Hi guys,
My dad is (what I think) depressed. He has always been against taking any type of antidepressants. He always chastised me for taking them. Rosella (thelma313) told me her dad was the same way about them, but started to take them after she told him that ALS effects the brain since it is a disease of the brain and he took them after that.. It helped. Have any of you started antidepressants AFTER your diagnosis? If so, did it help? Which ones are you taking?
Hugs in advance for your answers!
