Have we all been here this long?
I have been having some issues with depression; had no idea feelings could feel so bad. I use a combination of gotu kola, bacopa and ashwaganda, which I had been using for adhd but then forgot about it. I tried it when the feelings got uncomfortable and it worked. I used tinctures in a base of spiced port wine. For some reason the port works too, but not as well as with the herbs. Very short acting, though - maybe 6 hours? I don't usually need it for more than a day or so. But for me once the "spell" is broken I don't need it until I get depressed again.
Glad yours are working for you.
