Numbing. I was on them years ago. I stopped taking them because they also stopped me feeling good. I have friends who are on them and manage just fine, but I would never go back. It's a long time since I felt truly depressed and I'm thankful that I doubt I ever will again, but I also know that for some people it will never go away so I don't judge anybody for however they cope with life.
