A member asked:
Can anti-depressants actually lead to more extreme suicidal thoughts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Never say Never: Very rarely in children and adolescents, very, very rarely in young adults between the ages of 18 and 24 and there is no evidence in those older. It is thought this may be related to a side effect of motor restlessness, or to an induction of mania in susceptible individuals.
