    My doc put me on anti-depressants
    I was wondering if this sounds normal to anyone. He put me on a 10 low dose of anti-depressants to get ride of my headaches. I've been on them for almost 2 weeks now and yes they have helped. Though my boyfriend thinks that I've gone crazy now. Am I going to have to stay on these forever so my headaches won't come back? I have been not myself lately. Just more depressed about our relationship. Its like I'm not in love with him anymore and everything he does annoys me. It wosent like this before. Is the medication causing this or is it me?

    It's the medication.

    Talk to your doctor about the effects, I will be honest, if ou were depressed, if and when you start on medication, you start looking and seeing things differently, If for example you are in a bad relationship, you may realise it once you are on the medication, it can help you see things more clearly if it is correct dosage for correct reasons. But I would discuss my fellings with the doctor

    I'm curious what the med is. Some medications have these symptoms, yet others do not.
