Posted on 3 days ago

Question: I was taking a bunch of antidepressants for PTSD for a month. Apparently during that time I was also very aggressive at night towards my significant other, and I have no memory of it. I’m off the drugs now and I feel perfectly fine. Was this caused by the drugs I was on?

Brief Answer:
Not related to drugs usage.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Being aggressive at night is not related to antidepressants usage and is not a side effect of them.
While using antidepressants it is supposed that you should be less aggressive.
I think that this situation of being aggressive and having no memory on it can be related to the main issue ,the PTSD
