Are Antidepressants Addictive?

From the creator

Antidepressants are not addictive in the way that we think of or define addiction. For more on withdrawal symptoms, watch this video https://youtu.be/KrcUEarpx-s. This video addresses the following questions: If your symptoms return after you stop an antidepressant does that mean you’re addicted? What is the difference between physiological tolerance and psychological dependence? If I start an antidepressant, will I always need it to feel better? If several medications work at first, then stop, does it mean I have a tolerance problem? What is a placebo effect? Want to know more about mental health and self-improvement? On this channel I discuss topics such as bipolar disorder, major depression, anxiety disorders, attention deficit disorder (ADHD), relationships and personal development/self-improvement. I upload weekly.
