Yes, different antidepressants can have different effects that can affect your mood and emotions in several ways. These can very in severity and can cause emotional numbness, extreme elation, even suicidal thoughts or feelings. It would be best to consult a qualified doctor to regulate your dosage or change medications. if you start to feel suicidal or excess anxiety please consult a Doctor immediately.

Anti-depressants can have many side-effects. It is best to research the specific medication you are taking to determine whether it may or may not be contributing to the feelings of emotional numbness.

Yes, it can, but each antidepressant is different, each person is different, and each drug affects each person differently. Please tell your prescribing doctor about this. In the meantime, triple check that you are taking the correct doseage in the prescribed way. Bottom line, anti-depressants can be a Godsend, but they aren't something to be treated lightly or messed around with. Any and all concerns/questions should be directed to your doctor as soon as possible.

No emotional numbness is depression and you may need a higher dose or another type of antidepressent
