Psychiatrist Questions Antidepressants

Can antidepressants make me really tired?

I've been on the same antidepressants for about 6 months, and I've been really tired lately, especially if I forget to take them. Could me being tired be caused by my antidepressants?

Some anti-depressants have sedation as a potential side effect

Yes, but so can depression! Forgetting you med brings both factors into this. You need to see your physician to delineate this and follow up more frequently until this is controlled. 6 Months is too long to get this under control. Find out why! Good luck.
Yes, it could be a side effect of the antidepressant. I would speak with your Doctor about possibly switching to a different antidepressant that works better for you.
