Why do my antidepressants cause muscle twitching? this is so aggravating, been on few different kinds-all do this- is this dangerous?

Not normal: anti depressants should not be causing muscle twitching. Something else is going on. See a neurologist or get a 2nd opinion. RULE OUT Lyme Disease. Lyme has co infections causing issue with depression.
