Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, these drugs can cause psychiatric illness like depression, mood swings etc. So your symptoms are more suggestive of depression.
In my opinion, you should definitely consult psychiatrist first.
So consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution.
You will need anti depressant drugs.
Counselling along with antidepressants will definitely help you more.
Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
