Antidepressants

Do antidepressants help? My main concern is all the side effects they have but if they do help people who have depression get their lives back then I suppose they are beneficial.

I know that I take Prozac and it works great. I also take lithium to help me with suicidel thoughts.

Thanks so much for the advice I’ll talk to my therapist and figure out what would work best for me

I find an antidepressant takes the edge of my low mood. Without it, I dip too low and become unstable. Everybody reacts to antidepressants in different ways and some people do not feel any side effects. I think it is worth a try.
