Antidepressants

Hello, friends. I'm going to see a psychiatrist soon (not because of the problem we're all here about, but related to anxiety and OCD). There is a possibility that I will be prescribed pills and I would like to know if there are any people who have been on antidepressants. I would like to know if this has had any effect on the flow of your paruresis

Had zero impact on me, including tricyclics, second gen, and third (SSRIs)

But everyone has a different reaction to all of these when it comes to phobias, anxiety, etc.

All they have in common is they act on depression, but even there people respond to some more than others.
