Hello

It would have been great if you would have narrated the symptoms of your husband

Assuming that he is suffering from depression (as you have mentioned), the drugs given by the doctor are not antidepressants. These drugs are antipsychotics.

It would better if you persuade him to go to doctor (preferably psychiatrist) atleast once.

Hope this helps.
