When it comes to Antidepressants, that's something that is a better question for your doctor or psych to answer.

Why? Because there is not a single antidepressant out there that works for everyone.

.

I can tell you that I am on Lexapro, and it helps me, but that's just my experience.

I will say that if you choose meds, they might come with side effects. Some go away, but from my experience Lexapro is the one that helps me the most with the least amount of side effects.

Kinda repeating myself here, but any medication should be discussed by your psych or doctor.

& Either way, I wish you nothing but the best.

Still talk with your medical professional. For me though, Lexapro worked for a while and I had to go through a dosage change, but after being on it for a while it seemed that it was not working anymore.

All people react differently toward antidepressants and sometimes the medication only works for a certain period for your body, but then quits working. Some people have difficulty with symptoms such as too tired, not sleeping well, headaches and others. Some people, likemy dad, when he was alive, stayed on zoloft for many years. It worked so well, that one day my dad didn't take his Zoloft and his anxiety went up and he was irritable and angry that whole day
