Hello everyone!
I hope you're doing great. I simply wanted to ask you about your experience when using antidepressants. Have they worked to you? Did you gain/lose any weight while using them? Do you regret using them for the first time? Is anything good/ bad about the effects you've noticed about them? Which one did you find better/worse? I need advice since I'm going through a big depression and want help, still don't trust medications a 100%. Thanks in advance for your replies.
hi ev i have been on ADs for years i wish i hadnt started, but they do help the side effects depend on the AD , im on sertraline i find these not to bad, others are not so good.. read the forums on the AD the doctor gives you do you know? and u will find usefull imformation
Hi ev, I have tried many antidepressants of various names and strengths and the only true advice I can offer you is to tell you different medications affect people in different ways. Weight gain/weight loss, none of thee above. However asking a none professional for advice on the best in their experience is really not the way to find the very serious answer to your concerns. It is not a pleasant thought going to your doctor at best of times but in your present situation, that is where you will find your answers. I hope all goes well for you, you have made the first move which is guarenteed step in the right direction.
Hi Ev I agree with David's reply has you need proffessional advice. Eveyone reacts to drugs differently. Your Doctor will have your medical notes and It will also depend on other medications or medical conditions you may be suffering with. This site is supportive but we can only disscuss with others what AD we are taking with others that are taking the same, such has side effects and for
encouragement from each other. Please see your Doctor. Hope this helps. Good luck.
