HERB/TEA/SMOKING for anxiety and depression

Damiana 

I recently came across this plant, and it looks like it some sort of tea you drink to loose anxiety and depression, I am thinking about buying 500 gram of it in leaves and make tea out of it just to see if it gives any good effects on me, I suffer from anxiety and depression so it should be good for me, I am not sure what the side effects are so maybe you guys could write it for me in the comment.
Information

Family: Turneraceae
Genus: Turnera
Species: diffusa, aphrodisiaca
Synonyms: Turnera microphylla
Common Names: Damiana, damiane, oreganillo, the bourrique, Mexican damiana, Mexican holly, damiana de Guerrero
Parts Used: Aerial parts, leaves

Damiana is a small shrub that grows 1-2 m high and bears aromatic, serrate leaves that are 10-25 cm long. Small yellow flowers bloom in early to late summer which are followed by small fruits with a sweet smell and fig-like flavor. The medicinal part of the plant is its leaves, which are harvested during the flowering season. Damiana is found throughout Mexico, Central America, and the West Indies, as well as in parts of South America. Turnera diffusa and T. aphrodisiaca are generally regarded as the same plant in herbal commerce. A closely-related species, T. ulmifolia, is similar in appearance, but it has different traditional medicinal uses. The botanical Latin name of the plant, Turnera aphrodisiaca, describes its ancient use as an aphrodisiac.
