My boyfriend has depression (so do I but I don’t take medication for it so I’m not experienced in antidepressants) he was taking one type of antidepressant for a year and a half and to me it seem to make him worse. He was very distant and I was miserable. 

He finally figured out they weren’t working and switched and the change in him was amazing. He seemed so much happier and full of life and I was a lot happier to as our relationship was better. Recently however he went to the doctors to get signed off work due to being stress (and not being able to get holiday) and for so reason they prescribed him the old medication to take with the new. 

It’s been horrible, he’s been so moody and snappy. So distant again. I can barely get more than a “hmm urm” out of him and he isn’t showing me any affection. It’s making me feel really lonely and my mental health is started to suffer. I just went to the bathroom last night a cried and was getting thoughts of self harm, I was happy those few mboths and this sucks.
