Anti-depressants? Do they help IBD

MrsBrightsideMember

I am asking this question because before my Jpouch when I had UC, I took Prozac for 6 months and my UC disappeared. When I stopped taking it, it came back.
Unfortunately, I did not consider this when agreeing to the Jpouch, I wish I had tried anti-depressants again before that decision.
Anyway, now with problems galore, blockages, strictures, potential chron's, and whatever else is going on in there I am considering asking for anti depressants to see their effect.
I am a naturally highly-strung, nervous type person. Would they help, anyone else used these and if so which type (any which do not effect your sex drive would be best!). Thanks in advance
