Mild depression mixed with anxiety: better St. John’s wort, Rhodiola or Griffonia?

Hi, I have a depressive temperament due to a lack of self-esteem but also from genetic factors (since my father is also very similar). I always feel quite tired and low in mood with anxiety spikes under stress. Between Iperico, Rodiola and Griffonia, which one do you recommend? Many thanks in advance.

Good evening dear, given the familiarity, more than herbs I would recommend that sport, discipline and motivation are the most suitable solutions for you. NB: St. John’s wort on sensitive people is not recommended. get advice from a professional in your area. Kind regards Cinzia Zedda naturopath, reflexology, iridology and mindfulness

Dear, self-esteem is the evaluation that the person gives of himself. To value ourselves means not to question our importance and consequently to be able to take responsibility towards others. Respect for ourselves, for our needs, our emotions and potential, helps us not only to have a constructive relationship with life, but also and above all with others. Those with low self-esteem not only experience a lack of confidence in themselves and in the world, but above all have difficulty in listening to themselves in order to identify realistic and consistent goals with their aspirations. All this can lead to being more vulnerable to anxiety states , especially in those periods when stress is most felt.. I therefore agree with what my colleague recommended, but since improving self-esteem is a fundamental premise for the psycho-social well-being of the person, I recommend that you also contact a professional who can help you recognize the dissatisfaction and frustration that they are the basis of low self-esteem, to prevent it from escalating into impulsive manifestations of anger . Certain that you will be able to develop clear, assertive and functional relationships to achieve his goals, I offer you my best regards. Dr.ssa Manuela Gravante, Psychosomatic Health and Wellness

I thank you both. Anyway, excluding the hypericum, between rodiola and griffonia which one would you recommend?

Look, the response to natural remedies is subjective and depends on many factors. I would not be professional or serious giving you advice without any evaluation of the person. I give you my example just to give you an idea; I do not react to the administration of the Rodiola and not even to the Griffoniabut Whitania has immediate and decisive affection for me (note that the latter does not get along with antidepressants, sleeping pills and psychotropic drugs). Other people, on the other hand, find great benefit with Rodiola and so on. You agree to be seen by a colleague, he will then see that he will be happy with the choice. Climbing alone when certain problems arise may sometimes not be the right way to go. Take note of the situation and if you really want to get out of it, talk to someone who will give you what you really need. Best regards Cinzia Zedda – naturopath
