Do antidepressants reverse social withdrawal forcing people into uncomfortable situations?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No med can force: You into an uncomfortable situation. Antidepressant medications do not change who you are, they only adjust neurotransmitter levels back towards a normal balance.
