Depression vs. Medication?


19 years ago 0 6 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Hello! I've been doing so much reading about Depression, which I believe my Ex suffers from. Although, so many of his symptoms: lack of interest in sex, extreme fatigue, sad mood, irritability, being withdrawn, lack of motivation, extreme apathy, seem to be related to side effects of his medication (Lexapro). How do I know if he is really depressed, in a fallout, or if it's just the side effects of his medication, which he claims he takes for anxiety only. Thank you for any feedback!
