hi, after refusing to take antidepressants for months on the grounds i did not think i was depressed, my pd insisted i needed to take them, so i gave in and took one one evening, ok it made me sleep, but i slept till 3pm the next day! and when i did wake up i felt like i was being poisoned!!! i could hardly lift my head, cried for no particular reason,head was really not right, fuzzy, even more difficult to co-ordinate to do anything, even just to get basic dressed! felt ready to end everything(usually i see the funny side of things!)......so i forced myself to the chemist who had dispensed them, only to be sent straight to my GP where i was told i had not to take anymore because i was not depressed!!!!

some people can have adverse effects from medication, antidepressents make me depressed and i am also allergic to some allergy tablets!!!

if i was you i would discuss it with the person who prescribed your meds, maybe they can say why it happens or even maybe advise on a different med to take over the role of the one causing you problems. it could be that one works ok but two are too strong, maybe try taking one and a half when you are particularly struggling, see if that is enough to set you straight without the side effects.

good luck meds are a minefield which need careful handeling
