Medication is a term used for medicines that are made from chemical substances. These substances are classified as "Drugs" They no longer classed as a medicine with the true benefits of what a medicine should be and that is to support your body in becoming well. Instead it has the reverse effect, being toxic and harmful following with a list of side effects.

Antidepressants can sometimes cause a wide range of unpleasant side effects, including:

• nausea

•increased appetite and weight gain

•loss of sexual desire and other sexual problems, such as erectile dysfunction and decreased orgasm

• fatigue and drowsiness

• insomnia

• dry mouth

•blurred vision

• constipation
