I was recently put on antidepressants. They make me feel better but I'm scared they mask the pain and I will feel more at liberty to eat more things, but hurt my bladder worse when the meds run out or lose their effectiveness. I am in a lot of pain and trying not to lose my mind worrying.
Antidepressants
Just take one day at a time and see how it goes. If you feel you need the antidepressants, then maybe you should take them. People with IC have problems with depression, and who wouldn't? You should do what feels right. Can't offer much advice as I haven't taken antidepressants before, although I have taken medication for nerves a long time ago. It didn't help much.
