Default Does anyone know what this plant/weed is?

Hello everyone, I have three of these plants/weeds in my garden and am
trying to find out exactly what it is. It has long red stems with
leaves on opposite sides of the stem and has dark brown/black single
berries. It seems to grow outwards rather than up. I have included a
photo.

I have spent hours going through images on the internet but cant find
it. Thank you so much for your help!

Looks like one of the Hypericums (St John's Wort) to me. If you haven't
yet seen them, it will have yelllow flowers.
