This question is about me . I have severe anxiety and I know exactly what causes it ......

Thankfully I do not have depression ( sure I get sad and low time after time like most people but I am not depressed ) 

I was excited to try  medications /antidepressants but I have read many horror stories about them so currently taking only light  medications ,my doctor prescribed 

I am concerned if  i take antidepressant and I am not depressed now they may make my situation even worse ...

(Life is hard for me because of anxiety but I am sure if my situation changes it will get better ...) so do people like me still need antidepressants ?
