Depends: The answer depends on which antidepressants you overdose on -- some can be fatal, others less likely so. Still, it's not a good idea to overdose on any medication. If considering this, please contact your physician immediately. If you've already done it, please call 911 and get to an emergency room.

Overdose: Type of antidepressant with its own side-effects, amount consumed, other medications consumed with it, and your general health at time of od, are all factors.
