Since I am struggling to find real treatment medication where I live, I looked up natural alternatives. Found some who speak good about saffron as having good effects. I just started taking it 2 days ago. Has anybody tried it for an extended period?

I read somewhere that even if you know a placebo is a placebo, it still has some effect. So it can't hurt. Saffron is one of the most expensive substances on the planet though so I feel like it might be good to try some other things.
