know of any natural alternatives to synthetic drugs?
other than st.john’s wort?
planning to taper off antidepressants and antianxiety medication and looking for natural and healthy changes that are temporary (not like taking paxil for years and years).
Natural alternatives often work slower than synthetic drugs but in most cases you avoid the nasty side effects like coughing, headaches and muscle aches, etc. Sometimes you may need to take more than one of the natural alternatives to get the required improvement.
As regards the particular problems that you are seeking to overcome, you could try a Yahoo search for depression (OR anxiety) + causes + treatment (OR cures OR remedies). Perhaps you could even shorten the long list of items that you are likely to get by adding + natural (or alternative).

marijuana did it for me, smoke a joint fefore going to bed and the next day you wake up feeling so refreshed and relaxed, i attempted suicide years ago and i guess you could say the stuff gave me a new outlook on life, a new perspective, i was also and adhd/ocd case, weed helped me learn how to relax, i was always figity and was scared of simple things like laundry detergent due to their textures……..
just don’t smoke too much….its like alcool you have a beer before bed or wine with your meal you’ll be ok, start drinking a 26 or 40 a day you got problems.

Valerian root is decent. It may make you tired but a lot of the time, it makes me feel really relaxed. Kava is also a nice addition to the valerian root. Other than that and St Johns Wort, I am not too sure.
And(obviously) don’t start smoking weed to help with the situation. It’s not worth the risk.
