Hello, friends! I hope you're having a really good week. Enjoyed making this episode for you. The questions here have somewhat of a theme. Here are the questions I take:

I don't have access to psychiatry in my area. Can I use St. John's wort to treat my depression?
I live in a place where mental health is taboo. How can I improve my anxiety around sleeping without treatment?
