Hi

I've been taking Johannis herbs since December last year. So it's been about two months. 

I started because I felt more anxious as winter had started. I feel it helps me although I also notice how it makes me more sensitive to light. 

I've been wondering, does anybody here have experience with long-term treatment of anxiety/depression with Johannis herbs?

 I've read online you shouldn't use it for longer than 12 weeks. However, when I told my doctor I wanted to take it till spring she supported my idea. Appearently (according to this article: [https://www.test.de/medikamente/wirkstoff/pflanzliches-mittel-johanniskraut-w473/](https://www.test.de/medikamente/wirkstoff/pflanzliches-mittel-johanniskraut-w473/)) there are no studies of longterm treatments with Johannis herbs, so maybe that's why they are recommending not to use it longer?
