First question is:: Are you taking the antidepressant as directed? Some people take more than prescribed - thinking it will help them feel better. In those cases, taking too much of the medication can actually make you sick.Don't know which type of antidepressant you are taking or what condition is being treated. Do you have unipolar or bipolar depression? I would encourage you to talk with your psychiatrist/dr.
