  • Do antidepressants make you emotionless?

    Antidepressants are prescribed for depression, anxiety and other conditions (e.g. PMDD, Pain Management, etc.).

In the case of Anxiety the person should have feelings of relief and freedom from the crippling anxiety. Therefore, any unwanted symptoms (e.g. more anxious, more subdued, etc.) would likely mean that the treatment does not agree with the patient; specific to that particular medication, rather than the class of such medications.
