SJW is a powerful plant. It can do anything a pharmaceutical antidepressant can do. By that I mean it can work like a miracle for some people, it can work sort of ok for some people, it can work not at all for some people, and it can make some people even more depressed than they were.
Though some people feel benefits in one to two weeks, it really does take minimum six weeks, but 8 to 12 weeks for a true test.
If it works for you and you stay well for a while but then it feels like it is pooping out...this is gonna sound weird...do not increase the dose...instead, decrease it. Really. That is how many people who experience sjw poopout get it to work again.
There is a good forum devoted just to sjw users. Tons of good information, experience, and advice there.
