Don't take together: You may not feel very good. You don't need to take both from the point of view of helping with depression, as they work in a very similar way on serotonin.Taking them together could cause unpleasant symptoms of jitteriness and anxiety called "serotonin syndrome".

SSRI's: If you were in the middle of a cross titration from one drug to the other, that would make sense. Otherwise, I don't understand why you would be taking two SSRI's.
