Topic Title: perika
| "perika" , Mon 30 Jan 16:34
hi my name is stephanie, i have also been diagnosed with depression and the docs. tried to put me on meds. like paxil aso. i hated the feeling it gave me and so i just quit and a friend of mine told me to try it with herbs instead of the full blown drugs. since i had no idea what she was talking about, i told her to go and get it for me and since i am from germany, she came back with johanniskraut from schwabe which did wonders for me. i have moved to the united states now and i have been here for one year, i have tried all kinds of brands, but none of them were as good as the german stuff. i have now ordered kira for the first time and i have only heard good things about it and i know that it is a german brand also, so i will put some hope into this. i have now been off anything since dec. 29th, cuz i have had surgery in jan. and my doc told me that i should take anything 2 weeks before my surgery. i felt ok at first, but now my symptoms are coming back and i really don't like it at all and since i don't have anything at the house anymore, i decided to give it one more try with the kira. this is really a great site and i was surprised to see that i am not the only one with this problem. i have been very ashamed of it and i tried to hide it as much as i could, but i couldn't fool my family and friends for long. but i must say that all of them are very understanding and helpful and i am thankful for that. well i wanna thank kelly for this wonderful site and i wanna wish everybody the best of luck !!! steph

Hiya steph,
I just wondered how you are getting on with the kira and is it any better than the other brands. I have only used a health food brand and it gave me really bad stomach pains so i stopped and used 5htp but that isn't working anymore and my symptoms are back and getting worse. I just wondered how you were getting on with kira and if it is working for you.

hi pixy, well yeah i am doing fine on the kira, haven't had any problems and my mood has changed for the better. i like the kira better than the perika to be honest. when i was taking perika, my face broke out so badly and my hubby told me that it might be from taking perika, i didn't believe it at first, but now since i have switched brands and all, my skin is clearing up. i just don't like the fact that u have to take 3 a day, when i was taking the german brand, i only had to take either one or two. but i am up for it as long as it works. i have tried health food products too adn they didn't do anything for me, but perika ain't bad, i just think that kira works better for me. u might wanna give it a try. i wish u good luck !! best wishes, stph

Hiya stephanie,
I have got some kiri now just my second day so i can't say either way yet but I haven't had any stomach or back pain like last time. However, its really expensive I didn't realise just how expensive it was if it helps I will get it off the net as it seems a better deal.
I have my fingers crossed, thanks for your reply and I hope your feeling better.

hi pixy, well yeah give it a lil more time to kick in like it is supposed to. i am feeling great now and i don't feel that it is too expensive, i order it online. i have tried many other things which were more expensive, but like u said, if it helps then u should continue cuz nothing is more important than ur health and the way u feel. so give it a try and see if it works for u, i am glad that i gave it a shot and life can go on now. stay in touch and let me know the outcome !!! best wishes, steph
