Do anti-depressants actually heal depression or is it just a short term thing and once you stop taking it you will be depressed again? also when you take the med does it really work that well? And any side effects?

    They are short term only and usually after a few months have to be changed cause they quit working. It takes about 6 weeks for them to work initially. Side effects vary..most have weight gain and all of them have sexual disfunction as a side effect. They change my whole personality..not just not make me depress..actually change my personality

    • Aw, i'm exactly the same Scrappy :) And they do change your whole personality. It's strange. The ones I took weren't short term. I was meant to take them for a few years.
