Human: My doctor wants me to take an antidepressant, should I? Assistant: 
It’s a good idea to talk to your doctor about the pros and cons of taking an antidepressant. Antidepressants are often prescribed for people who have depression or anxiety, but they can also be used to treat other conditions such as chronic pain, migraines, and substance abuse. Taking an antidepressant may help reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety, but it is important to understand the potential side effects before deciding if this is the right choice for you.
