Unfortunately, depression is becoming a symbol of our era of high technology and an accelerated rhythm of life. Paradoxically, the better the conditions and standard of living, the more people are prone to depression. It is proved that in underdeveloped countries with a low standard of living, the population knows about this condition only by hearsay. People are busy with survival, and their hands simply do not reach depression.
Apparently, we do not have such a bad life, since a depressed state covers an increasing number of people. It is regrettable that the ailment sneaks up imperceptibly, so when a person catches up and realizes that he is sick, he is unlikely to be helped by herbal antidepressants - they will have to take medications.
Chemical antidepressants are characterized by a high concentration of the active substance, which is good on the one hand, since the symptoms of the disease disappear faster, and on the other hand, not so much, since negative side effects are manifested. Quite often, at the initial stage of taking antidepressants, a apparent deterioration in well-being occurs. That is why such drugs are dispensed strictly according to a doctor’s prescription after a comprehensive examination.
It’s better not to allow this. If you had to survive stress, or maybe not one, at work or at home, you should immediately pay attention to antidepressants of plant origin. All these stresses will certainly affect the time, which will already be lost. But you can avoid such negative consequences from taking medication antidepressants, such as nausea, vomiting, overexcitation and others.
The fact is that natural antidepressants have practically no contraindications. They act very gently without disturbing the overall functioning of the body’s internal systems. In them, the concentration of active substances is much lower. Do not be afraid of addiction with prolonged use (taking such drugs usually requires a long course) - plant antidepressants do not cause it.
A number of herbs have antidepressant effects, such as hawthorn, rosemary, chicory. The action of each herb is special, so more often it is not a separate plant that is used, but a collection that most effectively affects the nervous system with minimal side effects is used.
One of these fees includes elecampane, hawthorn and rosemary in equal proportions. For ingestion, 400 g of boiling water is poured into one tablespoon of a mixture of herbs. In this case, it is worth listening to the reaction of the body, because rosemary refers to potent drugs.
One of the best that have the most pronounced antidepressant effect on the central nervous system is St. John's wort. As a rule, most of the fees announced as antidepressants of plant origin include St. John's wort. Even taking hypericum alone helps relieve symptoms of fatigue, reduces anxiety, improves sleep.
But you need to understand that if time was lost, then plant-based antidepressants alone can be ineffective in controlling the disease. In this case, you should definitely consult a doctor. Even if it is possible to buy a medicine without a prescription, this is not worth it - almost all antidepressants have a lot of side effects. And to minimize the risk of negative effects on the body, you need to consult a specialist who, when prescribing a particular drug, will necessarily take into account the condition of a particular patient.
Do not forget about the main principle of antidepressant treatment. This is the regularity of admission. In no case should you skip taking the drug or even more so interrupt treatment yourself. The duration of the course can only be determined by a doctor. Untreated depression can manifest itself as a significant deterioration in health in the future.
