Others with more experience in this area will likely provide you with better direction and advice. In the meantime, however, I have heard that it is to your advantage to staggering the starts simply so you can be better aware of your reaction to the supplement, its benefits and any side effects. If you start two or three at the same time, it will be hard to tell from which you are receiving benefit or from which you are experiencing any adverse effects.
Good luck to you.

Or is it better to stagger the starts? Of course, I'd love to get the most immediate help/relief I can and I've read from Dr. Amens website that people with temporal lobe issues (me) should stabilze the temporal lobes first before taking St Johns Wort (and possibly all Seratonin/Cingulate Gyrus calming supplements) so maybe I've just answered my own question!
