Oh, about the pros and cons, the pros of AD's would be, as the name suggests, antidepressing properties. Help lifting your mood, start to enjoy things again and get energy and motivation.
The cons are that they do not always work, you may have to test several meds before you find one that helps.
And of course the inevitable side effects which may include sexual dysfunction, fatigue, nausea and many more, this varies with the meds. Don't be discouraged by this. The side effect are often worst when you begin taking your AD and most of them will often diminish or even disappear after a few weeks./tensor
