A member asked:
What can i do if i'm scared of taking anti depressants and becoming dependent on them?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to prescriber: Common antidepressant do not have physical dependence issues when taken and withdrawn according to medical plan. You are on them only as long as believed to be necessary or helpful. If concerned about length ot treatment (or potential) you need to ask your prescriber specifically about that.
