The herbal compound berberine appears to be very promising in the treatment of depression.
It posesses MAO and reuptake inhibiting like activity as well as sigma agonism and effects on cholinsterase. Not to mention the side benefit of anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, cardioprotective effects.

Why don't the drug companies just stop messing around and synthesize some of this stuff for sale at the pharmacy? We've had the cures for so long now.

Sorry to interrupt, but I'd like to redirect this thread to Psycho-Babble Alternative. Here's a link:

That'll be considered a new thread, so if you'd like to be notified by email of follow-ups to it, you'll need to request that there.
Please do feel free to continue this discussion there, and in general to explore the other boards here. Thanks,
Bob
