People react quite differently to these mind-altering drugs -- and there are a lot of them, with different effects on different people.
They "worked" for someone I know when they were in a very dark place, but the price was a permanent dulling of their emotions, even after they stopped taking them.
Someone else I know underwent extreme personality changes on a different antidepressant, becoming more aggressive and basically an asshole, and I had to beg them to stop taking it.
Your mileage may vary. They are very serious things.
