Why the more i take of my antidepressant, the more depressed i feel?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Did you just start: The medication recently? I would want to know if you are experiencing temporary side effects or if the medication is having a paradoxic effect. Please let your physician (psychiatrist) know so that this can be explored. There isn't a good answer to your question without more detailed assessment. Take care.
