      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Triple blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Samples will be randomly assigned to 8 blocks using Random Allocation Software. Blocking and allocation sequences for concealment will be done by the non-involved researcher (Allocation Concealment). The sample allocation ratio will be Allocation 1:1 and will be divided into 4 groups of Lavandula Angustifolia and Melissa officinalis, Melissa Officinalis and Echium amoenum, Lavandula Angustifolia and Echium amoenum, and finally sertraline. In the next step, each client will receive white envelopes that are prepared in equal sizes and on which group .. drugs (for the first 10 days of study) and group ... drugs (for the next 46 days) are written. Also, each envelope will be numbered from 1 to 120 (in the order to allocation sequence). Groups ... and ... will have different contents only in the group of patients who will receive sertraline so that group .. contains 12.5 mg sertraline and group ... contains 50 mg of sertraline. Only the person in charge of packing drugs will know the numbers of the relevant pockets and none of the researchers or patients will know the type of medicine that each person receives. The first person will be given pocket number 1 and then it will continue until completion.  Lavandula Angustifolia and Melissa officinalis, Melissa Officinalis and Echium amoenum, Lavandula Angustifolia and Echium amoenum, and sertraline capsules will be similar in shape, size, color and, smell, Blinding description: Based on blocks and allocation sequences each client will be given white pockets that are prepared in equal sizes and on which the numbers 1 to120 are written (in order of allocation sequence). The pockets will contain white boxes containing Lavandula Angustifolia and Melissa officinalis, Melissa Officinalis and Echium amoenum, Lavandula Angustifolia and Echium amoenum, and sertraline capsules. Only the person in charge of packing Lavandula Angustifolia and Melissa officinalis, Melissa Officinalis and Echium amoenum, Lavandula Angustifolia and Echium amoenum, and sertraline capsules will know the numbers of the relevant pockets and none of the researchers, patients, or outcome evaluators will know the type of medicine that each person receives. The first person will be given pocket number 1 and then it will continue until completion. All capsules will be similar in shape, size, color, and smell.</study_design>
