Hi all. I suffer quite badly from depression but mostly I have awful anxiety. My boyfriend also has mental health problems, and he just started taking Sertraline. With my previous experiences of taking it I am very aware of the emotional numbing and falling out of love as a side effect. I’m so proud of him for getting help but so so worried about how this will affect our relationship and his feelings for me.

Every time I try and Google antidepressants affecting relationships I get horror stories. Is there anyway it could positively affect us? Or is it really as bad for love as I think it is ? What are your experiences? :(
