A member asked:

Is it common for people taking prozac (fluoxetine) or other anti-depressant drugs to make inappropriate comments?

Not really: There isn't anything in my experience that suggests that Prozac (fluoxetine) or other antidepressants do that. Depression can be a part of all types of inappropriate behavior, in part because insight and judgement are affected by depression. Still, it's a personal responsibility, depressed or not, to monitor our behavior and do our best to say and do right things, including getting help for depression.

Did they before?: In depression, it is common not to enjoy activities previously enjoyed. Someone who used to find humor in making inappropriate comments may stop this behavior while depressed. As mood improves, this behavior may return.
