I take a low dose of Zoloft. I think it helps. PD is depressing! My feeling is do whatever can be done to ease the pain, emotionally or physically, and maintain a happy, normal life

I have Bipolar also and have been on an antidepressants for years. I am on a new antidepressant called Trintellix before that I was on Lexapro which also worked good and has the least side effects. Trintellix is expensive as it is a new drug. Lexapro is now generic so least expensive.

It is very common to have depression. No it isn't good nor healthy .Talk to his Neurologist about his condition.
There are all kinds of meds that can help with this an yes there can be side effects as with any medicine.
Sometimes it is a process of right an wrong.Take Care God Bless Hugs 😃😃😃😃
