I refuse to tolerate any side effects now. I started initially tolerating them, but when they became bad & the meds weren't making me feel any better why take something that is causing a problem without any benefit?

I never had even a headache before taking antidepressants....I started getting migraines & the more different AD's I tried, the worse the migraines got....to the point they wouldn't go away even after stopping the AD's. Now that they are under control, The pdoc for the medical hospital I was in this year got together with my pdoc & had me try an AD again at the beginning of this year & could feel the migrains coming back....NO WAY. I don't know if it is exactly decreasing life enjoyment, but it decreases my ability to just plain function....with or without enjoyment.
