Our 16-year-old daughter needs to be on Antidepressants and we need advice?

  • Posted on January 2, 2010 at 8:27 am

Our 16-year-old daughter is severely depressed she is currently seeing a therapist and this next week she finally has an appointment with a psychiatrist. (it takes weeks to get a new patient appt.) They are going to put her on an antidepressant. Before we go I would like to have as much information about these drugs and teens as possible. Which ones seem to work the best, what kind of side effects can we expect, how long before she begins to feel better and any other advice you may have to offer on this. I really appreciate all the information you may have to share with me.
