I'm taking anti depressants about 2-3 weeks now and I'm down and again. They were working for the first week and at night when I take one I feel calm and relaxed are they working or should I go docs?

Hey compo, I don't know what you're taking but antidepressants take 4-6 weeks to work. Just taking one at night doesn't have an immediate effect. Didn't your doctor explain how they work? What meds are you taking? If you are thinking about killing yourself you must go to emergency room. Get back to me...

I'd like to help

I wouldn't go through with it, it scares me when it's pips into my head.
