Some things are better treated with meds, some are better treated with natural
medicine. Ruling out a whole category of
medicine is just limiting yourself, not helping. But I will say this -- natural medicine is best used in a regimen for complex problems, not taking just one thing. But when I was on an antidepressant and a benzo, I still had agoraphobia, and there were plant remedies that helped without side effects. Still do.
