Can I get addicted to antidepressants?

No, antidepressants are not addictive. Although there are psychopharmaceuticals, the so-called benzodiazepines (sleeping pills and tranquillisers), which have a potential for dependence if taken regularly over a longer period of time, antidepressants do not belong to this group. Especially the newer antidepressants are usually well tolerated and have few side effects.
