A member asked:
Since starting my antidepressant a year ago, i haven't had loose, or watery stools, or diarrhea--ever. is this a problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to tell: if diarrhea & frequent stools were the result of stress and anxiety, the change may be a result of an antidepressant working. But ask a provider who knows you well, and compare how you're doing now with how it was when you startted the antidepressant.
