good mood, always got up early as on the wrong foot. There is a sense of hopelessness, or something, do not think that life goes by, I finally pulled myself together, set a specific goal and set about their performance! Improved appetite! Coming to the supermarket, I want to buy this and that, I know what I want for lunch, but before that was absolutely indifferent to food, it does not bring me pleasure. I eat several times a day.

This drug Deprim is more effective than all other sedatives with which I am familiar (Novopassit, Persen, Glycine). Rather like an elephant (mmm) !. In fact, it improves mood and good spirits - the key to a good day!

Anna 32 years: In general, these miracle pills Deprim (St.John’s wort) , at the moment - just my salvation, so I recommend them to anyone who needs it, but beware, it's still a medicine, so carefully read the information and consult a physician if necessary!
