I would like to hear from anyone who has tried Clarocet, which is a natural SSRI. No prescription needed.

> linnieActually its nothing else than St. Johns Wort (Hypericum) mixed with other herbs. goto http://www.clarocet.com/ to see the full list of ingredients. But sounds quite interesting. Maybe this really works well for some people

I wouldn't advise taking this stuff -- it contains kava, which can cause serious liver problems taken long-term. It's much better taken on an as-needed basis, which I occasionally do (mostly as an alcohol substitute).
If you ask me, you'd be better off taking a high-quality standardized St. John's wort product along with standardized tinctures of valerian, hops, scullcap, passionflower, etc.

Buying it from a reputable source should help ensure it is of good quality.
I would visit the alternative section of this site to ask others who have used this herb.
