Herbal supplements generally don't work as well as SSRI antidepressants like Lexapro because they are not specifically formulated to help the neurotransmitters in the brain.

However, if you are not on ANY psychotropic drug, you can try St. John's Wort. It supposedly improves mood. However, again, don't take it if you are taking any other psychotropic drug!!!!
