What happens if you take an antidepressant and your not depressed?

Answer 1

Good Lord, why would you want to?!

I am assuming that this pill is not one that you have a legitimate prescription for, because if you have clinical depression, you understand that you need to take the pills to prevent the depression from coming back as often and as bad.

If you - for some odd reason - just decided to take a pill to see what would happen - tell me, do you also pick up dog crap off the street and eat it just to see what would happen?

You are going to have to figure out what you have put into your body and look it up yourself to see what the side effects are.

Of course the main reason you never take medication without a prescription is because

you have no idea how your body will react

When a person goes to the doctor for medicine, the doctor takes a medical history so that he or she can decide which medicine is save to give that person. Just sticking something in your mouth is a great way to find that you are deathly allergic to it, or are one of the people that it causes to go into convulsions.

Answer 2

Well if you don't have depression, you shouldn't be taking it. You'll need to talk to your doctor about that and see what they think about it. In general, taking medication when not needed can cause health issues either instantly, or long term issues if continued. You should NOT TAKE ANY medicine unless you need it.

Answer 3

If you take the drug then you may feel drowsy and sleep for a longer time then usual.

Answer 4

There are no beneficial effects for sure. There could be sideeffects though.
