Ok this is a dumb question, but do antidepressants help with this? I’m in therapy and tried an antidepressant before and one other class of med but it didn’t seem to help. My provider wants to try me on a different antidepressant again, but it’s a bit disheartening to have already tried two different meds.
Interestingly, I had a 23andme done for funsies. And there is a section I didn’t know about where it talks about how the action of some drugs can be affected by my genetics. It actually said that I would have reduced efficacy for the SSRI they had me on first. I brought this info to my provider which is why she wants me to try a different SSRI even after several failed meds.
