Help answer this question below.
Iv been on a.depresss for 3 yrs so i dont remember bk then.. i think i have the same outlook as before
I dont think theres much of a problem telling small white lies. I think anti-depressants help you stop worrying about things that arent so important. If the lies are major and bad then maybe re-think taking anti-depressants. Although you are fully aware that you are lying so you know even though you are taking the anti-depressants that you can stop lying? Hmmm.
I have been bipolar for over 10 years. I have experienced almost every feeling under the sun, from almost all anti depressant drugs on the market. I have felt things that i have never felt before, like some times i have felt suicidal, and have this rage that i would have never felt before, and i told myself "NO thats not true!!! i dont believe that" and i have dealt with problems like that for a LONG time. So yes in my experience in the last 10 years with medication, and natural supplements you can experience changes in your mind that you yourself know you would never do, and you wont do them (at least i hope you won't) the trick is to keep telling yourself what you feel in your heart. Medications can alter your mind no matter what they are for. Like i said at one point i was suicidal, but i never was before then, nor am i now. It was just a side effect of the drug.
If you are feeling something you know in your heart isnt true about yourself, or you are doing things that you havent done before taking a medication. PLEASE go to your doctor tell them immediately... I have almost died because of a medication before...I am not saying you are going to commit suicide, i do not know how deeply troublesome your problem is, but this is one thing i know alot about.
If you have any Psychotic urges at all anti depressant can enhance them and yes any mind altering drug can have strange effects on how a person acts. It could make you not care if you lie any more, the negative feedback from your conscious would not depress you into not doing it...
There have been some indications that antidepressants can cause unexpected changes in personality or behaviour. Here's an article:

I am not a doctor so I really cant say. But my guess is I doubt if a drug could affect a person that way.
No. I don't think that Anti_depressnts can "cause or allow" anyone to be able to lie.
In a word? No.

You're reading (Not sure how to word this) Can Anti-Depressants affect your conscience? Can they affect your moral outlook? e.g. You have no problem telling small lies now, since taking the Anti-Depressants, but before you wouldn't lie at all.
