I was prescribed them years ago, took one pill and never ever again; I felt like dogshit afterwards. For me, exercise, sunlight, better diet and cutting out negative influences worked way better as a cure for depression.
My favourite of the listed potential side-effects was, hilariously, 'suicidal thoughts'. Just what you need in an anti-depressant.
Basically, I don’t think it necessarily changes that one way or the other (maybe it does for some people), but I’m told that, in some cases, the drugs give people the “motivation” they need to just go through with it…
For me, though, those thoughts are always there, regardless of whether I’m drugged up or not, so… Eh.
As you say, it’s about improving life circumstances. That’s the only way to get better.
I still feel like dogshit pretty much every day I take one of the pills, lol.
Supposedly it goes away, but it hasn’t for me, at least, as yet…

Yeah, the suicidal thoughts thing is… Odd.
