ANTIDEPRESSANT?

Good afternoon. I am a 44 year old male who was addicted to hydrocodone for aprox. two years. I was taking aprox. 140mg aday the last few months. Today is my 22nd day of abstinence. I am feeling somewhat depressed and pretty lethargic. No ambition. Would  taking an antidepressant be a good idea? Thank you.

Some depression is going to effect of your getting off hydrocodone.Try first mild exercise like brisk walking for at least 30 Mins a day. This will help raise your seritonin levels.Try this before you try antidepressants.Also eat balanced meals and get regular rest.If you still feel the same after this then go to psychiatrist for an evaluation.
Congrats on the 22 days. Hang in there and it will get better.
Love Venora
