Last month I tried taking a vitamin B supplement for my depression. I looked up information about vitamin B and I found that it is supposed to help with stress and vitamin B6 is supposed to help with depression.
I don’t think it worked at all. In fact, I feel more depressed than last month. I think it might be that there was already so much vitamin B in the multivitamin I was taking that it wasn’t possible to see any difference. I also think that I am comparing the results to how much better I felt last month after the St. John’s Wort so it hasn’t been given a fair chance.
I would like to know what results other people get from taking a vitamin B supplement for a month because I am not in a position to be able to test it properly.

St. John’s Wort is supposed to be a natural cure for mild depression. I went and got myself some and I have been taking it for about 2 weeks now.
At first it didn’t seem to do much but I feel much better now after 2 weeks. I have heard that it is no better than a placebo but I am unable to explain how much better I am feeling in any other way. I haven’t suffered any of the side effects that other people have had which is good.
I am still a bit sceptical so I am going to see how I feel when I stop taking it in another 2 weeks.

Although I think I have gotten over the worst of my depression and I no longer want to kill myself, I still feel very depressed at times, especially since I don’t have very much reason to live for.
I think maybe it’s time for me to give up on my fear of medication for depression. I see taking medication as giving up on the fight against depression but actually it is just another method of solving the same result.
The other night I took some strong painkillers for a sore throat but they had the side effect of making me feel incredibly happy. I have honestly never felt so happy and content in my life. Now I don’t want to become dependent on painkillers for the rest of my life so maybe some other kind of antidepressant could give me the same feeling and stop me from hating my life and people and the world so much.
