Do you drink while on an antidepressant?

My mom does, but I don't know which antidepressant she's on. Presumably she's talked to her doctor about it. She is not an alcoholic, just an occasionally drinker.

Yes, minimal, but a glass or two of wine a few nights a week on Zoloft. Just makes me super tired.

Welbutrin is not an SSRI.

I am on welbutrin and drink one glass of wine, probably 3 times a week. More than one glass and it undercuts the effectiveness of the welbutrin. I once went drinking with friends and had one of the worst nights of depression ever. Then after the alcohol was out of my system I was fine. But I don't have that problem with one glass.

Yes, while on Lexapro, have never noticed any effects. But then again, I rarely drink more than a beer or a glass of wine in a night.
