Before you insufflate (snort) any pill, you should be aware that many pills contain insoluble fillers and binders, which will cause a great deal of nasal/sinus irritation, possibly lasting for days.
Antidepressants do not have any recreational effects, and insufflating them won't change that. They are used to increase levels of serotonin and dopamine in the brain, and generally take two weeks of regular dosage to start having an effect.
The only recreational use of antidepressants, specifically MAOIs, is when they are taken orally with DMT to potentiate its effects.
This advice is not meant to replace that of a qualified physician. MAOI drugs can have fatal interactions.

Depends what kind it is. What its for exactly. What the dosage is etc etc. It could be harmful and probably a dumb idea. Drug addicts snort pain pills to get high faster and for a more intense high. There are a variety of reasons snorting anything is not a good idea.

Can it do anything? Give you some antidepressants in your bloodstream and make you cough. Make you more prone to snort other things that may kill you.

I don't think that will do anything to you, but excessive use could damage your nose.
