Not me. I had enough to meet head on, I was happy with pain meds, antidepressants (Zoloft 100 mg), and I would have taken sleeping pills if I needed them. The fact is that modern anti-depressants are not "happy pills." They just reduce the depression and anxiety to a point where I can deal with them.

Anyway, they work for me. I haven't noticed any side effects. My wife says I'm less of a jerk on them, so there might be side effects if I quit smile
