Do antidepressants really help? What does it feel like when they work? I kinda have a theory that if antidepressants worked, people would be taking them recreationally.

I have no idea what it feels like because I've never taken them, but I don't think they are much use recreationally. I'm told that they don't really make you feel "high" and sometimes they have a numbing effect on your emotions. But maybe I should leave this to someone who has experience with them.
